The members are superimposed with the apertures in alignment and the grooves opposite the slots. The unit is secured by laser, spot or sonic welding. After insertion of the yarn(s) in the aperture, the heddle is rotated 180.degree. with respect to the yarn(s) and the yarn(s) is/are captured in the channel formed by the opposed grooves.
