We now have a lot of looms at LAMM. The latest two where donated from 3RC, a “community” charity shop in Carnforth. The first one, a 24″ (600mm) wide rigid heddle loom, allows us to make realistic sizes of fabric, rather than just scarves (a limitation of our small old loom).
Quite coincidentally, they also received a donation of an old 4-shaft table loom, in surprisingly good working condition, which they decided would be best in our care.
Once it has been cleaned up a bit, we think this prove to be a great piece of kit to help with our goal to get people weaving!
Although our new looms are great, our project to design and make smaller frame looms is coming on apace.
