How to Tie a Weaver's Knot
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 дек 2011
- A step by step demonstration of tying a weaver's knot by joining two pieces of yarn together with a small tight and very strong knot. It's a knot that works great for joing yarns in crochet or knitting. The weavers knot is also known as a sheet bend knot and can be used to repair a warp thread on a loom or to tie on a new warp to an existing warp. The video demo uses color yarn to help show the process.
Want to know how to use a spinning wheel to spin yarn or other fibers? My channel has a series of short videos on How to use a spinning wheel they're quick and not intimidating. - the link to that play list follows:

The weavers knot is also called the sheet bend knot.

Best demonstration yet encountered.
Thanks for 1) using two colours which makes it easy to see which end you are working with.
2) for doing a close up
3) for using a background which makes it easy to see the technique
4) using yarn and not thread.
5) Good sound and video.
Thanks.
You make it so easy !!!! Thanks …..
I am a weaver and am glad to find this.
This is the way I tie my threads, yarns whatever. My mother taught me this way of knotting threads when she taught me how to sew. When I learned to crochet in my elementary days, this is the same way I tie my yarns. This is the kind of knot I am teaching my kids..but it is only now, when I am already in my 60s that I learned the name of this kind of knot...Thanks.
I needed a secure knot I could depend on for my crocheting. I have watched several on the weaver’s knot. Yours is the best and the only one I got. Very well demonstrated. Your method makes it so easy. Thank you.
Thank you for the compliment. Still shocked as to the number of people who have viewed the demo, but I am delighted they found it useful.
Thanks! I've been amazed by how many people have found it useful. Perhaps more will find value in it with so many us sheltering in place, I know I'm weaving more and my spinning wheel is getting a workout!
THANK YOU! You made ane excellent quality tutorial & video. easily visible with yarn & close up. Clear voice & quick to the point.
everyone should learn this one it's easy & STRONG
Glad it was beneficial!
Nice demonstration. I work as a weaver in a mill, so I tie weaver's knots a lot. There are many variations you can do, depending on the type of yarn (spun or filament) and denier.
wow ! so simple to follow and very useful to know especially when I need to join 2 pieces of yarn together ... thanks bunch Hal !
This is THE BEST video!! It works and the knot IS tight!
Thank you!!
Thanks, that is the best tutorial for weaver's knot I found on the net.
Good stuff my dude. Saved my leather project from running out of thread. Thanks
This knot is even smaller than 'magic knots' demonstrated. I shall be using this one from now on. Thanks very much.
Im crocheter as well, i will be using this knot alot. Thank you
Got it! I've struggled with knots in my crochet and knitting and this one seems to work really well, thank you!
SewEasyCreations That's exactly my reason for watching too. It's great and so simple!
Wow this weavers know video is the best ever! Thank you for sharing!
This is the winner 👍🏽🖖🏽
This is the best one I've found thank you.
#890 on the likes because this IS the best tutorial for joining yarn! Thank you !!
Blush.......
excellent tutorial---best one I've found!! Thank you!!
my mom tried to teach me this year's ago. I Did learn but forgot how. thank you for reteaching me
I learned this when I worked in linen mills years ago, it won’t slip for sure, still use it today when tying anything,
love this, so easy to do , and well demonstrated thank you, great for all my crochet projects :)
Thank you so much!
This is magic
FINALLY! I get it!! Thank you for this! Wishing I had seen this years ago!!
Thank you for an easy and clear explanation. :)
That is in fact a weaver's knot, at least up here in the northeast. Good demonstration of the knot as well. However, weavers just pull down quickly on the purple thread while pinching the threads instead of grabbing the two ends and the purple thread. It's much faster but can't really be demonstrated on video as well as your demo did. I use to watch 3,000 cones of thread at a time weaving narrow fabric. So most of my time I was walking among the cones holding several under my arms at a time. As cones ran out I had to change the cones out without stopping the looms and that required a weaver knot because it was the fastest knot to tie. It's small profile also allowed the knot to slip through the heddles and reeds without catching up on them and wiping out the fabric.
Thanks for kind words. RUclips video of contemporary commercial looms and spinning equipment is amazing. I would never be able to breathe fearing broken thread....which I'm guessing stops the weaving process automatically? automatically.
@@treadlesheddlesandme Normally it just stops the loom when a thread breaks or runs out. Each thread I'd strung through a drop wire that's held over a charged plate by the thread tension. When the thread breaks or runs out the drop wire drops onto the plate and the circuit shuts the loom off. But there are times when it doesn't work and the entire strip of cloth is smashed requiring a new setup and replacing broken parts. We call that a "crash".
It took me a few tries to get it right but once I did waalaa a great knot! Thanks so much. You did a great job, it was user error it took me more than 3 tries to get it right. ol
Thanks! You made it so simple!
Thank you!! I forgot to make this knot and I was so frustrated, but now I can finnaly relax :))
glad it helped! (Embarrassing confession... I've had to watch it again myself because I forgot how!)
:)) that's hilarious! The troublesome knot.
Hy hal... Cheers for this vid.. Looked at others and I wasn't getting it right.. So u have pointed me in the right direction.... Fab fab fab...
thanks a lot this was helpful.
The knot was originally used to tie silk strands together. There was a reward on offer to the person who could solve the problem when a strand snapped.... This was the knot that won a lot of money.... In Nottingham uk... It is called the silk or lace knot as I recall and is just as effective in small diameter rope.
What an interesting knot history lesson!
Thank you! It looks easy & sturdy.
Wow. I've tried lots of knots for crochet and this one doesn't budge, even after cutting the ends closely
very good tutorial, thank u :)
Thanks! Always wondered how to do that!
this is great! thank yo!
Thankyou so much !!!
Awesome!
Thanks

I'm off to tie EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE now!!
I remember most of a rhyme for tying this knot - not that I ever managed it but now it makes sense. the rhyme was - chase a rabbit around a tree, catch him by his left ear. something something something (bit I don't remember) and pull hard to hang him (why are the rhyme's always so violent?) - the way I did manage to tie this was make a slip knot, pass the new thread end through the loop of the slip knot and tighten it down (you can hear a click with some threads, yarn not so much)
I worked in textiles, and never properly how to tie a weaver s knot.
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you. Seems like we're all looking at crafting as a stress reliever these days, glad it makes your efforts a tiny bit easier.
what if its more than 2 pieces of yarn?
