    TASK 3: Denting process of plain weave
                1  Take reed in front of the healds.                  4  Tie  a certain warp  yarns together  during  denting
                                                                        process.
                2  Hold the warp yarn and draw the first end through
                   the first dent.                                    5  Likewise tie all the threads of warp yarn.
                3  Likewise draw all the threads through the dents in   6  Now pull the warp thread uniformly through the reed
                   the reed.                                            and attach all the threads in the cloth beam.

                TASK 4: Construct twill weave design on graph paper
                1  Take a piece of graph paper.                       8  Continue this across the entire row.
                2  Draw a vertical lines and horizontal lines and make a   9  Continue  drawing  the diagonal lines in the same
                   grid.                                                direction.

                3  Each square on the paper represents one warp or    10 Repeat the  shifting and drawing process for  each
                   weft thread.                                         row until the entire grid is filled with diagonal lines.
                4  Decide on the size of the repeat pattern for your    (Fig 3)
                   twill. A common choice is a 2/2 twill, which means
                   the weave pattern moves over 2 threads in each      Fig 3
                   direction.
                5  Start at the bottom left corner of the grid.
                6  Draw a  diagonal line going from  the  bottom  left
                   corner of the first square to the top right corner of the
                   last square. This represents the warp going over the
                   weft. Fig 1

                                                                      11 Make sure each line follows the same direction and
                                                                        spacing to maintain the twill pattern.
                                                                      12 Once the entire pattern is drawn, color the lines
                                                                        that represent the over threads for a clearer visual
                                                                        representation.as shown in Fig 4

                                                                       Fig 4
                7  Move to the next square to the left and draw a
                   diagonal line in the same direction. (Fig 2)
