Very important topic. Thanks for the tutorial ❤
So so helpful. Thank you. I am getting ready to try a fairly fat hand dyed yarn and you helped me understand what I am getting into and how to be successful with it.
We're so glad this tip video was helpful! Enjoy your yarn experiments.
Thank you. As a newbie weaver, this is very useful information to consider, especially in deciding if and where to use yarns from my knitting stash!
Glad it was helpful! Happy stash busting!
Wonderful information, thank you so much. You have answered most of my questions 😊😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great information, thanks!
Thanks for the note! We are glad it was good information for you. :)
This is so important. I had to abandon a project because my warp kept breaking. So frustrating and wasteful.
It really is frustrating when the warp breaks (sometimes, despite our best efforts, it breaks anyway), but we hope this helps! Thanks, and happy weaving!
Thank you for this tutorial! Can the warp threads be thinner than the warp threads? I have a 8 dent loom and trying to see if 8/4 warp threads will work for it.
Yes, absolutely. You can explore different thread combinations, and sampling is the best way to try a few and see what you like!
