Weaving One Scarf in Only One Day on an Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom!

Not too long ago, I was bragging that it was possible to warp and weave a whole scarf in only one day. However, I realized that I had never proved it! So, I decided to take on the challenge to make a complete scarf in the course of only one day. In this video, I show you how I managed to achieve this challenge and exactly how much time it took. #weaving #rigidheddle #loom

THE YARN
I used Lion Brand yarns from their Heartland collection for this project. Here are the names of the colors:
-Great Smoky Mountains (grey)
-Canyonlands (golden yellow)
-Capitol Reef (pink).
In total, I used one whole ball of grey and a little bit of a second ball. I also used one whole ball of golden yellow and a little bit of a second ball. I used just a little bit of the pick yarn, so one ball was enough.

MY LOOM
In the video, you can see my Ashford rigid heddle loom. Its width is 32" (80cm) and I love it! If you are in the US and looking for the same loom, The Woolery has it! Here's their website: woolery.com/ashford-rigid-hed...

This was an absolute joy to watch. I don't need to learn another craft because I don't have enough time to do them all (I love quilting, spinning and crochet) but I think you may have convinced me because your scarf is gorgeous.

GREAT video! Beautiful job! How did you take finish the ends where you changed color (I saw them hanging loosely.

@Curly_n_Yarny 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks!! I always let a bit of weft yarn hanging out when I change colors. I cut it after when finishing. I feel like it helps the yarn full out evenly in the wet finishing process. For this project, everytime I wanted to change colors, I split the ply of the weft yarn in two and pull it out a few inches from the warp. I took one ply and I ran it to the selvedge and over it and back in the woven piece to where I let the other piece of ply stuck out. (It's a bit hard to explain in words, I'll try to make a video about it soon) ☺️ It makes the changing of colors almost invisible!

Thank you 🥰 While your project is on the loom, do you see little gaps in between your picks? If not, this could be a hint that you are indeed beating too hard. I hope this helps 😊

I remember I decided to make a bag for my grandads birthday so I started warping and the warp kept snapping so I had to figure something else out to weave So at 8 pm i started warping by quarter to 9 I was done warping and by 2 am a small selvedge rug was made I made it on my ashford rigid heddle so it was relatively small And it was a perfect present to give

@Curly_n_Yarny 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for sharing your story! I'm sure your grandad was really happy with your gift 😊 rigid heddle looms are great for those quick projets 😁

@jeannetterheaume3246 2 жыл бұрын

I saw you used a ladder and a stik to put your wool around. How do you keep the ladder in place? Do you have a film that shows that more closely and showing how you wind the wool up? Another question is it necessary to use the same size wool for the warp as well as the werf? Thank you

@Curly_n_Yarny 2 жыл бұрын

I do have a video in which I explain how I use my step ladder for direct warping 😊 Here's the link kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aZmRjK1qv5mun6c.html It's a video that I have made to explain in details what I do when I direct warp my rigid heddle loom. For your second question, my answer is yes and no. It really depends on many things like the yarn you wish to use, the size of your heddle and the pattern you wish to make. So in general, no, your warp and weft yarn don't have to be the same size. In the project of this video, I wanted to have a plaid effect and I decided to used the same yarn for the warp and weft to help achieve my desired pattern. I hope this helps 😄

When warping do you tie off each color before starting the new color?

@Curly_n_Yarny 3 жыл бұрын

I do this most of the time! The only times that I don't tie off a color is when I plan on doing only 1 loop of another color. In other words, I don't cut the first color and I warp my loop of the second color. Then, I just keep on warping with the first color. I hope this helps you 😊

Sure you can 😊 You can make a scarf up to 16" large if you warp the whole width of your loom.

@sharonmurrell9291 3 жыл бұрын

I just finished a scarf on my new 10 inch Kromski Presto. I didn't use the entire width. It turned out terrific. It's only about 8 inches wide. I thought it was the perfect width for wrapping around the neck.

There are different brands and different shops where you can buy such Rigid Heddle looms. It's worth doing a little bit of research depending on where you are in the world. Mine is a 32" (80cm) rigid heddle loom from Ashford.
