Description

Designed from Jane Stafford's wish list, the Jane Loom has everything you want in a table loom, whether you're just starting out or have woven for years. This loom folds down, even when warped, and the swinging beater ensures consistency.

Select from three weaving widths to meet all your needs. Start with 16 shafts, or choose the 8-shaft expandable model to add shafts later. Add convenient accessories at any time, like a floor stand, loom bench, shuttle race, or second warp beam (double back beam).

What's included

  • 40-10 dent reed (about 10.16 ends per inch)
  • 2 apron bars
  • 2 lease sticks
  • 16 warp sticks
  • Texsolv heddles (205 mm) - 200 for 40 cm, 400 for 50 cm, 600 for 70 cm, 800 for 90 cm
