This threading was from a color gamp that I did over the summer, but I looked through all of my books to get the threading and I don't remember which book this one came from.   I'll keep looking and update this posting when I find it.

Notes: 

Color changes based on Fibanacci secquence:1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55. for a total repleat of 143.Threading repeat is 16, and 16 * 9 = 144.   This requires the last element of the Fimanacci sequence to be 56 instead of 55 - a small "cheat."Width is therefore multiples of 144, or 144, 288. 432, 576, 720, etc.

You are welcomed!

Note that treddles 17 and 18 are just a tabby tie up.   I use that at the beginning and end of the weaving to get something I can turn under or hem when sewing.
