Work In Progress

straight threading : 1,2,3,4

sley Reed : 1 end per dent (2 in selvedge) 

Length of warp for 5-6,20’’ – 24’’

Samples – 120’’ 

Plus tie on and wastage = 36’’ approx

Make warp 160’’ long = 12ft / 160.0 = 13.3 

36/160.00 = 4.4 = 4 1/2 yards

absorbing the dye

  

  width required = approx 18’’ 

  .

 . .   no of warp ends = 18 X 10 = 180 

  plus 4 dble each selvedge = 188
