I'm in the wrong bubble, but boosting might help. 🙏
My wife is new to #weaving. After #spinning the on her #spinningwheel and coloring it herself, she spent much time #warping the #loom. And now it doesn't work as expected. 😩
The problem is, that the space between upper and lower warp thread (marked red in one of the photos) seems to be too small. The heddle pushes the lower thread up. See description in Alt-Text.
We bought the loom second hand, and nobody here is an expert. Can anybody help?

A four-shaft loom, warped with self-spun wool. View from the side. Should the warp threads run over the rear beam (on the right)? My wife says she tried that in her first test project, and it makes no difference. The space between the warp threads (marked red) is too small. Could be bigger, but the lower part of the heddle pushes the lower threads up (marked blue).
