Using TempoWeave and this technique, these placemats were woven.
This is the WIF for the placemats (8-treadle version, 4 shafts)
This was sett as 32 ends per inch (16 epi per layer). We used an 8-dent reed with 4 threads in each dent. We found this very easy to thread and sley, especially since each group of four threads uses one heddle on each shaft (1, 2, 3 or 4). The sequence of threading these for shafts varies with the pattern.
The width in the reed is 14.38 inches.
The finished size of these placemats is 12 1/2" by 16.5", after machine washing and drying in a hot dryer.
The 6-treadle version of the pattern will be posted here soon.
