Heddles come in a variety of sizes (dents) to allow you to control the number of strands of warp yarn per inch in your project. The standard heddle with each Kromski loom is 10-dent. Also available are 8 and 12-dent heddles. You will want to choose your warp yarn in relation to heddle size, because as the dent size number increases (8 to 10 to 12), the “thickness” of your warp material must decrease. As you expand your weaving interests you may want to have more than one heddle size.
Additionally, you may want to try using 2 heddles at the same time (2 heddles of the same dent size). This will allow you to approximate a 4-harness loom. The tie-up is a bit more involved and the process is not as easy as a true 4-harness loom, but for the occasional need, this is a nice option. Order an extra set of heddle blocks to support the extra heddle.
