How will your warp behave?

Warp shrinkage (depends on material, typically 10–15%)

Warp take-up (depends on PPI, typically 10–15%)

How will your weft behave?

Weft take-up (about 10% for a balanced weave and higher for a weft-faced weave)

Sett and width

Width in the reed (inches)

Warp sett (EPI)

Weft PPI (similar to EPI for a balanced weave, higher for a weft-faced and lower for a warp-faced)
