      Loved the Canvas Weave session today.  I’m getting geared up and ready to go!

      I have two questions …

      1.  On Page 5… Rising shed lace  Why is there a blank row prior to the final 11 repeats of Tabby in the weaving draft?

      2. On page 6… In both the lace and weft floats diagrams the unit block go B and then A, but in the Warp Floats diagram the unit blocks are identified as A and then B.  Why are they not also identified as B and then A?

      I’m still finding my way around, but I am having fun.  My questions may be obvious to the more experienced.

        I’m not sure that this is the right place to ask my question but… I’m attempting to do the turned twill lesson. I am using tie up#3 and I am having a lot of difficulty keeping my shuttle from falling through the warp when I throw it for the #2 treadle.
        When I look at my warp with the treadle 2 activated I am seeing what appear to be smiley faces in the red section and one gold section of the warp. I only notice this with treadle two.  Is this an indication of uneven tension on my warp threads.  Would cutting and re-tieing my warp be a solution?

        I am working on a Leclerc Colonial loom. Set up for rising shed action.
