I am new to weaving, and have a Leclerc counterbalance loom. Are
there any special tips or rules to follow when reading drafts? I think
most are designed for jack looms that have a rising shed. If the draft
has harness 1 going up, does that mean I need to move 2, 3 and 4 down on
my counterbalance loom? Or will the pattern just develop on the
underside of the weave as I go? For my first sampler, I depressed 2, 3
and 4 when it said 1 should be up, and it was tricky to remember and
work. Maybe there is an alternate tie up method?
BTW, weaving is awesome!!
