Reed - Reed

Japanese: 筬 - おさ
Reed - Reed
A weaving attachment. It is a comb-shaped structure made of many thin plates (called reed fins) of steel (for power looms, metal reed) or bamboo (for hand looms, bamboo reed) arranged on a frame, and is housed in a rectangular frame. The warp threads are passed through the gaps between the fins. It is used to keep the warp threads at a constant density to determine the width of the fabric, to guide the left and right movement of the shuttle, and to make the fabric dense by beating in the weft threads passed through the shuttle.
