Can I use different types of yarn?

Troubleshooting
Yarn is getting tangled.
Ensure the yarn is feeding smoothly from the skein. Gently untangle any knots and make sure the shuttle is passing through the warp threads without snagging.
Weave is uneven or loose.
Use the weaving comb to push the weft threads firmly and evenly against the previous row. Check the warp tension to ensure it's consistent using the metal thread spacers.
