Spooling course

"The specialized spooler is the one who uses the spool, a metal cylinder inserted in the shuttle of household sewing machines and some seamstresses and with the term to shuttle it indicates to go back and forth, up and down repeatedly. The shuttle or spool is the tool that contains the yarn for weaving. Entering the open shed between the warp threads allows you to insert the weft thread and build a fabric. The simplest shuttle is made with a wooden lath that has a notch or notch at each end. The clapboard is a few centimeters wide and more or less long in proportion to the width of the warp. Among the various types of spool we remember: tapestry shuttles in a low heddle frame are a turned wooden cylinder with a hole at the ends to load them on the winder, brocci are the shuttles for tapestry in a high heddle frame, built in turned wood, they have a tip at one end and a ball-like enlargement at the other to prevent the thread from slipping, shuttle for craft looms is made up of a block of wood , 20-30 centimeters long, pointed at the ends with a central slot containing a spool of thread, during the run the spool unrolls the thread leaving the comb to beat it against the previous weft to compact the fabric.
