Just got my 2/40 linen warp on my loom (Jack Loom) and started weaving my sample. I already have tension issues and I am not 1/2 inch into the weaving, plus already have 3 broken threads. I am really discouraged about this. Taking a break to recover about this and try to figure out what to do. Any thoughts?

Hello Linda- I haven't had the courage to try weaving with linen myself yet, so I will be interested to read any advice you may receive! Meanwhile, all I can say is that probably every single weaver who uses this forum can sympathise with you....I have certainly felt pretty fed up at times when things seem to go wrong for no obvious reason. Hope you get some good advice soon!
