Adjustable Wood Tapestry Loom — Handheld Weaving Frame with Stainless Steel Comb
$75.99
Descripción
Good weaving begins with a loom that works with you. This adjustable wood tapestry loom is designed for crafters who want flexibility without sacrificing control — a sliding mechanism that expands the weaving length from 3.46 to 11.77 inches, a stainless steel comb with rounded metal ends to protect your yarn, and a sturdy wood frame that holds its tension through every project. Whether you are working on a wall hanging, a small scarf, or a woven panel, this is the tool that keeps up.
Size Guide
| Setting | Metric | Imperial | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimum | approx. 8.8 cm weaving length | 3.46 in weaving length | Small panels, coasters, woven patches |
| Maximum | approx. 29.9 cm weaving length | 11.77 in weaving length | Wall hangings, scarves, small tapestries |
Weaving length measurements are approximate; a tolerance of ±0.5 cm / 0.2 in is normal. Sold individually — one loom per order.
- Large-scale tapestries or wide fabric panels exceeding 11.77 in — the maximum weaving width is fixed
- Very chunky or super-bulky yarns — the comb spacing is calibrated for light to medium weight yarn
- High-production or commercial weaving — this is a handheld frame designed for personal and hobbyist use
- Projects requiring rigid heddle or floor loom mechanics — this is a frame loom only

Why This Loom
- Adjustable range that grows with you: The sliding mechanism lets you move between a compact 3.46 in and a more generous 11.77 in weaving length within a single tool — no need to own multiple frames for different project scales.
- Yarn-protective steel comb: The stainless steel comb has rounded metal ends that guide yarn cleanly between warp threads without snagging or splitting — the result is even, consistent rows and less frustration mid-project.
- Wood that holds its tension: The sturdy wood frame resists warping and flex during use, maintaining consistent warp tension throughout a piece — particularly important for beginners still developing their weaving rhythm.
- Handheld portability: Light enough to take anywhere — a studio, a commute, a creative workshop — without sacrificing the structural stability needed for a quality finish.
- A genuine entry point into tapestry weaving: The straightforward setup and intuitive sliding adjustment make this loom an honest starting point for anyone approaching the craft for the first time, without the learning curve of a floor or rigid heddle loom.
Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the wood frame with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use. Remove any loose yarn fibres from the comb teeth with a soft brush or by hand.
- Avoid: Prolonged exposure to moisture or humidity, which can cause the wood to warp and affect the sliding mechanism’s smooth operation.
- Comb care: The stainless steel comb is rust-resistant; dry promptly if it becomes wet and check that the rounded ends remain smooth and free of burrs that could snag yarn.
- Storage: Store flat or hanging in a dry environment. Avoid leaving under tension (e.g. with warp threads loaded) for extended periods when not in use, as this can stress the wood frame over time.
- Sliding mechanism: Check periodically that the adjustment slides freely. If stiff, a very light application of beeswax or dry lubricant on the sliding surfaces will restore smooth movement without affecting yarn or projects.
FAQ
What yarn weights work best with this loom?
The comb spacing is calibrated for light to medium weight yarns (fingering to worsted weight). Very chunky or bulky yarns may not feed cleanly through the comb teeth. If in doubt, test a small section of yarn before beginning a full project.
Is this suitable for complete beginners?
Yes — the sliding adjustment and intuitive frame loom format make this a strong starting point for anyone new to tapestry weaving. No complex warping or setup is required beyond threading the warp.
How do I adjust the weaving length?
Use the sliding mechanism on the frame to expand or contract the loom to your desired weaving length. Set it before threading the warp, then lock it in position before beginning to weave.
Can I make scarves or garment pieces with this loom?
You can create narrow scarf panels within the 11.77 in maximum width. For full-width scarves or garment panels, you would need a wider loom. The frame is well-suited to wall hangings, small tapestries, and narrow woven accessories.
Is this sold individually?
Yes — one loom with comb included per order. Yarn and additional materials are not included.
