Breaking thread on loom

Jun 19, 2007 2 Replies

I'm using a 80/20 cotton as warp and am breaking the threads from each side. Any suggestions? Many thanks.



Try posting on rec.crafts.textiles.yarn. I think the weavers hang out there.

Good morning .

1 . before using anything as warpo , make the PULL TEST
  1. release warp tension when not weaving.
  2. use 2 threads instead of one as one thread on the sides taht will become selfedges.
  3. Thread a Nylon thread on the sides while weaving , remove after weaving .. mirjam
