I just started the first of three scarves in the kit and noticed my selvedges are curling in toward the woven clothe. My sett is correct. I tried using a temple to prevent too much drawn in but the 12.5 inch scarf width in the reed is making it difficult to fit a temple because 12.5 is too small for the 12 inch size temple and too wide for the up to 12 inch temple. I am also noticing that the clothe is drawing in where the twill turns. I had the same issue when I wove turned twill towels. Has anyone else had curling selvedges and issues when weaving turned twill?
Hi Tricia,
You could press them after washing and see if that helps to uncurl them. The other option would be next time to use a floating selvedge and that should help as well.
Thank you Ginette for your response.
