Hi Weavers!
Achieving even warp tension on your loom can feel like one of the biggest challenges in weaving – especially when working on a rigid heddle loom. Uneven warp tension can lead to messy looking selvedges, inconsistent beat, floats or skips and frustration during weaving.
While careful warping technique improves with practice, even experienced weavers can run into warp tension problems.
In this recently updated article, I’ll show you how to improve warp tension using a simple technique I call targeted wedging. This practical method can help you correct uneven tension on the loom without re-warping your entire project.
