Attach a leash to all the top threads between each open
(centre) thread.

Keep the knot for the leash under each leash peg.

MAKING THE SHED

The shed is the space between the two layers of warp and is obtained by the use of leashes.

A thread NOT going through a leash is called an “open” thread.

Shed 1 Is made by lifting all the open threads
Shed 2 Is made by pushing down all the open threads

CHANGING SHEDS

To get the best shed, push down or lift up the threads with your fingers close behind the leashes.

SHUTTLE

Wind the weft thread onto the shuttle which is usually the same colour as the edge threads.

SHED 2
