Hmmm...

After releasing the weights and rolling up some of that 2nd yard up onto the beam I am now 99% certain that I'm going to get a third yard out of this warp. Not, too much past that, but then again I could be wrong - I could maybe get another 1/3 to 1/2 a yard - we'll see. I am curious to see what will happen - as I weave closer to the weights I can feel the tension change. There is a sweet spot where the weaving is smooth and the tension wonderful, but when I get too close to the weights I can feel things start to go kind of wonky and I know it's time to roll up again...I'm just curious to see what happens when I keep going as far as I can...
