I'm using up the rest of my Shadow weave warp after doing the samples and decided to do doubles on Wall of Troy. I'm fine with the first turning point being 4 - 2 - 4 , but when I get to the second turning point do I use 1 -3-1 and end up with a smooth surface but 3-1-3-1-3 in the pattern, or do I use 2 as the turning treadle but get a slight ridge? Both seem to work, but which are the proper turning points for Wall of Troy when doing doubles?

The proper second turning point for Wall of Troy, double units, in the Atwater system, would be 3-1-3. Introducing a treadle 2 would be jumping across the blocks, so out of sequence (thus the ridge). Doubles Wall of Troy makes such a neat looking effect in shadow weave!
