Here's my learning piece. Different tensions, switched the colour of the weft to see what happens, and tried out a mod' to the card turn pattern.
The result, is supposed to be a messy: Oh, That's what that does!

Before the nect weaving project, to make a mate to this one, I'm going on a journey of learning about 4 shed looms.
Now that I've done so much by hand, I have a much better understanding of what needs to happen with the threads, drilled into my head.

Today's project, (and many days previous and future,) is weaving on a stationary loom. (A very non traditional two by four, with small nails holding the warp threads!).
The pattern: broken herringbone.
