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.

Wrap the thread round a ruler, touching but not crowded, and count the wraps in 2.5 cm. For plain weave set the warp at about half that many threads per 2.5 cm, and choose the heddle to match.

Raise the heddle, pass the shuttle through, beat the weft gently with the heddle; lower the heddle, pass back, beat. Leave the weft at a slant across the shed so the edges do not pull in.
