The loom used was much hke the looms found in the factories where handwoven woolen good3 are produced. Some of the modern home-economics departments in the universities have these looms set up for the instruction of their students. The patterns made with four sets of beadle frames are extremely complicated. For plain weaving of linen or cotton cloth just two sets of beadle frames were used. \Vhen the headles were threaded and a complicated pattern threaded into the cloth, the set of beadles was lifted by pressing the foot tradle to make the shed and the weft thread was shot through by means of a shuttle and pushed into place with one or two strokes of the batten. Weaver Set Up Loom· The coverlets were woven in stripes and sewed together. The housewife was sometimes incapable or lacked the time to make the covers in the more complicated patten-is, so the professional weavers traveling through the country ·made the covers for the housewives, staying two weeks here and two weeks there, setting up the looms and weaving the cloth. The thread was spun again.st the time of his coming, and often the visit of the weaver was the busiest tiine of the season for the housewife.
