Description
This wooden weaving loom set brings together a beech frame loom and soft wool yarn, so you can weave your own small wall hanging at home. The loom is a simple rectangular frame with a row of notches along each end to hold the warp threads. It comes with beech shuttles, a beech comb for pressing each row snug, metal thread spacers and a slim beech stick to hang the finished piece from. The wool comes in a cheerful mix of sage green, coral, mustard yellow, pale blue and cream, ready for bold stripes or gentle blocks of colour. The set measures 29.2cm long, 19.5cm wide and 4.6cm high, so it stores easily.
Weaving is a calm, absorbing craft, and a small frame loom is one of the friendliest ways to begin. The box carries easy to follow instructions for beginners, so you can learn to warp the loom, pass the shuttle and comb each row into place. That makes the set a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves making things with their hands. It is also a handy loom for practised weavers who want to try out colour combinations before starting something larger. The finished hanging looks lovely above a desk or along a hallway wall, and the woven piece can just as easily become part of another creative project.
Every wooden part is beech, a pale, smooth hardwood that is pleasant to handle, while the thread spacers are metal and the yarn is wool. The comb's wooden teeth press each pass of yarn down evenly, and the shuttles hold a good length of wool so you can work across in long, steady passes. Look after the loom by dusting it with a soft dry cloth and keeping it somewhere dry. It comes in its own printed box, ready to wrap, and a few extra skeins in favourite shades make it an even kinder present.
