Thank you so much for that response Jane. I have been spent weeks trying to understand raddle crosses and for the life of me, and lack of weaving experience, I cannot understand its purpose. I am sure it has a purpose but not to me, yet. I am so glad that I found your on line guild. It is so helpful to me.
Hi Jane,
I realize episode 5 is all about basic warp faced weaving structure, which has helped me to learn about the basics. I am looking forward to learning about using blocks and blending yarns to create various hues in rep weave. When I look at patterns for rep weave I am a bit overwhelmed, to say the least, with winding the warp as well as dressing the loom when I see various rep weave patterns that call for winding two warp chains, including both a threading cross and a raddle cross in each warp and laying one warp on top of the other warp in the raddle. I am having difficulty imagining how to wind the warp, beam the warp and thread the heddles with what seems like four crosses in each chain.
