Or if you haven’t tried it and aren’t really interested, let me know what you’re working on in the comments below. Step 4: Secure the center of the warp yarns. Step 3: Secure the warp and repeat step 1. Then wrap it around the opposite side to the corresponding tab. Step 2: Move the warp bundle through the center of the loom. Have you tried circle weaving yet? I’d love to hear what you think about it compared to normal weaving. Step 1: Create a knot at the end of the yarn and insert it between two tabs. I’ll keep sharing more of the circle weaving as I go. You can see an example of both threads below. This worked really well in the center of my weave, it is so thin that it got very close to the center and I really liked how it turned out. But for this circle weaving, I used just one piece of sock yarn thread. When I normally weave with sock yarn, I will use multiple threads of it at once or combine it with another thread that compliments it, like a worsted weight. The second thread I used was a sock yarn, so it’s super thin. It worked really well and added visual interest. I started with the thin part of the yarn and wove that around, while the yarn became thicker as I went. The first was a thick and thin, hand-spun thread. This walkthrough for Loom answers allWool Weaving Loom Instructions. In this first article we’ll go through the tools you will need to make your first weave and how to properly set up your weaving loom. I ended up trying two different threads and found I like the outcome. Pick up the distaff on the ground and select the loom. When I wove with worsted weight thread, I didn’t like how much the warp threads were showing in the middle, the worsted weight didn’t get as deep into the center as I had wanted. This way I wouldn’t get confused as to which warp thread was next.Ī second discovery I made was that if I started with a thin thread, it wove much better in the middle. I also noticed that because the warp threads are dis-organized, it was much better if I wove higher up on the warp threads and then pushed my weft down to the center. This is because the warp threads are a bit dis-organized in the center and a plain weave helps align them. I tried some other weave techniques, but didn’t like how they turned out. The first thing I found is, I like a few rounds of plain weave in the center. And actually I like the look of the middle, but I don’t want it to be so apparent. So the thing I found myself doing was wondering how can I weave to take away from the clump and make it less noticeable. As you know, with a normally warped lap loom, there is no over lapping of warp threads. One thing I’ve found to be interesting is the large warp clump in the middle. ![]() ![]() Since then I’ve been working at it and trying to figure out what works best for me. In a previous post, I showed how to warp a loom for circular weaving ( post 1 and post 2). ![]()
