- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- Just a little brief video about how we use our 1930's Union Rug Loom #36. It's so neat to weave on and it's so beautiful. We love our loom and her name is Rosie. We're still new to this but are enjoying the process of weaving so much! It's a perfect craft for our little homestead farm, Windhaven Farm.
Thanks for taking the time to show us your loom and how to weave on it.
This is fantastic and exactly what I want to make on my new loom. Thank you for doing this video, there is so much to learn!! I just got a tabletop loom, so will not have the luxury of the toot treadles! I think my cat will do the same thing that yours is doing...,.they get jealous of the attention given to something other than them!!!
Thank you!
I just love seeing your buddy in the background!
This is actually how the industrial revolution got kicked off. Back in the old days, there was a very high demand for fine cloth under garments. Yes, underwear! But as you can see here, it was a very time consuming labor intensive process. The demand for faster, more efficient looms drove builders to make higher precision machine tools to make faster and bigger looms. As the price of cloth came down, the supply went down to and it just kept feeding the demand.Thus, the beginning of the industrial age!
Very educational video!! That's too cool..!!! Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Thank so much! The white strings are call the warp. They are tied off in the back on the take up reel. And then on the front on the apron. Each one has to be threaded through the heddles and the reed! time consuming for sure! But neat once it's all up and running!
I also have a Union Loom. Loved your video. Wanted to see more. :D
I have an old Union loom. The reed and shafts are 42" wide. It has a massive wooden frame and is at least five feet wide. The previous owner made rugs on it. I got it for a song and have used it to make scarves and sweaters but I have been making wool yarn in my spare time so I haven't done any weaving since the beginning of this year.
i have always wanted a loom love your videos
Grandma got helped get the family through the Great Depression with her carpet making. She also hid her hooch mash in the garden under flats of veggies during prohibition.
This haircut machine is one of my needs. This is what you can send me to Bangladesh
Thanks you for this video, I hope to get a loom an start making things! An also love your dog in the background he/she looks like he/she is learning what to do haha so cute! I have 4 an they are almost always under my feet like an baby! God bless- from Alabama!!
That is Ratchet, my daughter's goofy dog. He likes to just hang out when we are working in the studio.
Great video, I'm starting a rug at school, so looking forward to learning.
Yep! "Pretty cool!" Please do a detailed examination of your wonderful loom. 👍
Beautiful!!!🌷💖🌷👏👏👏
absolutely fantastic!
Great video thanks for making.
Just saw your weaving. Pretty cool. I just made a back strap loom. going to practice on that.
Cool! I think it's really cool! Way to go on bringing a little history back to life! I wonder what life would be like if we didnt have the crazy mechanized looms or spinners?
Nice demonstration!
I want one of those. and thanks for a good explanation
It is cool.
Thanks for sharing, Sherri :) So that's your famous loom@
Beautiful rugs! Would love to see them! You chose great color combinations. I'm curious how many you're able to wind on the loom before you need to cut them off and finish them?
Thanks for sharing!
Hi! Thanks for the video. Do you have one showing warping of your loom?
Hi , love your videos !!! Do you think it would be possible to make more videos about your weaving loom? Such as set up and how to warp it? I would welcome how to videos and would be willing to pay.
I hope to be able to do more videos, we are waiting to get better equipment!
Bende çözgü ve diyer teknikler hakkında bilgi paylaşırsanız sevinirim ihtiyacım var sevgi ve selamlar kolaygelsin.🙋♂️👍
Very helpful!
Very nice explanation
Sherri, I marvel at your skill and patience! I've been following your blog for several years and you always have something interesting to share.
What are those white, vertical strings called, and do you have to tie/thread/'string' them in place, too?
Can you demonstrate warping it?
Love this type of rug, I have 2 from my grandmother that I cherish. I would love to make rugs and table runners. Is there a way to make this type of item with a simpler loom? I have seen the other type of rag rugs but they are thick and bulky. Ideas and advice are very welcome.
I have a union 36 and have no idea how to warp it and then thread it. Do you have videos of beginning to end product
I bought this exact loom this past summer, but haven't yet put it together. Do you know where I might information on how to assemble it?
do you have a video showing how to put all the thread on?
Please show us a update on your farm :) God bless you and your family :)
I am wondering if it is possible to weave other things beside rugs on this loom. Have you woven anything else on this loom?
I have one almost like this, I'm trying to find information on it. I got the loom from my aunt, it was my great grandmas. I would sit for hours watching her and my grandma make rugs. I want to make them to on it. but don't know how to do the strings and stuff. can you help?
I would like to know what size warp you use such as 8/2 cotton, how wide do you cut your weft such as is it 3/8 of an inch wide and what size reed do you use. thanx
Can you please tell me where to buy the materials to start?
do you have a manual for your loom do you know where I could obtain one. Just purchased one and having trouble getting it set up.
Are the cone holders on lower back beam metal or wood?
👍💯😄
i inherited a loom that looks very similar to this, but is in pieces. It was my mother's. I'm not sure if I even have all the pieces, but would love to try to use it. Any suggestions on how to find out how to put together? and where to find supplies and any info would be appreciated
+Leisa Streets See if you have a Fiber or Weaver's Guild nearby. Most regions of the country have one; and their members are a storehouse of information.
How do you thread the warp yarns through the loom in the first place, is it done by hand and time consuming?
+moles9999 YES
Great video. I am trying to get to weaving a rug. How many ends per inch do you warp?
Usually, I do about 12 to 15 ends per inch.
I have one of them
