This is some basic information in calculating ones yardage for a project.
Will add other, more detailed records, in the future.

WARP Figuring the yardage of yarns needed for warp
- Warp length:
- (in inches) __________________
- Add loom waste
- + ____________________
- Warp length:
- (in inches) __________________
- Add loom waste
- + ____________________
- Equals:
- = ____________________
- Add ___ % for shrinkage
- + ____________ Depending on fiber
- Guide string: wind-off
- = ____________ Length for each warp thread
- Multiply by Width x e.p.i.
- ___ x ___ = ____
- Yards needed for warp = ____________
WEFT Figuring the yardage of yarns needed for weft
- Weft Width
- = ____________
- Multiply by p.p.i.
- x ____________
- Equals:
- = ____________________
- Multiply by length
- x ____________
- Equals:
- = ____________________
- Divide by 36
- = ____________ Yards needed for weft
