Function and Artistry
I am a beginner at weaving, but I love creating and working with textiles and soft goods, so it's a medium that appeals to me. This project was a really satisfying way to combine my digital fabrication skills with my affinity for fiber art.

The Heddle
My loom accommodates a 30cm wide heddle, which I designed in 3 separate pieces that are sandwiched between top and bottom bars, fastened with some stock parts. The heddle can be easily taken apart to insert reeds with different dent ratios.
