OK, OK, I'll confess! I don't like fringes on most things. There, I said it out loud. Hopefully the weaving community won't ban me for life. Thank you for this careful, well explained tutorial for the anti-fringe crowd! 😂 (I agree with you that the heart scarf really benefits from having the fringe to make the warp colors pop.)
No judgement from me, fringe or no fringe, do what is best for you! 😀
Thanks! I’m just going to give you 50 now because you more than deserve it!! Thank you for making so much very valuable information available AND being such a great teacher-it’s a gift!
Wow, thank you so much Carla, that is VERY generous! 🥰
I recently bought a 32 inch Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom and was going through tutorials on how to use the loom. I quilt , knit, crochet and sew but have never tried to weave. I'm 65 years old and love creating all types of treasures. Your instruction stood out from all the others. You do such a wonderful job of explaining how to do everything. I will be signing up for classes when I get my loom set up. Thank you for such great instructions.
Thank you Keran! ❤️
This is exactly what I need at this moment! Ends with no fringe! Thanks for sharing!!! ❤
You're most welcome! 😊
I learn so much from your videos. Thank you for taking your art time to teach, coach and train us. 😘
You're welcome Barb, and thank you for the kind feedback ❤️
I love this idea for finishing without a fringe! Your tutorial (as always) is clear and easy to follow! Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Thank you very much for this video. I am one of those who do not like fringes at all, for various reasons. Any way to get rid of them is very much appreciated.
You're welcome!
Thank you for teaching me a new way of finishing a project. I do not always desire a fringe, and this is just the way to fix that issue.
You're welcome Audrey!
Great episode, and I agree, this technique is perfect for a scarf for a man who will not want fringe as well as placemats
Thanks Kathleen!
One way to easily tell 1 inch is to measure the joints of your fingers. On my first finger on my right hand, from the tip to the main joint wrinkle, is exactly one inch. So I carry a one inch ruler with me where ever I go. 💖🌞🌵😷
Thank you for another excellent video. I used this technique on a baby blanket woven with acrylic yarn - over 400 ends! It worked out very well, and I rather enjoyed the rhythm of the sewing.
I have a tip about sewing in shorter fringe (over 1" long). Weave the tapestry needle through the chosen path for the fringe thread you are working on until the leading edge of the eye is even with the fabric (or the knot). Use a needle threader if necessary to insert the warp thread through the eye. Carefully pull the needle through the weft treads until the needle pulls free of the warp thread that is in the eye. I hope that makes sense!
That is an excellent tip, thank you for sharing!
WOW! Thanks for all your effort in replying to my noob query. Easy peasy! As a knitter, weaving in ends is nothing new to me, but I wasn't sure if it could be applied to a weaving project. Might have to sell my 2 spinning wheels - a Louet S75 and an Ashford Tradi - and get me a rigid heddle or something, now that I know that its possible to go fringeless. LOL Great video! 👍 from Alberta, Canada!
I hope you can get the loom without selling your wheels, homespun looks great in weaving too!
@@KellyCasanova Right on! Thx again!
Thank you so much Kelly. I just recently started weaving a tablecloth and kept thinking about frinches or not. I must admit I haven't made a choice yet, but this is a good possibility! Greetings out of the Netherlands. 🌷

You're welcome Marjan!
Thank you!.. love your weaving and projects!
Thank you so much Rosa! 🥰
Thank you for this video. I must admit I was thinking to myself oh gosh that will take a long time and then the best line in the tutorial "I never did say this would be a quick technique did I." I started laughing. You read my mind. Haha. Great video! Thanks again for taking the time to teach this method.
😂 ❤️
I think if you left it just a little longer, you could loop them over each other in a sort of braid-like edging which would be lovely as well.
Thank you for making this very clear and instructive tutorial! I’m a beginner and I’ve been planning to make some place mats but I wasn’t really happy with my hemming options. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. 🥰 I noticed your ends were not all weaved in to the exact same length. Was that a deliberate choice? I imagine weaving them all to the same length might make a visible line in the finished fabric. Is that so, or am I overthinking it? 😊
I did stagger them a little bit, but as I mentioned in the video, these kind of things do depend on the project and how well the threads blend in. If you weave them all in to the exact same point, it is likely that a visible line will occur, so a little bit of staggering is a good thing 😊
@@KellyCasanova Thank you! I can’t wait to try this out. Now I’m really inspired to finally get my place mat project on the loom. ❤️
Thanks: like the different options
Thanks Tammi!
