| Weft??? Had never heard of it before today. I listed all the possible words- tarp, tent, went, lent, warp, want, tart, but lo, I was unable to find weft. Next time... |

| Good puzzle. Would never have solved it though as I've never heard of weft. I seen warp alright but not its opposite. Still enjoyed it though! |
