S2-Episode 1 - Colour & Design
Does 'An Exploration of 'Colour and Design Principles' consist only of 3 pages? I printed out the part about architecture, but I assume, there must be pages covering Graphic and Colour as well. I can' find them. If they exist - in which lesson do I have to search for the PDFs?
You can find the full set of 4 articles on Colour and Design on the JST Knowledge Base on the original site - https://janestaffordtextiles.com/article-categories/colour-and-design/
Thank you😀
Hello! Episode 2.1.4 mentions re-sleying without rebeaming but the actual process wasn't shown or described. Where can I go to see this? Thank you!
It’s actually quite simple, Jennifer 😉 You remove your warp from your reed until it is hanging in front of your shafts, just like it was before sleying the first time. Determine your width in reed with your new sett and figure out where to start sleying so that your warp will still be centred when you start to weave. Hope this helps.
I have warped my loom with 8/2 tencel sett at 20 epi (I usually set it at 24) for a crackle pattern. I am attempting to beat it so that I get 20 ppi in the plain weave sections. The edge threads are breaking. I'm guessing this is because I'm beating too hard. Should the sett be less or do I settle for about 16 epi? Any advice?
Hopefully, others will pipe in. I haven't woven with Tencel for years.
