Well, this is embarrassing. I just realized, while I was staring at my draw-downs (I had already done them a few weeks ago), that I’ve been looking at canvas threading, not huck, and I needed to look at the huck threading on Page 2 to figure out the treadling.I notice that the samples switch from warp floats to weft floats, so I’ll stick to my skeleton tie-up and figure it out as I go. Thanks for your patient reply.
I have to admit, I am utterly lost as to what a huck tie-up is. Am I correct in thinking it is just the “Canvas warp floats” and “Canvas weft floats” on the handout? I have six treadles, so I have tied up two tabbies (1 & 3, 2& 4) and tied up each shaft separately. For sample #11, for example, I think I should be treadling A: 13, 123,123,13 then B: 24, 234,234,234,, etc., but that is only a four-pick sequence. Where am I going wrong? What is the fifth pick between the As and Bs? Or do I have the whole tie-up and treadling sequence wrong?
