Warp length 90 inches, including loom waster and fringe.

Read all and watch video before starting.

1. Find center of heddle and tie a string around it

2. Measure 4 inches each side from center  of heddle and place string around them

 Watch this video to find out how to warp your loom without someone to help
 you.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0aFlG7294w

 She shows you how to tie the ends on the loom and start weaving.
 Here's one is you have someone to help you warp and change colors.

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
