About this work
An inkle loom with a rigid heddle. A rigid heddle has half the warp threads threaded through vertical slits, and the other half threaded through round holes. As the heddle is raised and lowered, the threads in the slits stay put, and the threads in the holes are raised and lowered, forming the shed and countershed. The weft thread is the passed through the sheds. The heddle is raised and lowered with the treadles. Photo from the textile center in Haslach an der Mühl.
