At one point in this gamp, the draft calls for DDDD/LLLL and then says '"warping with 2 ends in your hand." It looks like 8 ends to me and I can't figure out how one can do it holding just 2 threads. Thank you for any help for this newbie.

Another thread here got me to thinking that maybe you could try warping two warps ala Season 7 Episode 1
Tamar, you have probably moved on by now, but just in case you haven’t, Jane refers us back to:
“Note: please review Season 1 Episode 1.3 “making a Warp with multiple ends” and Season 1 Episode 2.4 starting at 14:48 “threading multiple ends from your cross.”
Hi, I'm repeating a question from above:
At one point in this gamp, the draft calls for DDDD/LLLL and then says '"warping with 2 ends in your hand." It looks like 8 ends to me and I can't figure out how one can do it holding just 2 threads.
I've watched the videos but that specific section has me baffled. how do I do this holding 2 threads?
Thanks,
Julia
Hi Julia,
The 2 ends in your hand is 2 ends of Dark and 2 ends of Light.
On the 2.4.1 video at the beginning 4:20, Jane shows on the blackboard how you will be pulling them off the lease sticks for the 4D and 4L. For your warp start with 2 Dark and going once (these are part of the first 4 darks), cut and attached 2D and 2L. With the 4 in your hand warp until you have 44 more threads, total now should be 46 threads warped. Cut those there and then attached 2L and warp these once. I think I did the math ok that!
Thank you! I just rewatched that video and now it makes sense! I think I needed to warp the first sequence or two first, then puzzle a bit, then read your note and watch the video with the board explanation again.
The new website is gorgeous!
Thanks again,
Julia
That's great Julia! We will add a note on the PDF to make it a bit clearer on warping with the 2 threads part for this section :)
Glad you like the new website! The gals in the studio worked really hard on it, we're happy how it turned out!
