TheDrawloom

A weaver’s draft is a program in three small grids. Threading, above: which shaft carries each warp end. Treadling, at right: which treadle is pressed for each pick. Tie-up, where they meet: which shafts a treadle lifts. The cloth is their product. Draw in any grid · arrows and space too · hold the glass over the cloth

Longest float

The warp waits; the weft travels. Each end hangs on a shaft, each treadle lifts a few, and whatever skips too far is a float.
