You warp lenth is 90 inches for this scarf. I like to do a header with 8 rows
of waste yarn to close the "V".
3. Tie yarn to back tie bar and warp starting at left side were your marker
is, warp across the heddle to the last marker. Be sure to watch the video.
4. Start weaving and use a tape measure to mark your length and weave until
the scarf measures 70 inches long. Be sure and weave in your yarn ends.
Remove from loom. tie a knot very close to the woven scarf with 6 ends for the fringe, and trim to
4 inches long. Wet finish your scarf. Lay flat to dry

Nina, did you use the entire ball of yarn for warp and weft?

no, I had some left over, so I used it on a second scarf. I had purchased two balls of the same color. But one ball will make a scarf.
