I have inserted eye wire heddles on my 22" 8H Harrisville. I just put a 20/2 tencel warp on, threaded for a combined draft and sett at 40epi for the twill sections and and 35 epi for the Bronson sections) and I'm having trouble with threads breaking in the heddles. When I went through my treadling sequence looking carefully at the heddles I can see that the raised heddles are catching the at-rest threads where the lower heddle bar twists. I have woven with 20/2 rayon sett at 40 epi on this loom in the past and did not have this problem, so I don't know if this is being caused by the threading sequence, or if there is something else going on. In the worst case, if I can't solve this issue, I will have to buy new heddles. I have looked for 10.5" flat steel heddles and can't find them, and I know HD only sells the inserted eye heddles. I don't particularly like texsolv heddles, but I could use them lacking another alternative. I had to add additional weight to my harnesses to accomodate the inserted eye heddles, so that part wouldn't be a problem. Has anyone else had this problem with ends catching when using inserted eye heddles? Any solutions? Thanks for any help! Susan
