For structural analysis, I have a short warp of 8 cards threaded identically with 4 different colors of cheap yarn. I can set them up in any desired fashion (S or Z, etc) and weave with them using cheap bamboo skewers as weft.
Yes, I can see that setting up the warp with 4 different colors would be a good idea. Thanks for your advice -- I did check out the page you recommended on your website and that helped get things straight in my mind. Then I took "Tablet Weaving Magic" on the plane with me and read it again, and somewhere up there it all fell into place.
There is *so much* to learn about tablet weaving -- isn't that wonderful?
Take care, Linda
