. . behind doing a plaid is (1) I've never done a plaid, and (2) to get the effect that I want it MUST be a true balanced weave. So getting the sett right and weaving it so that there are the same number of shots per inch in the warp per inch as there are threads per inch in the weft will be the challange.
It's a whole new chalenge i guess. At least to me it is, but i'll stick to stripes and hand dyeing for now. Hopefully one of my next projects will be plaid :) Good luck whith whatever you pick for yourself!
