Yes, Rich, the warp threads are tied to the heddle rod so that they can slide up as work progresses.<br>
The picture is far more complicated when you're weaving a twill and you use three heddle rods!<br>
You need also a starting band (tablet woven, usually) to be hanged from the loom, with all the warp threads arranged in groups stemming from it.<br>
I've seen it a pair of times and I cannot imagine myself as a weaver!<br>

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.
