i've just warped up my Beka rigid heddle loom after 20+years to weave a mohair shawl. (I've been weaving on a pocket loom and locker hooking rugs.) I followed the directions in the pattern: 6 epi, 120 warp ends. I used my 12 dent heddle, threading every other slot and hole. Now that I've tied the warp on, I'm concerned that the holes are on the small side. I'm wondering how to deal with this: do I continue, and hope for the best? Or rethread, using a 5epi heddle, and double up on some of the warp threads?
i would welcome any insights.
cheers,
marina
