Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom
Made of New Zealand Silver Beech, the Ashford rigid heddle loom is available in four weaving widths. The heddle blocks on the inside of the loom are conveniently notched to hold the heddle in place when needed. Ashford now includes the double heddle blocks with their rigid heddle looms so all you need to do is add the correct heddles and you are set to weave with two heddles.
The Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom Kit is unfinished and requires assembly.

Reviews
I love my 16” Ashford
"I love my 16” Ashford Rigid Heddle! It is sturdy enough not to slide around on the table if I need to adjust the warp, but small enough for me to easily take with me to a meeting or class - both of which I have done! I have recently begun using the notch on the back to balance the loom on my lap against a table; this is a great feature which helps save strain on my shoulders. Highly recommend this product"

Great loom and great service
"I have always claimed to NOT be a weaver but tried a friend's Cricket and had to have a bigger loom. I am thrilled with this loom and am having a great time learning, weaving, and learning even more. Great loom, great service."
