I think I've been overthinking this. My big roadblock was trying to figure out my epi for each section and warp color order. Now that I've done that I can establish the number of ends and colors for each crammed and open sections. Thank you! More to come.
S3-Episode 2 - Cramming & Denting
Sandra, I don';t know if you saw my last posting prior to the previous one. Could you please look at it and give me your response? It has attached images.
thanks, Diane
Every time you change the sett, it affects your width in reed as well as your finished width after washing. The recommended sett for 16/2 linen in the Master Sett Chart is 15 epi/ppi and the only way you are going to get the width you need for your curtains is to sample - which you are doing. Your question was whether the width of your cloth changed every time you changed your sett and the answer is yes.
Thanks Sandra. I’m relenting my reed and opening up my sett more in the very open areas. I think this will give me what I’m looking for. I thought I had started with a wide enough width but hadn’t factored in the amount of change that would occur with the denting.
