Question

The ............... is the space between the two halves of the warp in which the weaver places the weft thread/yarn just after the reed while weaving on a loom.

• A. Beater
• B. Shed
• C. Lease Rods
• D. Heddle

Hint:

In weaving, remember: Heddles control warp threads, Reed beats the weft, and the Shed is where the weft is inserted.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Weaving Components
- The {reed} is a comb that packs the weft yarn.
- The {heddles} manage warp threads.
- The {shed} is the space between warp threads.
Step 2: Shed Function
The shed is created when warp yarns are raised or lowered, forming a gap. The weft yarn is passed through this gap.
Step 3: Summary
Therefore, the Shed is where the weft is inserted.
