When you make an early hand woven rugs, it is easier if the weight yarn is thicker than the warp, so that it covers the warp completely. It may be applied in advance or, if of fine gauge, there may be more than one thickness wound on a shuttle.
To start weaving a hand-woven rug, you first need to fasten the weft thread to the warp. Here's how to do it: The four streams are used as one to make the instructions more understandable. If you are using a thick weft, untangle the ends. If you use more than one thread, separate them. Build your first barn out of barn sticks. Put the weft in the shed and hang the end to the edge. Divide this and go through the half twice around the edge and back along the same shed for about a half inches. In this way, the edges are reinforced, there are only small space where there is additional wefts, and they will not be visible when the next weft selection is in place. Finishing and starting work the same way. Joining the wefts To join the wafts, four wefts are being used as one, operating from right to left. The old weft is split in half, and the ends are allowed to hang out of the warp, which is about two inches away. The new weight is again split in half, so that the shorter end overlaps with the longer end of the old one, and the longer end overlaps the smaller end. This way, the structure is not weakened and in two areas where there is excess load, it will not be visible when the weaving continues. The ends of the weft that is wound about 1.5 inches in front of the nearest warp and then trimmed. Large eyes and a blunt-tipped needle should be used to avoid damaging the warp thread. It is easier to trim the ends when working while the weave is still on the loom. Ensure that the width of the hand-woven rug remains constant during weaving and that the headings at both ends are machined to the same depth. After weaving the hand-woven rugs to the required length, cut the loom and bend it enough to create a fringe. When making woven rugs, multiple weaves require a second warp roll, which is very easy to improvise on a piece of wood that is about two inches square and a foot longer than the loom, even for foot power looms. The warp thread is wound over the warp thread tied to a square bar and then wound up as usual. Instant beams are securely tied to the back of the loom. If the lashings become loose when winding during weaving, the beam will rotate and bend sufficiently before retying. The second warp thread is slightly over-tightened with a cloth roller, and finally the warp beam of the loom removes some excess tension from the second warp thread. The warp yarns used to make woven rugs are usually very sturdy and not easily broken, but they can sometimes wear out and loosen bundles or knots in the warp yarns. To fix the broken end of the warp, cut the warp length and about 12 inches long enough to reach over the leash or barn bar from the weave. Repair of a broken warp thread; tie the thread around a pin in the weave and leave the other end from the original thread on the top of the loom, over the shed lifting device. Place one end of the woven rug thread into the broken thread on the back of the loom and weave the other end around a large pin, which has slipped into the weave. Tie the temporary thread tightly with a double bow over the sticks of the shed, so that the intensity of the new thread matches that of the rest of the warp thread.
