How do I keep track of my treadling while I weave?
Open your pattern and choose Weave. Each coloured bead shows the weft yarn for the next pick, and which treadle to press or which shafts to lift.
How do I move to the next pick?
Picks appear in groups. After you've thrown every pick in the group, tap the screen to move on. You can also swipe forward or say "next" if Voice Control is on.
Made a mistake? Swipe back or say "back". You can change how many picks are in each group in Settings, under Weaving Focus.
Can I see treadles or shafts?
Yes. In Settings, under Loom Setup, choose Treadles or Shafts. You can also choose jack or counterbalance, so the beads match how your shed opens. See the loom setup guide.
Lift plan drafts show shafts only. See the lift plan guide.
What happens at the end of the draft?
If your draft repeats, tap to loop back to the start and keep weaving. Your place is saved if you leave the app.
Tip
Tap the eye icon to check the tie-up and the full draft, then come back to your place.
