I can see why your videos are the first ones to pop up on RUclips = you're the best! I've wanted to learn to weave for years but had never done any research or taken classes. I bought a loom on the spur of the moment yesterday and after watching you video on how to warp the loom and this video, I'm actually weaving! I'm so proud of myself and so thankful I found you. I'm sure I'll be watching all of your videos over the next few weeks. Thank you for being such an awesome teacher!
I am new to weaving and purchased my 15 inch Cricket loom in the last month. I took a beginning class at our local Fiber Fair in Asheville,NC and your videos have been invaluable for me as I got home and started to review what I learned. I am hoping you will continue to make an upload beginning videos to include taking the piece off the loom. Thank you again for your videos, they are well made and easy to understand/follow.

do you know how hard it is to find a video about the actual weaving? It's all warp warp warp and then "look how nicely it weaves!" with like six inches of weaving already done. Or they want you to take their class, haha. so thank you for showing how to actually Do The Thing.
You are the best teacher on RUclips for rigid heddle weaving. Believe me I’ve watched a lot. I appreciate all instructions but yours are the ones I understand best. Thank you. Please continue with any information you think we beginning rigid heddle weavers might need. I’m a knitter and would love advice on using stash yarn in weaving. Again, thank you. Someone said your soft voice and clear speech really helps . I agree.
I agree. After watching many videos I believe yours are the clearest and easiest to understand. My loom should be here next week. I was terrified of trying to set up my warp, but after watching your video I’m confident I can do it.
Hi there... I received a lovely 24 inch Heddle loom for my birthday and have been having a very difficult time warping . Thank you so much for your great video!
I have a 25" rigid heddle loom but it's hard to manage (I don't have a place to just set it up) and all I really want to do is make scarves. I was thinking about the Cricket but wanted to see it being used. Your demonstration gave me enough information to make my decision. I just placed the order. :)
Thank you again for the clear, effective teaching - you do an amazing job! I literally went out and bought the yarn in your video. Wasn't it in another video where you were demonstrating warping? It would be lovely to see your finished project! Thanks again for sharing!
Love this tutorial. I’m a brand new weaver and your warping tutorial really finally gave me the confidence to try it. I noticed you didn’t use waste yarn to begin weaving?
Come by the shop and I'll show you ---- sounds like I might be going on a road trip this summer!!It's only 697 miles from me.....12 hour drive! IT would be fun though :D
Hello, I'm taking my first weaving class on August 26 here in my hometown in upstate NY. Why do you leave the yarn at an angle after the "pinch" of each pass of the shuttle? Thanks for an interesting tutorial! Lisa
Thanks to your video's I got enough courage to venture into rigid heddle weaving! As a beginner, I was wondering why it is important to leave the angle. Doesn't that create uneven tension?
I'm having an issue with little to no shed when my heddle is in the down position, I've watched your video several times and I can't see a problem with the warp, it's correctly over the back beam and the tension seems fine. Also the heddle when down seems to fit loosely in the slots, any help would be appreciated. Love your videos
You could do the opposite from what I do on the video and it would have no effect on the weaving. I choose to weave from the right in high and left in low because “left is low” is easy for my students to remember. ☺️
Shuttle is another word, from weaving into the rest of the world, referring to persons or things that go back and forth, a to be to a to b to a to b.... Case in point, "Shuttle Diplomacy." Noticeably, the heddle(s) that go up and down, up, down, up, down, did not win this honor. Perhaps in sports, if a team began to win, lose, win, lose, win, lose, one might call it a heddle team? Thanks for the videos.
Shed: In the 12th century, shed meant to segregate or separate. Thus, in weaving the shed is the separation created by segregating a patterned number of warps from the others. How this came to denote a snake shedding its skin, or a slight structure with one or more open walls, is beyond me.

this video was incredibly helpful! I was getting so frustrated trying to use the loom, and this made it so clear :-)
Would love to see more projects on the cricket loom, love your soft voice that is calming
These are the best videos! I can't wait to see hem stitch! Thank you so much.

Hi there... I received a lovely 24 inch Heddle loom for my birthday and have been having a very difficult time warping . Thank you so much for your great video!
Thank you so much for doing this! You are so knowledgeable and calm. I feel much better prepared to try!
You have been a wonderful help to me throughout assembling my loom, warping, and weaving. You are a wonderful teacher!
Great instructions! So clear and easy to follow, and presented in a lovely manner. Thank you!
I love your Tutorials! They have helped
me use it. I also have. A Long Needle too!
Thank you so much!! very calming and easy to follow!!

You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you, thank you!!🙏🏽
Your videos are so clear and you explain things so well. Thank you.. wish I could take classes from you.. I’m in Washington state though! Suzette
Such an excellent video. I learned about how to weave a more drapery scarf plus so many other techniques. I really am enjoying your videos.
Awesome tutorial Leo! Thxs so much.✌🏻🐚🌊🌈
This is SO helpful. Thanks
Thank you again for the clear, effective teaching - you do an amazing job! I literally went out and bought the yarn in your video. Wasn't it in another video where you were demonstrating warping? It would be lovely to see your finished project! Thanks again for sharing!
It would be great for you to do a video on removing the fabric from the loom and finishing the piece
Beautiful yarn.
A perfect instruction, thanks
Love this tutorial. I’m a brand new weaver and your warping tutorial really finally gave me the confidence to try it. I noticed you didn’t use waste yarn to begin weaving?
I would love to see how to finish this up. I am also looking into getting a loom. The yarn is so pretty.
Come by the shop and I'll show you ---- sounds like I might be going on a road trip this summer!!It's only 697 miles from me.....12 hour drive! IT would be fun though :D
I wish you had classes on Skillshare as I'm to far away to take a class in person.
Extra nice! From Alberta. How would a person finish a weave without fringes? Something like the right and left selvedges? TIA
Great video.

So pretty! What yarn did you use?
@@thevioletunicornweaving Thank you!
Sorry for the late reply-just saw this. I was using Shawl in a Ball by Lion Brand. ☺️
@@thevioletunicornweaving Thank you :)

Amazing thank you!
Thank you! You are an awesome instructor! Did you do anything to prepare the yarn for the shuttle or did you just wrap it straight from the skein?
I'm having an issue with little to no shed when my heddle is in the down position, I've watched your video several times and I can't see a problem with the warp, it's correctly over the back beam and the tension seems fine. Also the heddle when down seems to fit loosely in the slots, any help would be appreciated. Love your videos
@@thevioletunicornweaving OK, pictures sent
Que precioso el telar mee encanta
merci beaucoup 😊
What is the reasoning you place the heddle in the high and low position depending on what side the material is through? Thank you!
You could do the opposite from what I do on the video and it would have no effect on the weaving. I choose to weave from the right in high and left in low because “left is low” is easy for my students to remember. ☺️
Hi! What is the brand and size of your yarn ?
I am having an issue with the weaving part - when I use the heddle why would the yarn after I beat it, becoming crooked? Thanks! :-)
what yarn are you using
❤