I am a new weaver looking for a way to go fringeless that doesn't involve a sewing machine. Thank you for this tutorial! I'm doing mostly tapestry at this point, small things, and I find the fringe is often distracting. Could you explain to me what you mean by a hemstitch knot? I can't find anything about that online.
This is hemstitching, it's a way of securing your weaving so that the weft doesn't unravel off the loom -ruclips.net/video/gogJgvjweqQ/видео.html
@@KellyCasanova Thank you so much! Super helpful.
Thank you again for a great tutorial. Was the scarf washed before you did NO fringe video?
I did wet finish this one before making this video, but normally I would needle weave the scarf ends in first and then wet finish.
that looks great albeit time consuming! How do you finish it if you do have a sewing machine, ie for a towel that you will hem? I have done hemstitch to secure my fabric while I took it off the loom. Can I just cut the hemstitching off (bearing in mind your videos as to cutting fabric, especially to wet finish first!) and then hem on the machine? I'm thinking I will have to subscibe to get all the tips!
I'm lucky enough to have a serger, so I serge my raw ends, then machine hem.
If you have a sewing machine though, you can do one or two rows of zig zag stitch close to the raw edge to help secure it, then carry on with your hemming. A double fold hem is best.
Thank you, Kelly! Very clear, as always! I have a question: Could you skip the hem stitching and just wrap the warp thread up and needle weave it in?
I haven't tried that, but I don't think it would make for a stable edge. The hemstitching provides a nice strong and secure edge.
@@KellyCasanova You know, I think you are probably right. Thanks!
Thanks!
If the weaving isn’t balanced but weft faced, then I don’t do the over/under weaving into it, only hide the warp end threads between the weaving? So far that’s how I’ve done it as I usually make warp faced items. I always go in to the next ‘line’. I’m interested in learning other tecniques though.
You can do either way, whatever is invisible enough. It's not too hard to hide fringe threads in a weft faced weave 😊
I am having a hard time seeing where to go in through the knot. I am assuming that you work on the piece looking at the right side, so do you put the needle through the knot on the back?
That is correct. If you find it too difficult to go through the knot at the back it's not absolutely necessary, it just helps to hold the thread very firmly before you start needle weaving into the work. You could go in with the needle just above the knot and it would still work.
Hi Kelly, do you have an Australian supplier for the tapestry needles please?
There are a bunch of places you can get them, I got mine online from here - www.craftonline.com.au/products/clover-gold-tapestry-bent-tip-needles-jumbo-2-pack
Thank you! And thanks for your teaching skills, I really appreciate them 🙂
Gracias!
You're welcome Silvia!
Hi Kelly, it looks like you’ve hem stitched around 4 warp threads at a time. Would it be easier to “sort things out” when going thru the knot and needle weaving up, if I hem stitched around 2 warp threads at a time instead?
Hi Yasmin, yes, that is a good point, that would help reduce the bulky bobbly bits at the edges 👍
@@KellyCasanova Thank you!
When you do a hem stitch, can't you just, you know, cut it off? Soon I buy my first loom, so I've never woven actually (apart from bands with tablet weaving)
No. Because when you're hemstitching, you're encasing groups of threads in a type of knot. If you cut that too close, the knots will come undone. It's ok to cut a short fringe, but not too close.
So, I wove in the ends, wet finished and cut the threads, but once in a while I have an end poking through to the right side of the piece. How do I prevent that from happening?
Is it poking through because it was woven in that way? Or is it the very end of the yarn tail poking through?
Yarn tails keep poking through after washing.
Where can I learn this colorful sampler?
This one is from Debby Greenlaw's second book - amzn.to/3WSBrWf
СПАСИБО!!! 💐
what if I didnt put in a hem stitch?
The ends do need to be secured before you do this, otherwise you will have weak edges that start to unravel. You could hemstitch off the loom, it's not as easy but it is doable. You could also do knots, but these would still be visible once you had woven the fringe in.
looks like a lot of work
It does take a while, for sure!
