O I’m excited to see what I can learn from you. I’ve been weaving on and off for 20 some years and I love this idea as I want to learn different techniques. Thank you so much for offering this
OMG I'm loving all these. I hope to learn things from you. I mostly crochet but these patterns are so cool and I love your color choices. Thank you for sharing these.
Just discovered your videos, and really looking forward to trying some of these out as placemats. I’m interested in weft faced techniques so thank you for showing these.
Hi, these are great tutorials. I have a rigid heddle only and I’m happy to use pick up sticks. But what is the best way to warp as the warp draft is for 4 shaft. So would I put ends for shafts 1 and 3 in holes and ends for 2 and 4 in slots? I could buy a second heddle and if I did then I know it turns it into 3 shaft with pick up stick for fourth shaft. Or I can make heddles too. Just not sure how to get started!
If I were you, I would start out with the "Weave Krokbragd on a Rigid Heddle" video that is specifically aimed at RH weavers. To set it up for that particular pattern, warp your loom with 33 ends (an odd number), making sure that the first and last threads go through slots. The krokbragd pattern is kind of uniquely suited for the RH, though. Beyond that, I have to confess that I am not a RH weaver and would have to do some experiments myself before I could advise you. I have more experience weaving multi-shaft patterns on tapestry or frame looms, which is totally doable and in some ways simpler than adapting those patterns for RH! There are a number of patterns I'd like to make specifically for 2 shafts, but I haven't gotten around to making them yet.
That's right, 2 ends per dent at 6epi. In other words, there are 6 *working* ends per inch but 12 *actual* ends per inch. You're using two threads together for double thickness and treating them as a single thread.
Just found this wonderful series when I did a search for boundweave. Thanks for putting this together!
i love your tutorials, so clear and without any superflos, , I am German , so sorry for any mistakes in written english,
Thank you very much!

Thank you so much! I appreciate the encouragement! :)
Wonderful patterns! Overshot is my fave!
Smaller samples, brilliant!

By doubled ends you mean two ends per dent at 6epi?
