Medium Handywoman Tapestry Loom
This loom is one of a kind so it will not be restocked, when it is gone it is gone.
This handmade tapestry loom is used to make lovely wall hangings or to sample new yarns. You will receive the loom pictured. This is a Medium 8x10.70 (weaving area 7.75x7.375) tapestry looms and is 8epi . This marvelous loom was prominently displayed at the Arts and Craft Museum as part of the exhibit "Tools of the Trade."Handywoman warp bars have been cut with the grain so the ends will never snap off with normal use. The teeth are sanded in between each by hand then with a hand sander they are sanded 5 times as you see in the video. These teeth are sturdy enough to take it. :)
The loom is shellacked and waxed to the shine you see in the pictures.
This listing is for the loom only.
These are handmade and imperfections are part of their charm. No returns or exchanges for manufacturing faults such as not being completely square, or teeth bending because of removing your project incorrectly. I suggest taking a class on how to weave on your new loom or watching videos before you begin. If 8epi looms warped too tightly or if you remove your warp with a tool instead of cutting off the loom you might experience some teeth bending or cracking. This can often be repaired or worked around, contact me if you have damaged your loom and need a repair.
The best way to learn to weave on these little looms is by taking a class from Rebecca Mezoff. She teaches Weaving Tapestry on Little Looms.
