The perfect kit for the beginning rigid heddle loom weaver including their first project to weave a gorgeous 4 ply scarf. This is ideal for someone who wants to be guided with a scarf weaving kit to help them get to know their loom and build up their confidence so that they can then tackle their own projects going forwards. This kit has the yarn and pattern (with instructions) to weave a red and grey scarf using lovely soft yarn.
The scarf shown in the picture is not included as you will be using your loom and the kit to weave your own scarf.
The kit creates a beautiful checked scarf which is 22cm wide, 150cm long with an additional 12cm fringe at each end. The pattern is relatively straightforward and is a perfect project for a beginner.
This loom has been designed and made totally by us in our workshop in the UK. Dimensions of the loom are 34cm x 39cm x 11cm(with the heddle in the up position) or 9cm(with the heddle in the down position). The loom also has a neutral position allowing the weaver to progress onto more complex pick up stick weaving techniques going forwards.
