Weaving the heading band

11. Switch the threads with the heddle again, grab another loop and follow the same path and repeat. As you weave you will have to rotate the heading band around the dowels because the spot that you are working on needs to be facing down towards the far dowel.

12. As you rotate the heading band the loops around the angle dowel will make it impossible to turn it. Remove the loops and divide them into two sections (it doesn’t matter if they are mixed up). Tie each section into a very loose knot or ball to keep them untangled and out of the way.

13. When the heading band has been woven all the way around, take it off the warping frame and tie each end to the loom top beam, leaving the knots hanging down.

14. Using strong thread sew the heading band through the holes of the top beam. There are traditional ways to do this with a stitch sort of like a buttonhole stitch, but anything will work if it is secure.
