Panhandle Leather for the hardware and 4 ply or UBraidIt has everything. Both sell online.

On this loom you put the pegs back in above the top bar and the weaving slips right off. I’m not sure I understand the last question. The warp is a continuous warp so it doesn’t come undone. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for watching. Enjoy your weaving. Let me know if I can help you.

Try cotton crochet thread for the warp. You can always switch to wool when you have some experience. For the end twining use a two ply fairly thin yarn. Just make sure it’s very strong so it doesn’t break when you’re pulling it through. Some people use the warp thread for the end twining.

Sorry I’m so late responding to your question. I’m roasting in Phoenix right now. 🥵

You are very welcome

Often the raised flowers are embroidered on with two ply yarn. It's a simple backstitch that looks like outlining but it's on top of the cinch. If you need to learn the basics of embroidery there's lots of RUclips videos on that topic. Hope that helps.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 could you do a tutorial?

@@clinchcowhorses I'll add it to my list. My summer is pretty well spoken for due to health problems in my family.

Yes, leave it in until it's no longer useful.

Gently straighten them. I use a screwdriver and press them back into place. Be gentle and just get them back in line.

No. The Cactus Flower loom is an improvement on the Navajo loom. It has self tensioning and easy warping. The end result is the same.

It would be a lot harder and it wouldn’t be balanced.

They are in the same shed for a short distance. If you beat it down hard the warp won’t show.

Already done! Advanced Techniques-Interlock ruclips.net/video/LzQUOPOJHMM/видео.html

I usually teach the turned joint first as most people find it easier to learn. However if you are already doing the interlock, just keep on doing it! I leave it to the advanced techniques but you’re already there!

It took me four days to figure it out, a lot of wasted yarn, hours watching videos and reading written instructions. I finally got a sample that looks acceptable. I still think I will use the other method.

You're welcome

Because it has to stretch between the buckles one more time than the other end. That makes it an odd number of warps.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 Thank you for explaining. Any chance you will do a video using 2 colors on a cinch?

Do you mean two colors of the warp. If so I haven’t done one because Rebecca at UBraidIt has a good one. You can pick it up on RUclips. Look for UBraidIt channel.

I get the 8 ply warp from Panhandle Leather or UBraidIt.

In twining there are no mistakes, only design elements! You can do anything you want. You can even alternate the over two with the over one. If there is room put in a few rows of under one. Then you can switch to under two again.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 wonderful, Thankyou. I’m in love with twining.

Thank you for the kind words. It's nice to hear from weavers the world over.

Glad it helped! Have fun!

The eight ply I get from Panhandle Leather. I get the two ply from UBraidIt.com as Panhandle only has undyed two ply. Hope that helps.

It's eight ply.

Thanks so much 😊

Thank you so much 😀

Sorry I missed your comment and just now saw it. That's a problem that is hard to correct. You can weave the ends in as far as you can and then tuck the end and start a new piece. Just like you would in the design areas. I hope that makes sense.

You are so welcome!

You are so welcome!

You are so welcome!

Glad it was helpful!

I only have 11in left for the end weaving. I'm hoping I can tie extra 2ply onto these to make it work

Hummmm.... if you cut 17' you should have had 2' at each end to weave back in. I measured between my rings and had 13 1/4" so we are close. Are you pulling your yarn pretty taut as you're stringing the warp? Since you only had about one foot you may be able to make it halfway across. I think I'd run those yarns as far as I could and then run the ends back in. Then add on your two ply and see if you can tie them in. Maybe I should make a video on how to do that as someone just said they did a cinch and ran out of yarn at the ends!

Have fun!

Hummmm. Are you buying the alpaca? If so it comes in very large rolls and you would use most of one roll for a 2 x 3 rug. The total amount you need depends on how tight you weave. Of course the tighter the weave the more yarn you use. A looser weave would use less.

You’re welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.

There’s a materials list at the end of the video. There’s several RUclips videos on sizing a breast collar to fit your horse. I just do the average size.

I’m in Colorado, USA. You can check my Facebook page, Woods Canyon Woodworks and Weaving Center for more information.

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks. Have fun!

The problem with a video on that is there’s so many different types of brands it would be hard to do. Some brands you can weave in but others are easier to embroider onto a plain band. If you tell me your brand I could give you a few hints on the best way to do it.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 I thought I could send a picture but I don’t see the option. Any way it’s flying N. So it’s an N with simple wing outline coming off the sides. I didn’t know if you used graphing paper maybe or just free hand.

@@shayenorwood76 I just free hand the designs. Sounds like the wings would be easiest to embroider onto the cinch. To do so, weave a plain band wherever you want the brand and them embroider the flying N onto that plain weave. A simple running stitch is the way to do it. You can email me at spooky1234@yahoo.com. If you send me an email I'll send you a sample of how it's done.

@@carolinespurgeon6016 thank you. I’ll email you.

Good luck! Google has a great conversion ap. That's what I would use.

Impossible. It is tapestry weave.

Thank you. I love to hear from weavers in other countries.

You're welcome

Not yet. String heddles are so quick to make I haven’t tried anything else.

You bet!

Happy to help!
