I know all of us have been there. We have threaded our looms and about four inches in from one side we find we put a thread on shaft one and it should have been on shaft two. Well, here is a way I learned to make a repair heddle that you can use over and over. Just keep it clipped to your loom until needed.
 |
| Things needed: scissors, four straight pins, two safety pins, some string and a metal heddle from your loom. |
 |
| Take your pins and put one on each end and two in the center eye of the metal heddle. |
 |
| Fold your string in half and slip it onto the safety pin end hole. |
 |
| Slip this over the pin that is in the metal heddle. |
 |
| Stretch the string over to the center pins. tie a knot around this first pin,. |
 |
| Now, tie a know around the next pin. This is the center eye of the heddle you are making. |
 |
| Go to the other safety pin and go up with one end and down with the other. |
 |
| Place the safety pin over the pin and pull and tie a knot. |
 |
Now you have a repair heddle that you can use over and over. Just hook the two safety pins over your shafts top and bottom bars on your loom.  |
