You can do what I suggest to not do; but your weaving will end up like an hourglass. To keep your weaving a rectangular shape you need space between your woven textile and the reed, so that you get roughly a similar angle as I’ve shown with your pick weft thread.
Always wind on your weaving and give your shuttle room to breathe!
Save this as a reminder for your own weaving projects, and come follow along for more.
