best loom for beginners — start weaving today
❋
What makes this loom work so well for first-time weavers?
We tried to think of everything. (We did pretty well.)
Most looms that make weaving easier and more powerful, like rigid heddle looms, can be complicated and time-consuming to set up. And relying on traditional drafts to make patterns can add another layer of difficulty (it did for me). We wanted a loom that would be simple and fast to set up, as well as interesting and satisfying to use — right out of the box.
Our beginner-friendly features:
Set up in minutes, not hours Just wrap the warp around the keeper slots and the teeth and pop in a pattern bar. No knots, no threading individual heddles, no tie-ups, no calculations.
Full how-to videos and written instructions Our videos, sampler instructions and written directions are like a mini course to get you up and running.
Clear pattern logic at your fingertips Turn the pattern bar between rows and the design builds itself, row by row. You see exactly what's happening and can vary the pattern in real time - no deciphering complicated drafts.
Beginner to expert in one tool Start with plain weave, then graduate easily to more complex patterns like twill, monk’s belt and krokbragd.
Compact and manageable Intentionally designed for tabletop or lap work. Real creative horsepower with lower investment of time, space, expense.
Our starter kits have everything you need to complete your first weaving, including tools we’ve sourced specifically for this loom.
