Your common sense approach to weaving is a breath of fresh air. I’ve lost count of the number of people that have told me I can’t do something in the way that works for me. Another self-taught weaver.
Thank them politely and move on. Or explain your method and why it works for you, if you can be bothered. Most naysayers unfortunately don't want to listen, but only to be heard 🙄
The skit is cute Kelly. You are fantastic. I have learned so much from you. You are down to earth and not overboard with unnecessary equipment. You make weaving fun because it's simple. Thank you so much for sharing.
Lovely words, thank you! ❤️
Due to some physical limitations, I usually indirect warp. To save double handling and preserve colour placement, I will wind the warp on my warping board, tie it very securely and then dye it. Granted, there have been people (in fb weaving groups) insist that I should dye in hanks, wind into cakes and then direct warp... because that's the 'right way' to do it. My only response these days is "I love it when people tell me I'm arting wrong".
😆 Seriously, what difference does it make to other people if you have your own method that works? It's just weird to expect everyone to do everything the same way, we're not robots!
Thank you Kelly, for sharing your clever warping solution.
yes! I've used a warping board to "hybrid" warp my rigid heddle loom for about 2 years now. I live in a small townhome and by using the warping board, I can direct warp 8+ yards in very little space.
Cute skit. Gave me a smile. I always appreciate your tips!
Love this act of yours. Message come laud and clear. Thank you Kelly. ❤
Loved the skit. My personal way of doing things is to listen to 1 or more people showing how to do something then I pick one to start with and modify form there.
I am so with you on that. I have always done things that work for me and if they don't work, I try it again fixing the mistakes or I try something else. You don't know if you don't try. That's how new things are discovered. As long as you don't get hurt, try anything.
That's a very good method 😊
Love this! I use my pegloom when I direct warping😊
I use my warping board for direct warping, almost every time. Helps in so many ways!
Academy Award for Kelly!
Takes a sweeping bow 😆
I don't have a long table, so I use a little one with a coat rack clamped to it, at whatever distance I need. I like to spread the warp to multiple pegs when I have a wider warp.
Thats so true, those people need to learn what the phrase "tips and tricks" mean. Im a self-taught weaver myself and on my very first weaving project, I did direct warping, the problem was I didnt have a warping peg, so I improvised, and used a broom standing upright wedged between two chairs, be it the end of the broom handle stood about 2 feet taller then where my loom was clamped to, but I made it work, and it did, very well, and I was able to start and finish my first project.
Academy award performance! 😄 👏 I like to try all the methods for doing things and then I learn which will suit my purposes best. For me, it’s not a matter of having to do it a certain way - it’s doing it the best way to suit you and the project.
Exactly!
I warp my backstrap loom with a rigid heddle, two kitchen chairs, and something to weight both chairs so they don’t move, a few cans of vegetables to keep my heddle upright, and a yarn ball spinner. If it functions as intended, it works. Weaving was happening well before all these new fangled gadgets and machines.
Well said!
I liked the skit. I'll admit, I'll admit, I don't see what the "problem" is with your warping method. If it works, it works! For me, figuring out how to do it something, and how I can maybe improve on it is most of the fun of weaving anyway. Good video, as are your others. Thank you. (FYI .. my last warp was from my table to a small step ladder with the warping peg ... I weighted the step ladder down with heavy books so the ladder would slid as I wound up the warp .... it was jerry-rigged, but it worked! made me happy.)
That's wonderful, you're making it work for you! 😀
I do me, you do you is the most common sense approach to use. Necessity is the mother of invention.
Loved this video Kelly!!! I love how you come up with ideas and give solutions to all kinds of problems, and by the way I loved your performance too, especially the "so rude" part 😂
😆
Loved the video! It was very cute. Thanks for the idea!
Thank you, it's kind of fun arguing with myself 😆
I love this. Permission to innovate! 🥰
Go forth and innovate! 😀
@@KellyCasanova ☺️
Makes sense! Thank you for being a blessing
I have been using my vacuum handle for a warp peg. Works good for me. 😊
Hi Kelly, I hope you're all OK xx ❣️❣️❣️
Thankyou so much for sharing your video podcasts and your expertise, both are very much appreciated. 🌟✨️🌟
I have a Frame Loom that has a Warping Board on the underside of it. I had wondered how I could utilise it to Warp my other Looms with, 🤔🤔you've just given me the answer and I'm so glad that you showed how it can be used. 🌟🌟
Love the Skit, I thought Catherine Tate was in the building 😅😅.
Happy Weaving Fibre Friend 🎉🐑🥰
I hope you all have a Wonderful Weekend 🌟✨️🌞
Take care and stay safe
Lots of love, Blessings and Big Hugs Jen xxxx ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂⚘️⚘️
What a brilliant piece of lateral thinking. Could possibly use my inkle loom the same way! It addresses another dilemma I had. By applying this idea to an earlier post, the warping board now provides the extra pegs needed to warp a wider project where you recommend dividing the warp across a number of pegs. Thank you for what is an obvious solution to a problem that had stumped me.
