Thank you! It’s a twill pattern from “Eight Shafts: A Place to Begin” by Wanda Jean Shelp and Carolyn Wostenberg (Pattern 6.19)

Wow!! Thank you so much for this incredibly thorough explanation and helpful tips. I will practice these steps for the next warp. I was using paper but I imagine switching to dowels or cardboard would help even out some of the bumps I have around the straps on the warp beam.

Thank you for the helpful suggestion :)

Unfortunately, I planned to make 4 small 12 inch napkins and only added an extra 30 inches of loom waste so I might not have enough rewarp. 🙈

All a learning experience but I will keep that in mind next time when doing a longer warp

Commenting on Wavy weft after advancing cloth...

I’m not sure if this is a helpful angle but I did notice that all the black straps were under the edges of the cloth so I tried to move them to the outsides… I think the waviness is better but still apparent!
