Answer:

With a traditional shuttle, the rhythm of weaving involves several movements: the weaver opens the shed by stepping on the treadles, throws the shuttle with one hand, catches it with the other, and then uses the throwing hand to beat the weft in after closing the sheds. With the flying shuttle, the weaver's movements are minimized: he only has to change the sheds using his feet on the treadles, pull the cord and beat. His hands don't have to throw or catch the shuttle. Since the weaving width is no longer limited to the width of the weaver's reach, the fabric -- and the loom -- can be much wider than the reach of a man's arms.
