The little wooden loom is “warped-up” and ready for its first project.
It has eight notches per inch- that means that the threads are wound eight per inch onto the loom. If you're weaving with thicker yarn, you can wind the threads at 4 per inch.
The weaving area is 4.5 x 6 inches
The loom is made from sustainable birch plywood - it's laser-cut, then I sand it and give it an oil finish using non-toxic Danish oil, followed up by finishing wax - it feels so good in your hand!
Here's what's inside:
• wood loom- 5 x 7 inches
• one wood dowel
• one wood weaving needle- 6 inches long
• three bodkin needles- 2-7/8 long
• a bag to carry it all in
(Some reviews refer to this loom as an acrylic loom - I used to make it with acrylic, but I decided to stop using plastic.)
And if you need a little direction, check out my book, Little Loom Companion. It has all the basics for a beginning weaver and is small enough to toss in with your loom.
