I decided to weave the large threadings gamp from Season 4, episode 5 of the Jane Stafford videos. It’s a 2/2 twill with 6 different warp threading sequences, each separated by a red band:
1) Ms & Ws
2) Unit substitution
3) Undulating twill
4) Diamonds as a frame
5) Advancing twill
6) Straight draw borders on both sides, in red, so that I can read where I am in the pattern as I weave

Warp – 5/2 cotton
Weft – 5/2 cotton
Warp length – 6m
Total number of ends – 270
EPI – 18
PPI – 18
Width in reed – 15″
Reed – 10 dent
Sleying – 1,2,2,2 per dent (17.5 epi)
Floating selvedge on each side

I wound the warp in the following sequence:
9 red
39 black
4 red
45 black
4 red
41 black
4 red
62 black
4 red
49 black
9 red

Once the warp was wound, I tied the cross with 4 threads and made a tight chain.
