Tapestry
Loom
Tapestry weaving is considered by many to be the
most personal of all weaving. Among the simplest of looms, the tapestry loom holds a
continuous warp under tension, allowing the weaver to see all of the warp at once. Sheds
are formed using heddle bars and string heddles. While only two heddle bars are needed for
traditional tapestry weaving, we provide four heddle bars so that beginning weavers can
also experiment with 4-shaft pattern weaving.

To keep the warp tension even throughout your
weaving, our tapestry loom has a tension beam with thumbscrews on the end which allow for
easy adjustment. Available in 18" and 25" weaving widths, our continuous
warping system allows a 60" long warp to be put directly on the loom without using
any other warping tools.
A-Frame Stand
Designed for use with our portable tapestry looms, our
A-Frame Stand inexpensively answers the question of how to hold the loom upright on the
table top or the floor while weaving. The adjustable side arms let you vary the
angle, and may be folded up for storage.
Tapestry Beaters
We make three styles of tapestry beaters: single-ended, double-ended, and a
weighted single-ended. All are made of hard maple and have a smooth Danish oil
finish. The wooden teeth are set at five per inch. The weighted beater has
about five ounces of lead weight inserted into the end to provide more impact for tighter
weaving.
Tapestry Bobbins
Due to issues with our supplier, we are no longer carrying the tapestry
bobbins.
