How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter the barrel diameter (inner core) of the warp beam in inches.
  2. Enter the flange diameter (outer disc) of the beam in inches.
  3. Enter the total number of warp ends for your project.
  4. Enter the yarn WPI (wraps per inch) to estimate the yarn diameter.
  5. Set the usable beam width in inches between the flanges.
  6. Read the maximum warp length in yards that the beam can hold — ensure your planned warp length fits before winding.
