Workshop notes explaining how to weave double weave with both layers in 2/2 basket weave on an 8-shaft loom, using a straight draw threading with alternating dark and light warps. They show how the tieup or peg plan is developed, how the top and bottom layers are separated and drawn down, and how color-and-weave variations arise from different treadling orders and six peg plans. A final section extends the idea to a window (frame) design on 12 shafts, with plain weave and basket weave options, and shows other threadings including one suited to 3/3 basket weave.
