What are Warping Helpers?

Years ago, I purchased a set of these.  Friends asked where I got these.  I tried to find the original maker - could not find her - So I decided to try making them myself.  The new ones are made using cotton webbing. I  cut the tab material, punch holes, press the snaps and grommets using a small hand press, and sew all of these myself.

What I like is not needing to hold the cross in my hand for either front to back or back to front warping.  I can easily adjust the sticks so one is above the other and at the level that works for me.  You can also adjust the height of the shafts and your seat.  I use a lower chair for threading heddles and then the bench when threading the reed.  There is one image with a view showing part of the lease sticks while I am threading the heddles back to front.

The device can be used for either front to back warping or back to front warping.  You will need to try it out on your loom to find the best location to connect. For larger looms a set with an extension section is available. These are available in the shop here and on Etsy.
