Plain-Weave Cotton Cloth on a Rigid Heddle Loom
Plain weave is the simplest cloth: each crosswise thread goes over one lengthwise thread and under the next, and back the other way on the next pass. A rigid heddle loom does the lifting: one bar of slots and holes raises or lowers every other warp thread at once.
The thread is the 2-ply cotton from the hand-spinning blueprint, used for both warp and weft.
