The best way we have found to put the heddles on your loom is to slide them on the heddle bars before removing the ties. They will probably fit very tightly at this stage. Once they are on the heddle bars, remove the ties and spread the heddles. They are connected to one another at the top and bottom. Most weavers clip them apart once they are on the loom.
