Hello, weavers. I'm putting my third-ever warp on my 4H Artisat. It's a 5-yard warp of 8/2 cotton, and I did a lousy job keeping even tension when I used the warping board, evidently. Now I have some tangles, some disordered threads, and one newly busted warp thread. (I am learning a ton already... next time lease sticks will stay in!) But anyway.. Can anyone tell me how to go about fixing a thread broken while beaming?

 

Thanks!

I'd just tie a knot in it, then repair it while you are weaving.

cheers,

Thanks so much.  This just happened and now I can "fix" it.
