Part Four - Beam

Now I have all the heddles threaded I need to wind the warp onto the back beam. (I don't think there are any errors, but will check that once I get beamed on and can weave plain weave.)

Remember my blocks are:
1-3-2-3
1-4-2-4
4-2-3-2
4-1-3-1
And just like traditional summer and winter, my tabbies are 1-2 vs. all the pattern treadles. (3-4 in this case.)

My pattern treadles will be:
1-4
2-4
1-3
2-3
I am going to use the tie down order of 2-1-1-2 and tabby order of a-b-a-b.

Working on weaving a baby blanket with four blocks on four shafts of summer and winter. For those of you in the "know" - summer and winter is called "Single Two-Tie!!
