- I developed this super simple knotting technique while pottering around in my studio. It's by far my favourite when used throughout a whole wall hanging.

You are amazing. I have watched a lot of videos and you are so entertaining. I love your personality hold me captive and make it interesting. Keep doing this videos. Thanks so much.
Awww what a lovey comment...thank you! I am not sure what the future holds for this channel but finger's crossed I can get back to sharing some more creative inspiration at some stage.
Okay! Your videos are pure gold. THANK YOU for imparting your knowledge.
Thank you! very sweet x
Thank you so much for your selflessness in sharing your techniques ❤️
Too sweet, thank you x
You are great. I really enjoy your teachings. I wish I could show you some of my work. I think you would like it.
I'm new to weaving and I'm soaking in all the tutorial videos. Yours are great! Very informative, fun, and easy to follow. I'm a crocheter, then I started macrame a couple of months ago, which led to weaving. Now I've made a blending board and I want to spin yarn next. Aaahh I need more hours in the day lol!! Too much fiber art!😁
Jenn J thank you for your feedback Jenn! .... I’m doing some freeform crochet elements at the moment that I will incorporate into a woven wall hanging. I have started to try my hand at spinning .... so far it’s a disaster 😂!
Awesome. Love your creativity
Thankx Betty! It certainly helps keep me sane xx
@@skycartercolour5736 I am 58 and I just took up weaving for the first time since high school. I lost my twin sister and my mom in 2020 and I know what you mean about help keeping you soon. Keep inspiring
@@bettymyers9937 So sorry to hear about those losses. Weaving is a great healer and has helped me process grief. Sending hugs xx
Absolutely love this. You’re amazing
Thank you for uploading and sharing ❤
My absolute pleasure xxx
This looks so fun, thank you so much for the video on the technique!!!
It totally is a LOT of fun 🤩
Thank you so much! Just got a loom and I cannot wait to try this technique!!
Oh wonderful! Please share your results.... I love to see what people create. 💛
Hi Thanks for this video. I'm new to weaving and knotting. I realise this seems a simple question, but I can't seem to get the hang of how you did the knot. Probably basic, but I need to see how to do a knot slowly - appreciate your skill in doing it quickly. even a verbal description would be helpful. Thanks.
Love this technique and the simplicity of it thank you for sharing, oh and I love your quirkiness you’re my kinda tribe lol 😂
Am new to weaving. I had no idea this technique was literally knotted material (from looking at completed hangings)! Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to try.
Sandra Marks It’s a wonderful craft and art form. Some weavers use macrame style knitting techniques in their weaving too so investigate that option too. Personally I just love the basic knot! Happy weaving 😊
@@skycartercolour5736 I actually started my foray into crafting with macrame two years ago. And then I saw weaving incorporated into it which brought me to weaving on a loom. I have become my "crafty" mother. I'm sure she is having a good laugh (as I was always against anything that couldn't be completed in a day).😄
Sandra Marks We eventually succumb to the allure of craft 😂
Love your tutorial! I have such a hard time weaving bc in my adhd brain it’s too chaotic and overwhelming, but also cathartic at the same time 😂. Thanks for posting!
Thank you for the video. I finished my first weave this week and used your technique and loved it!
Meredith Falk Welcome to your new addiction! Thank you for watching 😊

I loved this so much, thank you (a new huge fan) I've been weaving since march 2018 and love it so much, texture and a "pattern/design" has always been hard for me and I think everything I'm learning from you will help so much. XO

Thank you for the tip!
Happy to help!
Thanks so much for sharing
Thank you for watching .... Keep on making that weaving magic :)
Thank you for sharing I really like this. Is it possible to make a rug and would it be washable. Thank you.
Ann Newton Oooo! Good question. If you use this technique to make a rug you would most likely need to add a rubber backing (you can get a paint on rubber I think?). I don’t feel it would be washable .... I would experiment with a door mat before embarking on a large project. Also would you make ‘granny squares’ and sew together or source a large loom? Lots of elements to consider. 😊
Hello Sky, Thank you for your amazing video, very detailed and informative. Is there any way to use this technique on garments though? X
srishti drolia .... So glad you enjoyed the video. Weaving cloth for garments as opposed to wall hangings can be quite different and usually requires other types of looms. I’m sure it could be incorporated.... but it would need a bit of experimentation.
Hi! I love this, it's so much fun. I'm just wondering if you need to intersperse your knots with rows of regular tabby weave, in order for your final work to maintain its structural integrity when you take it off the loom? I've tried to do things very free-form, but then when I take it off the loom, it wilts and sort of falls in on itself 😩. Either way, thanks for sharing your experience xo
Hi Meghan, Great question! In most cases I don't BUT I do make sure that as I complete each row that I am going around every warp thread (or every second) in some way. Then when I am on the next row I take note of the alternate warp thread that I need to wrap my knotted yarn around compared to the row below, making sure I alternate (I hope that makes sense). I also push my rows down quite firmly as I go and this adds to the structural integrity. On occasion I will use plain weave in-between the knotted rows if I feel the knotted rows are not able to be compacted OR if I feel I have not woven the knotted rope around enough of the warp threads. Good luck xx
@@skycartercolour5736 Okay, makes sense! Thanks for responding 😊
Did you make that loom?
I just made a loom yesterday out of wood and nails.
Hi Miriam, Sorry for this crazy late reply!
I designed this loom and have several sizes that I sell. I started weaving on cardboard! Are you still weaving? Stay creative xx
@@skycartercolour5736 I am still working on my first project. It is more time consuming than I anticipated lol. Thanks.
Only the last 10% of your video content counts...once again I find myself fast-forwarding to get to the "meat". It's a very self-indulgent way of presenting, very off-putting I'm afraid.
C Francis Sorry you feel this way! Hope you have a lovely journey finding the right tutorials for you. Happy weaving.
Where are your tutorials at, Francis?!
Sky Carter Colour Just for the record, I found your entire tutorial extremely helpful. I am brand new to weaving, and I hugely appreciate every single word you shared, from beginning to end. I’ve seen this particular look lately and have fallen in love with it, but have not been able to figure out how to create it myself. I’ve searched high and low, and eventually found myself here. Thank you SO much!! xx🖤
Good grief, what an extraordinarily rude and utterly classless comment. You have a successful professional posting a short (and--if you read the majority of the comments--VERY helpful) video to aid others who are just learning and you say that....??? WTF?
