In this country we tend to put on shorter warps, and many of us weave a wide variety of fabrics from thick and heavy woolens to delicate and fine linens. One warp may be a blanket and the next one a set of placemats. We often hesitate to commit to ten, 20 or 30 yard warps. We can, however, borrow the idea of weaving several things on one warp from the Swedes, adding to it our American tendency toward variety and change. While warping doesn't have to be an ordeal and really it shouldn't be, putting a warp on the loom for several projects does make a lot of sense for the time it saves. You need to measure, sley, thread and beam only once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the following pages we've explored some of the options for getting the most out of a warp. One thing is for sure; you will need to plan ahead. Instead of planning one project, youH need to plan five, six or even as many as ten projects before you ever begin to make your warp. Just think of putting on a warp for all the birthday presents you want to give for a whole year, and weaving it off without the interruption of rewarping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArticles included in \u003cem\u003eHandwoven, \u003c\/em\u003eMarch\/April 1985:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake it with Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor the Floor: An International Exhibit of Contemporary Artists' Rugs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking Machine Knit Ribbing for Woven Goods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNavajo Inspired Rugs for Floor or Beast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnd More!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownload your copy of \u003cem\u003eHandwoven \u003c\/em\u003eMarch\/April 1985 today and start your own weaving adventure!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Long Thread Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67749351424320,"sku":"vyp1791803123706","price":6.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/0787\/1296\/files\/handwoven-marchapril-1985-digital-edition_1.jpg?v=1791803128","url":"https:\/\/www.morqavia.com\/products\/handwoven-marchapril-1985-digital-edition","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
