The longitudinal threads are called the warp and the lateral threads are the weft or filling. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yCfgCb2IWk] A handloom is a machine used for weaving. In a wooden vertical-shaft loom, the heddles are fixed in place on the shaft. The warp threads pass alternately through a heddle, and through a space between the heddles (the shed), so that raising the shaft raises half the threads (those passing through heddles), and lowering the shaft lowers the same threads-the threads passing through the spaces between the heddles remain in place.Handloom Weavers
Handloom weavers were mainly men, due to the strength needed to batten. They work from home sometimes in a well-lit attic room. The women of the house would spin the thread they needed, and attend to finishing.
Later women took to weaving, they obtained their thread from the spinning mill and working as out workers on a piecework contract.
