           PROCEDURE

           TASK 1: Construct the plain weave design
           Construct the plain weave design on graph paper
                                                                 Fig 2
           1  Construct the plain weave in the point paper (Fig.1)

           Fig 1

                                                                3  Now based on the design divide the warp threads
                                                                   into two groups(i.e. first group is 1,3,5,7….: second
                                                                   group is 2,4,6,8…)
           2  Now construct the design, draft and peg plan for the   4  Draw the first group  of threads through the heald
              plain weave. (Fig 2)                                 shaft 1.
                                                                5  Like wise draw the second group of threads through
                                                                   the heald shaft 2.

           TASK 2: Drafting process of plain weave

           1  Take the yarn from the first group of the beam.   5  Likewise draw the second group of threads through
           2  Insert the heald hook into the heald wire.           the heald shaft 1.
                                                                6  Likewise draw the second group of threads through
           3  Attach the threads on the slot of heald hook.
                                                                   the heald shaft 2.
           4  Now pull the heald hook out.
