Weaving hack works! / by Helen Hajnoczky

So as I’ve mentioned warping a loom is back destroying, picky, unpleasant work (and I mean work) that I really really don’t like doing, so I tried making a warp hack… using colour-coded strings as reusable warp starters. These run through the heddles and beater so I can tie the warp to the starter threads and then pull it through. These worked when I warped the loom last time, and I’m delighted to report they worked when I took the cloth off the loom too! Hooray! This will help make weaving a feasible part of my creative life.
