  1. enjoyed the class at IWC, learned to keep edges more even,use color, and the lines of two warps seem to show how tight you pull the weft. the bars seem to show how tightly down the weft is packed, have to check the weaving just after pulling the belt around the loom, as that's when loose threads seem to cause trouble. thank you!!!
