Hello all - I want to wind a warp using two colours of yarn, blue and white, where the threading pattern is in the sequence BWBWBBWBWB to be repeated 64 times. Can anyone tell me how to do this please? If I wind on a white and a blue strand together, I don’t know how to get around the fact that there is a double blue in the middle of the sequence and also when repeating it each time, since the first and last threads are blue. I am sure there must be a simple solution and am confident that one of you knows what it is!! I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks.
I would wind a white warp and then a blue warp and combine them when warping.
Thanks for replying so quickly Cheryl. I am not too familiar with how that works. Do you just place the separate warps on top of each other on the warping rod….but then the cross would get in the way….hmm…or do you just slide them onto the warping road side by side and put them more or less in the required order for threading as you spread them over the raddle? I seem to remember something on this topic being mentioned on the Forum before…does it appear on one of the Season’s video episodes maybe?
Hey Katherine, Jane showed us how to do this technique in Season 7 Episode 1....works great and I've warped this way many times now.
OK that’s great. Thanks very much for pointing me in the right direction. I’ll take a look at that Episode now.
