Weaver Notes
There are roughly 18 picks per inch. I chose a slightly warp faced weave in order to show the warp colors a bit more than a balanced weave would.
The broken twill ground was threaded on harnesses 1-4, and the point twill stripes were on 5-8
19.5″ in the reed, 34″ long under tension
16.75″ x 27″ after hemming and machine washing in warm water, partially dried in dryer on high
I used two floating selvedges on each side, each in its own dent
