Different Setts
The sett is how close the warp and weft threads are to each other.

You will find our recommended sett in the details along with each yarn type. This is a guide intended to give you a properly balanced weave (equal number of warps and wefts per cm/inch)
Experiment with adding more or less than this number to give you different effects.
Changing the warp sett across the width of the warp is called 'Cramming and Spacing'. Give it a go with some of the finer yarns for best effect.
