LONG WARP

ROUND 1

- Take the warp thread directly to the tension flap as illustrated.

ROUND 2

- Take the warp thread over the top peg 
   and over the tension flap.

Repeat Round 1 and Round 2 until the desired warp width is achieved. If you have a multicoloured 
warp, add one extra Round 1. Also, tie the first thread of the new colour to the last thread maintaining 
the same tension as the rest of the warp. On wider warps cut and tie when you change colours.
   

MAKING THE LEASHES 

Use string or fine strong cotton. Wind the string around the two leash pegs as shown.

Cut the string as shown.

Fold each leash in half and tie a knot 1cm (3/8”) from the end.

Round 1

Round 2
