SCHACHT WOLF PUP LOOM

The new, lightweight, go anywhere and yes, a floor loom too, Pup. Much like the Baby and Mighty Wolf looms but designed for you to take it anywhere. Assembled weight is only 38 lbs. When folded, the Pup has a depth of only 16". It uses a simple direct tie-up system.

It is a kit loom that requires assembly, but it is small enough to be shipped by UPS. Includes handy treadle tracker, a mini-clipboard that attaches to the back of the loom (pictured further below) plus a stainless steel reed of your choice ( 6, 8, 10, 12, 15 or 20-dent), a brass reed hook, 3 lease sticks and flat steel heddles (or select inserted eye heddle option below if you prefer).
