Remember that I said I retied the supplemental warp<\/a> section 4 times at the beginning of the wrap? And that it wasn’t perfect but was moving forward ok? <\/p>\n

That big curve in the fell line makes it look like the supplemental warp has too much tension on it, doesn’t it? Actually, it’s just the opposite. It’s too loose. I can only get the fell line to be straight across if I pull that section of the warp toward<\/em> me on the front beam. I can hold it in place with my big belly while I weave, but that only exacerbates the problem. That section of the woven cloth is much more stretched out that the rest of the fabric; this wrap would not offer consistent support. I tried every trick I could think of to improve the situation, all to no good effect. Here’s my latest, and last, attempt – hanging weights on sections of threads.<\/p>\n
