Constanza's Loom
by Woodstuffs of NC

Item #CC-002
$110.00

Constanza has agreed to have Woodstuffs build her design. Woodstuffs uses a higher grade of wood in assorted hardwoods such as oak and maple, instead of pine and cedar like the old design. Instead of a strange cutout which only fits one side, the new model uses a tied on dowel rod for the same effect, without the worry which end it came from or its orientation. This model is best used for card/tablet weaving and rigid heddle projects. Inkle done on this loom must be done the old-fashioned way with the rigid heddle. The heddle shown is 10" long and is sold separately as is the shuttle.

Widths vary by loom from 6" to 10" . Call Ursula (877) 215-6643 for availability on widths. The length of the band produced is still up to you. Thickness of yarn and the paper used in winding affect the amount you can put on. Lengths of 8 yards using #10 crochet cotton are not unusual. The old loom instructions are available. New loom instructions are forthcoming.

These are highly polished shuttles made from exotic woods right here in America. All fancy belt shuttles (in upper half of picture ) are 7.5" long and have the same sharp edge for beating. The shape is designed so that the thread does not unwind much when you drop it. Stick shuttles (shown in lower half) are 1" wide by 7.5""; long. Please call us for availability of wood desired. Since these are all handmade, it takes time to replenish out of stock items.
