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
