simple stripes

simple stripes tryout: i made a warp with some leftover knitting coton.not ideal but thats what i had laying around.first i warped 2 light ,2 dark treads,  in the middle i found a way to warp 1red,1yellow by fixing the tread on each end (don't cut, put a weight on it or so)then i made the stringheddles as laverne explained on flickr.first i had to do it over but second time it worked(forgot the second clockwiseturned loop).then i sew the warp to the sticks as explained in backstrapweaving(four selvedges,B.Taber and M.Anderson). i don't know if i am going to do four selvedges but  this way the sticks don't fall out easily.I started weaving one thick ,one thin weft because i remembered that from bandweavinglessons long ago.the thick weft makes one colour come-out more .by weaving two of the same after another  you can change the colour that you want to come out most.
