Box collapse weaving

I have set up this warp to 40 cm by 1.90 meters long. with 5 repeats of cotton and wool designed across the width. To equate for the shrinking of the wool that will occur in the wet finishing process, I have made the wool almost twice the size to create a the "boxes" of collapse I wanted. I think the results were okay nothing I too impressed about but, I think that this was because of the colour dyeing process. I used a dobby loom and wet finished the samples at 80 degrees.
