END NEARING FOR HANDSPUN WARP

Posted by Peg in South Carolina

Knots over back beam The knots have come up over the back beam.  But they have not gone through the lease sticks.

Yes, I kept the lease sticks in while weaving. No, there were no broken warps.  But at this point I am going to remove those sticks.  This way I don’t have to worry about the knots catching on them when I move the warp forward.

I have woven close to two yards.  If I continue to weave until the knots come up to the heddles but not through them, I will have about 20 more inches woven. 

We are leaving for Charlotte for a long weekend.  It will be nice to have 20 inches of weaving on this warp to return to.
