The Woolery is proud to present our series of problem-solving videos in which we'll be answering your crafting questions in the world of weaving, spinning, knitting, crocheting, rug-hooking, or needle-felting!
I've been trying to figure out how to do something like this for the past week and none of my googling brought me this answer until today! Yay! thank you!
I use one side of a warping board to warp my 36" rhl. I also really like your idea of the two clamps with the dowel between them. Thanks for the tutorial.
can you show how idle works, not just forwards and backwards? I can't find a good visual guide for this because the pattern I'm working with now calls for it and something in my pattern is off and it looks wrong
At the local craft store hardly any of the needles have sizes on them. We didn't want to invest in it if it didn't capture my child's interest. Does it matter? Because we are doing everything the videos say and the instructions but the thread is not staying in the fabric.
I 'm a beginning knitter and I just finished a long color block scarf in roving yarn after much effort. (I had bought the yarn for a crochet project that I decided not to make). Learning to knit on roving yarn was a nightmare. The yarn kept splitting on me. And forget about trying to fix a mistake and ripping out a row - the fibers get all stuck together and have to be separated forcibly by hand or by scissor. I grew to detest this kind of yarn and will never work with it again. But now I'm worried... is my scarf going to last? It already looks a little fuzzy from handling!
What is “around the world” you mention when tying choke ties? Not within 36” of the cross but what is the reason for that? Thank you, I love this video, first time warping on board?
I want to spin like a 3-6cm fiber into a fine yarn what do you recommend? its cats down by the way short hair mostly. like ive read the less weight the spindle has the finest yarn it can produce, but what whorl should I look for?
