THE LOOM

A narrative of the many different tools used by the pioneer weavers to produce cloth for their needs. Warp is twisted on the spinning wheel, and wound on the warping board; the chained yarn is wound from the swift onto the warping-board and the chained warp is removed from the board to the loom. The threading of the warp thru the heddles and reed is shown and weaving progresses.
