Dear Leah
no big deal .Just keep your warp rolling ..once you are set for putting up the warp keep one extra bobbin ready with a warp thread rolled on to the length of the warp .. when you spread your warp and find the broken end just go ahead and add the thread from this bobbin to tie at the begining of your weaving rods this thread will compensate the broken end .. than tie the bobbin to the back of the loom where you have your warp beam keep the tension according to your warp ... weave normally ..till you see the other broken warp end on the floor catch that end and tie it with the bobbin thread with a weavers knot if you do not know how to do weavers knot use your regular method of knoting making sure the thread can stand the beating .. cut the ends from a little far off ( not to close ) and resume your weaving weave about one feet than remove the bobbin . You are all good to go . feel free to ask anywhere you need help
Good luck
abs.
