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...
I learned it in art class in 5th or 6th grade...

Ugh. I thought of looking up that word, but thought it sounded silly.
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!
