Japanese Market Bag - 8/4 Black Carpet Warp - 240 threads/4.75 yards long

This 240 thread warp can be used for any project that uses 8/4 cotton carpet warp, but it was wound with a specific project in mind! See the Nov/Dec 2023 issue of Handwoven Magazine, page 53 for photos and more information. Magazine cover and article in these photos. (The bag also requires a contrasting warp in equal thread number and length. I suggest my hand-dyed 5/2 mercerized, but other contrasting colors and yarn type will work as well.)

The length indicated on each warp tag is the approximate length after the shrinkage from the dye process. Each warp has a white info tag located at the cross. The warp is tied in 5 places: At beginning loop, the “thread by thread” cross at the beginning, a raddle cross at the end and a choke tie near each end. If you need more ties to secure it due to your personal setup techniques, add more. Please look over them carefully when you get them. If they will not work for you, please return them in their original condition for a refund or exchange. No refund on shipping costs.
