Mirror Warp Throw |
To weave a standard wool throw, I use the following measurements:
|
Warp Yarn: 2 ply fine wool (Briggs & Little)
Sett: 8 epi
Width in Reed: 45"
No. Ends: 8 x 45 = 360 Ends
Warp length: 3 yards
|
| To convert this to a Mirror Warp:
|
Sett: 8 epi
Width in Reed: 45"
No. Ends: 360/2 = 180 Ends
Warp Length: 3 x 2 = 6 yards
|
| Wind all of the warp on the warping board or mill.
Tie the crosses loosely but securely. Also add additional ties to the warp chains at one yard intervals. Remember to put crosses at both ends of the warp. (Please see the previous page for a diagram of mirror warps.
|
| You will be overdyeing the whole warp, so make sure that the ties are secure but loose.
