This is a simple technique for weaving a smooth line as opposed to a wavy line on the horizontal. You can use it on a smooth, gentle curve too.
In the center of the photo below you see that I have placed a single weft of red in the new shed. Previously, I was weaving with two strands of red. I then lay one strand of the next color I will use, in this case one black, in the same shed as th eone strand of red. The weaving on the left, woven on top of the single strands shows how smooth the line becomes as opposed to the weaving on the right where I wove normally with two strands of black on top of two strands of red.
