Step 1 - Interleave the Threading

Steps to Interleave the Threading

• Open Star-OvershotOriginal.wif in TempoWeave studio.

• Open this same draft again, so that it now appears in two tabs.

• Save this file as a new name (Star-Step1.wif).

• Go to Design | Warp Advanced | Interleave Warp.

  • Select the source document as the Star-OvershotOriginal.wif.

  • Change the Shift to 2.

  • Apply

• Change the tie-up to a straight 1-2-3-4 tie-up in the first tab.

• Save this file with the changes as Star-Step1.wif.

To understand Interleave Warp with a Shift of 2 and Wrap, think of taking the threading for the single layer overshot warp (as shown above) and adding one blank space after each warp thread. Fill in the blank spaces by taking the warp thread to the right and shifting it up 2 shafts; since Wrap is being used, if a thread on Shaft 3 is being shifted by two shafts, it will wrap around to Shaft 1; Similarly, a thread on Shaft 4 will be shifted to Shaft 2.
