I tied it for the 3rd time yesterday & after seeing your top picture showing the space between the bottom of the harness & the lamms & treadles, I think I have to lower my treadles & tie up again. When I get it right, then I will do the switch to Texsolv for tie up.<br />Hopefully suzibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11263998022664369708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1825758438498694806.post-36307350751905191712007-09-15T11:39:00.000+01:002007-09-15T11:39:00.000+01:00Excellent post Dorothy.

For the guitar-string deprived, I use a crochet hook to pull the cord through. <BR/>As you get more experienced threading, you will be able to do larger groups. For example, with a straight draw, you might do 3 groups of 8 and then go back and check them. But don't push yourself too fast here. Accuracy is primary, speed is secondary.Peg in South Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886923838871937466noreply@blogger.com
