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.

Measure the warp
Measure the warp
On the warping board wind as many threads as the width times the sett, each the cloth's length plus about 50 cm for tying on and loom waste.
