I'm enjoying season 4 so much, even though I'm only on the first chapter. I put the 10 yard warp on in colours that I had on hand (black and natural). I thought I would be pretty smart and do the exercises as tea towels to gift at Christmas time.
I'm frustrating myself trying to get a 20epi beat going. I seem to have a really irregular beat, so I think I'll go for a nice even beat and then aim for the 20epi ? Or is that just being a slacker? Who knows, maybe I'll have ANOTHER 10 yards of tea towels for myself? Ha!
10 yard warp!

Are you beating too hard or not enough to get your 20 ppi? And, are you staying in your Sweet Spot”? Read this article from the KB that might help - https://janestaffordtextiles.com/knowledge-base/in-praise-of-good-selvedges/

Thanks for the link Sandra - I'm not able to reply to it for some reason, so I'll just comment here. I'll take a peek at the article. I think the main thing is just practice. I love weaving and am aiming for a nice even weave, and then get to the correct epi's. This piece is at about 22 epi right now, and I'm happy with it.
