When you use a rigid heddle loom you are locked into the dent/EPI of your heddle. If you want to weave with a smaller yarn but don't have the right heddle size available you can try doubling up your warp. Our Bluegrass Mills 6/2 Cotton yarn has a recommended sett of 15 epi. You can achieve a sett of 16 epic by using 2 strands of yarn for each warp end. Amy shows you how to get a doubled up warp set up on your rigid heddle loom.
This technique will be very useful if you're using a rigid heddle loom to join in our Woolery Weave-Off towel contest.

You don't have to have 4 threads in the slits, you can put them in the holes and spaces...works perfectly

Why can’t you just thread the holes before you pack the beam at the same time you are doing the slots and then not have to transfer doubled ends to the holes? Would it cause a tension problem or abrasion when you pack your beam? New weaver here. I have not done a doubled threads project. Just curious.

You can.

After watching this, I understand well why you like using the elastics to hold the ends of the rigid heddle. Good idea.

thank you! I needed to see this!

For future reference, when you’re doing a double warp, you pull a double through the slot, then a double through the hole, then you just tie up nothing else to do you have made more work for yourself than necessary. Now you are going to have to go back and re-thread from the slot to the whole a double.

I’d love to know the pattern for your sweater!

Question. When you first start placing your warp on the peg, could you just thread 2 ends in each slot and 2 ends in each hole to accomplish the 15/16 epi?

Yes. And save a lot of time too!

This however just means you doubled up the thread thickness and not truly weaving between all singe threads. That creates a unique texture vs just weaving single strands of thread.
