Hi,
I'm returning to weaving after several years and am very excited to discover Weavolution. I think my weaving instructor may have retired, as I am having difficulty locating him. Can anyone help with the following questions?
1. In warping front to back, is there a reason not to tie warp threads to the back apron bar at the time you thread the heddles? You are already handling the threads, checking the threading. Seems like it would save time.
2. When warping stripes, do you tie the ends of the yarns together when you change colors, or tie each color directly onto the warping board?
3. Can you warp back to front without a raddle?
4. Any ideas on how to clean rusty metal apron bars?
Sorry for all the questions! I'm just so excited to be getting back into weaving!
Kind regards,
kbp
