Warp Layout

As promised, here is a photo of the warp chains as they will be beamed onto the loom:

The stripes from left to right are as follows:
grey-green solid
smaller painted
grey-green solid
wider painted
pale grey solid
wider painted
grey-green solid
smaller painted
grey-green solid

The weave draft is a snowflake-type pointed twill pattern:

In the draft, the grey stripes are the solid color stripes, and the green and purple are the painted stripes. The two (green) stripes will have the same painted dye order as one another, and the two wider stripes will be similar to one another. Not precisely exact, because this is warp painting (not an exact science, because it's Sandra's hands), not printing (an exact science that usually requires much more precise equipment).

More photos as the warp finds its way onto the loom.