Yes, the inkle would also work, as long as you can sit it flat and clamp it so it won't move 😊
I direct warp onto my rigid heddle using chairs turned upside down on top of another chair.
I just warped a 8.5 yard warp onto the rigid heddle for baby blankets. Im using 8/4 cotton. And i do cut off the blankets as i go and then lash on the beginning of the next piece. Works out well for me. No need to buy a warping board
That's great, I used to wind yarn skeins with chairs before I bought a yarn swift. There are so many ways to achieve the results you need (and lots of ways to save money too!)
Hi Kelly, Andrew here 😁👋,
Now how I warp, is really silly,
A small unit, means a small space, I place my dining chairs upside down on the dining table, warp as normal and lot's of math, and walking round in circles.
Now as you know I've built a countermarch 24 inch loom, for my,
unit of one bedroom, 8×12 living room, (small as you can get)ha,ha,ha,
We all learn in different ways, I've had to adapt everything I've learnt over the years, from a 2200√2 metre home to,18 to a 22 foot caravan, to my home now,of 80√2 metre home,
What I've learnt is simple, and yes I've used a door,
1) Design the article,
2) measure the length, 3)calculate the thread count,
4)wrap up the way you need depending on space,
5)warp the loom(this is always the hardest part,
6) sit and look at the work,
7) make sure of your tie up,
Tread the peddles🤓
8) Weave your project,
These are step's on my pathway to an incredible project, and
Now I've finished my linen sheets and pillow cases, washing drying, ironing, then cutting and with my singer sewing machine I sew my sheets together 😁
Then collapse,
My counterpain is next,
I've got to choose a pattern and design, colour scheme, the the threads and place my dining chairs back on my dinning table for warping.
As a veteran Weaver I've had to change with every environment I've moved into over the years, from a unit to a caravan travelling around Australia, to the home I sold in Seaford (Melbourne) to 1 look after my mother and work, in the western suburbs (Albion) near sunshine.
A small unit doesn't mean I can't adapt to any situation life throughs at me.
My weaving hasn't gone away because I've got a small unit, it means I've got less space to store my yarn and thread's that's all.
Kelly keep up your great work, and be happy in your day's you can weave.
Sooo proud to know your there!
😎🤓😎🤓😎🤓😎
Now all you need to do it adapt the loom to convert to a table and back again, wouldn't that be efficient use of space! 😆 I used to spend a bit of time in Albion at a friend's place when I lived in Melbourne.
@@KellyCasanova thankyou Kelly,
I must say, Ridley st is a real interesting place to live,🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Love the skit, love the insight, love The Online Weaving School ❤❤❤
Thank you 🥰🥰🥰
We are so on the same page ... or peg
😆
Thankyou Kelly, that's a great idea💓 Never thought about how to use my table more productively👍
You're welcome Judy!
I've never tried this. It looks pretty idiot proof and I'm a bit of a weaving idiot. Thanks for this😁👍
I love your videos, learned so much from you, even bought an 8 shaft table loom after watching a few of your videos which helped me choose. I have it sitting on an adjustable folding table, I use a computer chair to sit on and because of arhtritis and a torn shoulder I have my knees just under the table so the loom sits lower and does not hurt my shoulder this way, the loom also sits on styrofoam as it kept preventing me from turning my cranks, but kifted it just enough so it does not slide off the table as it sits with a little bit of the legs below the table top. Got to find ways to do things differently sometimes.
I love that you're trying different things to suit your situation, it's wonderful 🥰
@@KellyCasanova Oh and when I put my Ashford 8 shaft table loom together, I watched your video and paused as i went along, not to make mistakes lol, thank you so much for the good advices and videos you put out for us.
Love the play. 💖💖👍👍🙏🙏👍👍💖💖You are correct there are many more ways to do ANYTHING, that's why God gave us brains and not be like brainless jellyfish. 💖💖👍👍🙏🙏
If you had a wider warp, would it work to turn the warping board 90 degrees and then use the pegs to split your warp? I only have 1 peg for direct warping, but I might try this with my warping board next time I direct warp for dishtowels, to get sectional warps.
Yes, absolutely!
Kelly, you have the “dream craft table,” if there is such a thing. What are the table dimensions?
It's a billiard table with the cover on. I'm not sure of the dimensions but it's very big and yes, very handy, lots of space!
But surely the warping board is just a series of direct warping pegs that are in a square
I used to add the warping peg to a radiator and then move the loom to the length I wanted and then had to weight everything down. It was tricky and not perfect, but as I'm self taught too and in a limited space, I have always had to improvise
🤣👍
