Thank you for recording this video! I love seeing the details of how everyday goods are made in the absence of computers and electricity. I think it's really important for people to understand how that occurs.
Hey, Kathy! We loved your demonstration of a loom! We went to the Science Museum in London and saw both a Jacquard loom and an Yamaha automated loom but we didn't really have a full understanding of what was going on. Your video helped us understand precisely what was going on in both! Thanks for the lovely video!
As an automation enthusiast, I feel thrilled by this. I know punch cards actually has its root in industrial looms. But now I feel it even more. Maybe our computers are just modern looms - making the complex tapestry of pictures and sounds 60 or 100 times each second on the monitor.
Thanks for the comment. I will be making a video on my AVL later which has a computer interface. The shafts are lifted according to the pattern on the computer.
after seeing a picture of a loom and realizing i didnt actually know how they worked, i searched it up and ended here. i wasn't expecting to be amazed at how cool it actually is. when she started sending the boat back and forth, i thought "wow this is sick!" -- thank you for a such an informative video!
Thank you so very much for your concise and easy to follow explanation! I'm going to be starting with a small loom and see how I take to weaving. Your work is beautiful by the way!
Wonderful, thank you for this video. I'm reading a book on the textile industry from about 42,000 years ago, and it's difficult to imagine the intricacies of weaving when there are no visuals.
Great video! Thank you. I work for a small fabrication shop where we make metal mesh fabric. We have big beastly looms to weave the metal strands from 1/32" up to 3/8" thich diameter into many different mesh products. I mostly weld but started training on the looms recently. This definitely helped me understand the mechanics more.
Thank you so much for your video, Kathy! I hope all's well for you and your family in Oklahoma! You guys have been hit pretty hard over there! Been interested in weaving since reading the story of East. The main character was skilled at weaving and I'd only seen looms twice in life with no idea how they worked! Homever made these looms gotta be a genius! ^^
Hi Shirley, thank you. I am going to make some new demos later this year so I hope you can pop back in later. If you would like to visit my Etsy shop, it is rnrwoventreasures.Etsy.com
I bought a loom on Animal Crossing and then started thinking about how I didn't know how in the world a loom worked. Thanks for the interesting video, very helpful :)
What an amazingly clever machine. Thank you for this helpful video, you seem like such a sweet lady! I was just trying to do some research for a story, and now I want to get a loom and start weaving my own towels, haha.
Jay Ryan Kamins you are welcome! I have several videos on weaving and weave structures. Take a look at my Facebook group if you like. The address is facebook.com/groups/191646257878325/.
That’s a nice and understandable video. If I am ever in Bixby y I am going to come to your store and buy something because I appreciate the work put into these products a lot more. Thank you for explaining this process.
Thank you for the compliment. Yes it is work and I love to design new things. My store is on Etsy. If you would like you can I sit anytime. Rnrwoventreasures.Etsy.com
Thank you for this! I read a book in high school called East, a decent portion of which pertains to loomwork. I recently purchased the book for myself and figured I should finally learn how a loom actually works, because I felt relatively confused during those portions. You laid it out very clearly in your video, and I now feel equipped to understand what the author is talking about when she writes about loomwork.
Thank you. I enjoyed doing it. If you would like to see some examples of table runners or pillows woven on a loom, check out my series on How She Made That.
Thank you, beautiful crafting. I for one like to understand the technique and skill and time that goes into handmade objects. Very nice that you are making it unlike any commercial manufacturer would make it.
jack hodges Thank you. Weaving patterns are called drafts and I have a video on how to read a draft. It is one of my latest ones so it may be at the bottom of the list. It covers the basics and was made by capturing screen shots of a simple app. Another great resource for weaving drafts is at www.handweaving.net. They have hundreds of drafts and you can browse the examples free. To download drafts you can pay a minor monthly fee.
I am sorry I did not see your question earlier. I have woven with some silk both commercially spun and home spun...not extensively but I did not encounter any differences. The homespun was used as a weft (the one that you out in the boat and throw across) not as a warp because it could not take the tension necessary for the warp. I have used bamboo which is a great substitute and less expensive quite a bit. It has the luster and shine of silk but not the price tag.
Thanks for the informative video! My sister has Down syndrome and she learned how to weave on looms like this at an art program that she goes to. She hasn't been able to go to the program since March because of Covid, so we're thinking of getting her a little table loom for Christmas so that she can do a little bit of weaving. Of course, that made me curious as to how looms work. Your video explained it really well--looms are such a brilliant piece of human ingenuity. I can't believe how well everything works together! So cool!
I am sorry I did not see this before. Did you buy the loom for her. There are some places to get good buys for second hand table looms. Looms are made to last and two of mine are second hand from the 1980s.
Hello from Knoxville Tennessee!! I just found your videos on youtube and wanted to say hello. I have a 47 inch rigid Gilmore that was made in 1963 and am getting a 36 inch Gilmore on the 27th. Completely excited! I could tell yours was a Gilmore when I started watching this and was super happy. My 47 inch is a 4 shaft...10 treddle loom. I'm very new to weaving (am practicing on my 32 inch Ashford rigid) and wondered if you'd happen to know why a person would have ordered 10 treddles with only 4 shafts? The owner of Gilmore was able to pin point my exact loom in his records because of the odd layout. It has 2 back beams too. Just curious. Happy to meet you! I'm Nola McNeely.
Hi My husband is from middle Tennessee. Yes it is a Gilmore. Each treadle is tired up to any combination of shafts not just a single one. The sequence is on the draft (pattern). You might need to take a look at my video on how to read a draft. Don't hesitate to ask any questions you have. I would be happy to help you figure it out.
What if they calulated a computer with a multi colored string and it could replicate what you have here but I bet nothing can beat the hand loom when it comes to quality
I have a computer interface now on my AVL loom. It controls the treadles and lift the required shafts. Take a look at this new video. th-cam.com/video/8PFFiS46I98/w-d-xo.html
Thousands of years of generational teaching and learning of skills, and so many of them are gone within a couple generations now, lost forever. Makes me sad.
Ñ00B hi glad you liked the video. I first cut the thread from the back beam and then unroll the woven material from the front beam cutting it off at the beginning. You end up with a sheet of woven material.
Hi Mini. Check out your local weaver’s guild or shop for a demonstration. Some history re-enactment villages also have them. Sorry I could not help you further.

