This pulling mechanism for controlling the heald frames of a loom equipped with a shedding machine comprises a set of connecting rods and oscillating levers (72) coupled to the set of connecting rods, for each heald frame, for returning a movement of the shedding machine to the heald frame. The pulling mechanism comprises at least one measuring portion (72C), equipped with a target (100) configured to interact with a sensor (110). For easier mounting and dismounting of the targets on the measuring portions, each measuring portion is provided on a peripheral wall of one of the oscillating levers (72), or a stabilizer of the pulling mechanism, the target being reversibly mounted on the measuring portion (72C).

A high thread count woven fabric for use in bedding products includes a 5-end sateen weave formed from a plurality of interwoven cotton warp and weft threads, wherein the number of warp threads per square inch of the fabric is at least about 240 and the number of the weft threads per square inch is about 9% to about 21% A higher than in conventional high thread count fabrics. A method of making the high thread count fabric includes setting up a weaving machine with a shed height and a backrest adjustment as described and shown herein to facilitate weaving the fabric with the high density of warp threads.

A weaving loom of the present disclosure includes a base and a heddle. The base has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion has a heddle base and first fins extending from the heddle base. The heddle is detachably coupled with the heddle base and has an axis and a central part. The heddle further includes a plurality of shedding sections formed on the central part and around the axis. The shedding sections are arranged along the axis for the central part to have a plurality of longitudinal rows having different topographies across different longitudinal portions of the central part. The heddle is configured to move between a plurality of positions with one of the longitudinal rows facing vertically upward.
