        Jane, I am weaving your boucle towels using the boucle towel kit.  I love the colors but I found the boucle difficult to use in the warp.  Some of the warp threads broke as I was beaming on to the back beam.  It may have been a problem with my tension.  I am going to undo the warp from the back beam and rebeam it. Hopefully that will help.  I used your technique to weave in the broken warp threads which was very helpful.  Thanks,Diane

          They look great, Diane.  Another thing that might have been happening was that the boucle might have been catching in the raddle, it’s something I always watch out for.

            Hi Sandra,

            Yes I forgot to mention that in fact the boucle did get caught in the raddle.  A couple of the warp threads wrapped around the nails even though I had used rubber bands across the tops to keep them slipping.
