linen warp chains
Tonight I made good progress on the linen weaving project. The warp ends have all been measured and are hanging in chains from the hanging beater of my loom (because I have a cat).
There are a total of 386 warp ends at 7 yards long. The ends will be sleyed in a 10 dent per inch reed.
This weekend, I’m hoping to get the sleying, threading and winding on of the warp completed so I can start weaving. I’m somewhat nervous. Linen is very “springy”. Winding the warp ought to be an adventure.
