Double width overshot


The blanket is underway. In the video below I explain how the floating selvedges are managed. Because I've added alternate picks of tabby to the pattern, which requires two shuttles, it is easier to do two picks of pattern followed by two picks tabby. As the blanket is woven folded, the two picks equate to one pick across the entire width of the unfolded cloth.


Photo below is straight off the loom, because the cloth is folded I'll have to hemstitch after removing it. The second half of the warp is on the loom for blanket number 2.

 
Fishing line removed, the crease should go after wet finishing
