Going over-under one warp will give you a steeper diagonal than over and under two, but you can make the wedge any height based on how many passes you do all the way to the selvedge before you start moving over, if that makes sense. Height of the wedge is not determined by how many warps you move over with each pass, only the angle or steepness is. Hope that makes sense. You can stop and start colors at either the top or bottom in my experience, though Deborah Corsini recommended the top. Being consistent about it makes life easier. Good luck!

It seems to me to get the first wedge higher than one inch I would have to pass over and under only one warp. Also, does one start and stop new colors at the top or the bottom of each color strip?
