A friend would like me to make her a blanket for her new grand-daughter. I sent her pictures of several ideas that I created using Weave software and together we settled on that shown below.

Together, we went to the Ashford shop and bought the yarn required. We were able to get all of the colours that we wanted, but some of the yarn is mercerised and some unmercerised.

Weave structure 8-shaft turned twill
Warp 5/2 cotton (Dazzling blue, Scuba blue & Cedar green; mainly mercerised – 1/3 of Dazzling blue and
Cedar green are unmercerised)
Weft 5/2 cotton (Scuba blue, Dazzling blue, Honeysuckle; all mercerised)
Warp length 4.5m
Total no. ends 648 (no floating selvedge)
EPI 15
PPI 15
Reed 10dpi
Sley 1,2/dent
Width in reed 108cm

Warp winding sequence, Threading (repeat 6 times), Tie-up and Treadling (TAW threading, swap Dazzling blue and Scuba blue and use Honeysuckle instead of Cedar green) are shown below.
