Ending and Starting Weft

There are several ways to end and start a new weft yarn. Depending on the size of your threads and your weave structure. For this twill structure, I bring the ending thread into the open shed an inch or two....


then I bring the new thread into the same shed opening and pull it in until the end is flush with the selvage. With this twill structure, the overlapping of the threads doesn't show.



The most important thing when changing to a new weft is NO KNOTS.....
