This was a REALLY busy week at my paycheck job. Instead of working 2 or 3 days I had to work 5. Long ones. Yesterday was our largest annual fund raiser, and it requires lots of effort. Thankfully, it’s over now.<\/p>\n

As a result of all that time away from home, I had little time to deal with my warp problem.<\/a> I had suggestions from 3 different weavers and gave a great deal of thought to which I’d try. I ended up deciding that I’d re-insert the lease sticks, sley the reed, apply tension, and unwind the warp. Then I’d fix the bad section and rebeam. <\/p>\n

I didn’t get far at all before I was in a very bad place. Here’s the left side of the warp.<\/p>\n

\"left<\/a><\/p>\n

I did expect difficult there, but not this bad. And somehow the right side of the loom had issues now, too.<\/p>\n

\"right<\/a><\/p>\n

Since I’d probably only unwound about 1 yard of the 14, I knew I could never succeed with this effort. Once again, I walked away and tried to think. I decided I had to cut off the problem threads, rebeam to the back, and go from there.<\/p>\n

It looks like a mouth with a missing front tooth. <\/p>\n

So I took careful count of what I had on the loom and what was missing, and wound a new bout to fill in that gap. 200 threads total.<\/p>\n

\"rewound<\/a><\/p>\n

Now “all” that’s left is to figure out how to wind these replacement threads on something to maintain tension. Easier said than done. Time to sit and ponder a bit again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
