Agreed. Every other explanation I've seen just tells you to measure using the top peg and the heddle peg. But with this explanation, I can see how that may not always work!

The threads tied at the top of the loom -- at first I thought it was a HORSIE!! HA!

[@impendinglooms]

LOL! I see it now! Really it’s just a rope handle. 😂
