The draft is 1 shaft against 3 for half the treadles and then flips and is 3 shafts against 1... so I don't think this will work for you. I could send you the image if you like. Send me an email to:<br />weeverwoman at yahoo.com<br /><br />SusanSusan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09707139508896058818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-54123710757676422842011-10-12T09:20:31.229-07:002011-10-12T09:20:31.229-07:00Hi Susan,

Question will it work on a counter balance loom, or does one need a jack loom? If it works on a counter balance loom, I would love to have the pattern. <br />Weaverly yours ......

The classic blue and white is lovely and you're right they are a real departure for you....I love them! <br />So happy to hear that water issues will shortly be a thing of the past! You deserve to have a break from all the hectic issues that have cropped up lately, and a long hot shower may just do the trick!Lynnettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459520887792560982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-30563740298043839252011-10-09T11:15:26.145-07:002011-10-09T11:15:26.145-07:00Thank you for all the great comments!

Send me your email address to weeverwoman at yahoo.com and I'll send you a copy of a 4 shaft draft.<br /><br />Dorothy: I don't mind the hand hemming! I just work away on them one by one at night while we watch the telly. Mind you these need to be ready for the sale later this month so a bit more pressure on these than normal :)<br /><br />SusanSusan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09707139508896058818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8767897696623067165.post-42716799839751099432011-10-09T07:26:46.533-07:002011-10-09T07:26:46.533-07:00I love simple.

It really does make sense to use that for these projects. I need more space so that it can stay out and be ready to use. As always, your work is beautiful and so fun to 'watch'. Happy Thanksgiving !!Lindahttp://treadlings.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
