While I had the tension loosened to advance the warp, the shuttle fell off the loom. Since it was still attatched to the project by the thread, it jerked one side of the loosened warp a bit. Now the tension is too loose on the left side. Is there a way to fix this without having to cut off what I've already woven?

I didn't get as much done this weekend as I would have liked, but I'm about a third of the way through towel #2.  I'm treadling it differently (I'll put a picture on tonight) and I think I might like this one a little better. This is all unmercerized cotton, and the next one I want to do in a straight twill with the weft in stripes of white mercerized and purple unmercerized cotton- just to see how it looks.

You've woven some really great pattern variations on this warp. Experimenting with colour and pattern as the weaving grows is always such good fun!

Notes

I was mostly pleased with how these turned out. Two went to my boss, and two became a wedding gift. I wanted to get them out before I left on vacation, and so I never got around to taking pictures of the hemmed and fully finished towels.  Darn it!
