KNITTERS LOOM STAND

VARIABLE WIDTH

Who hasn't bent over their loom and wondered if it could be just a bit more comfy?

If you've debated getting one, know that the benefits of a loom stand are real and worthwhile.

A loom stand generally feels a tad pricey, but in reality, they offer so much more than just holding your loom in one place. They secure your loom so you don't need to clamp it down while working. They lift the loom to a nice height to sit at and weave. Ashford's are adjustable, so you can shift the weaving surface angle to your personal comfort. And, they make your loom even more portable, as you no longer need to haul around just-the-right-height surface to set your loom on.

Most Weavers agree, a loom stand upgrades your weaving experience in all the right ways, leading to longer and comfier weaving sessions and more ergonomic productivity.

And this loom stand is extra convenient and versatile, as it's adjustable to any width Ashford Knitters Loom, making it interchangeable, adjusting to your specific project's needs.

Just as Ashford's Knitters Looms are made of gorgeous hardwood, fully finished with eco-friendly water-based lacquer, so too are its hardy Loom Stands.

Committed to our planet and sustainability, Ashford Wheels & Looms uses "only the finest native New Zealand Silver Beech hardwood, sourced from sustainably-managed forests with Forest Stewardship Council approval" so you can "relax knowing your crafts are sustainable, renewable and environmentally-friendly" -- a value and goal that is dear and vital to myself, here at ANINI Designs.

And finally, this is the type of loom stand you buy once in your lifetime. It's that well-made. And, you can use it with any width Ashford Knitters Loom you may grow to have in your collection.

And if you're a wood snob, which I am, these are, simply put, so gorgeous. They're so incredibly well-made and beautiful that it was worth working with an overseas company (mindful & eco-conscious, to boot) to bring you these lifetime products and tools.

WHY PICK A RIGID HEDDLE LOOM?

When I talk with new & experienced weavers, everyone is looking for a loom that can get us weaving quicker and more efficiently. We all want a relatively quick and painless warp and weaving set-up and experience, while not compromising on quality and outcome. And that's where Rigid Heddle Looms come into the picture.

First off, Rigid Heddle Looms are the best loom you can get for such a varied and consistent experience. They offer ease of use through simple direct warping and a pleasant and versatile weaving experience. And, they take up sooooo much less room, allowing us to gather our favorite fibers and finally put them to use in our handwoven projects. And, they can be used traditionally as a plain weave tool, but also for narrow, fine and even tapestry weaving projects. Warp once and weave many projects. Weave on your lap, at a table, on the couch or in a tent outdoors! The skies the limit!