What's the name of book ??
26 years old and I've only just discovered how fabric is made. Our whole civilization is built on it
yes
Same + graduated in mechanical engineering. Almost feel robbed for how little they've actually taught us about mechanisms and tools.

Had no idea what a loom was before this video, thanks!
this is such a good and clear explanation. thanks so much
Thank you!
Liked very much your video. Now I got an idea how a loom works. Thank you, Kathy.

Super useful video, thank you ma'am!
Thank you. I have some How She Made That videos and one on how to read a weaving draft that you might also enjoy.
Thank you so much for putting the effort! Learnt a lot!
Started smoking a blunt had a randomly wondered how a loom and here I am at 3 am.
Such a sophisticated machine. Shows how intelligent men were in the 18th century.
You might enjoy looking up a jacquard loom. It used punched cards. There is a nice article in the National Museum of Scotland's website.
Amazing, thank you so much for making this!!!

jack hodges you are welcome. I like to make these in the winter so I will be making new ones covering different weave structures.
@@RNRWovenTreasures I am intrigued by the process of pattern making on a loom, you are a true artisan

Hello, do you know what loom this is? It’s beautiful
It is an 8 daft Gilmore Jack loom. They are made in Stockton California. I think they are one of the best Jack looms!
Get well soon Kathy :)
Amazing. It is music.
Reading the book Circe by Madeline Miller brought me here! I was curious how one worked. Thank you!
Thank you Ariel
Bread and Wine by Ignazio Silone brought me here. :D

Fascinating!
I really hope she weaves "THICK AND THIRSTY" on that towel.
