Notes

I am experimenting with a weft faced. plain weave structure.  My warp is two strands of 8/4 carpet warp set at 4 epi.  The weft is 3 strand wool about 1200 yards per pound.  The cloth is 44 1/2 inches wide in the loom.  I really like how it is coming out, but at 48 ppi it is weaving up slowly. 

4 epi vs. 48 ppi is the most unbalanced weave I have ever done!  Other than the slow progress, my biggest headache is that I get less than two inches of cloth per bobbin.

July 30: Weaving is complete!  I will finish it up after I return from vacation on Aug 9.
