How do you put warp on a carpet loom?
To begin using a simple loom, tie the yarn to the bottom rung, and wrap around the frame, with approximately a half-inch space between each wrap. Wrap from front to back on the top frame and from back to front on the bottom frame. Wrap the yarn between the notches on the shuttle, leaving enough room for the shuttle to pass through the shed. Twine the yarn on the shuttle over and under the thread on the frame. Using a wide-tooth comb, push the yard down on each pass. Continue on in this fashion. Finish off by cutting the yarn at the top and bottom of the frame. Tie the yarn into fringe for a clean, finished look, and to secure the thread.

Wrap spinning works on the principle of wrapping. The feed stock, generally drawn silver drafted in a five- roller drafting system.

The wrap spun yarn therefore consists of a twistless core(parallel fibres) wrapped helically by a continuous filament. These yarns are also known as cover-spun yarns and the method of spinning is also known as hollow-spindle spinning.

How do you arm knit?
Michaels.com and the blogger pinkwhen.com have videos that helped me learn how to arm knit. As a tip, your "working yarn" (the yarn pulled from the yarn bundle) is the yarn thread that you wrap around your thumb and the tail of your yarn is the yarn thread that goes over your wrist (this will make sense if you watch the videos). You will need at least 2 separate balls of thick yarn (I used a 6oz weight) but I actually wondering myself if 5oz is chunky enough. This is due to the loose nature of the knit because your arms and hands are replacing what would normally be the needle(s) in traditional knitting.
