Found the missing reeds!! and it happens to be a 10 dent so this message is now MOOT!
I am weaving turned taquette towels on my 8 shaft Woolhouse Table Loom. Threading is 1, 2, 3, 4. The draft calls for a 10 dent reed, not having a 10 dent for my 23.5” (outside measurement of current reeds used), I decided to use my 8 dent and do a 2/3 to get 20 threads per inch. However, the threads kept twisting and the design wasn’t working at all. I double checked the threading and the threads on the back beam and everything is good (no twisted threads or wrong threading). So, thinking I would just decide to get a 10 dent reed, but then I thought, what if the threads should twist again, maybe a 20 dent reed and put one thread per dent. I have never encountered a problem like this before.
Then, last night I thought oh clean up the 12 dent reed that the loom came with and see if 1, 2, 2 will work before spending more $$. Well, I have now searched the house and garage high and low and cannot for the life of me find the reed.
My question is, go with the 10 dent or the 20 dent? Thanks.
