I haven't come across an explanation yet, of when you'd use a finer reed with one thread per gap as opposed to a coarser reed and two threads per gap.

Project calls for 24 EPI/sett yarn.

My substitute yarn is 24 WPI, and I am aiming for 16 EPI for the twill (wool, if that makes a difference), and I have a reed to match (16 DPI). I hope that calculation is right! I'm happy for a wider project outcome than the pattern.

Until now, I've usually threaded two per gap in a coarser reed.
I could see that being an issue with grabby wool though - is it?

If it isn't, maybe I should get the coarser reed? (8 DPI was out of stock when I got the loom)
