Rigid Heddle Yarns

You can use almost any yarn on your rigid heddle loom as long as you are using the correct heddle dent size. Here are some options that are particularly good for beginners as they can be woven with the heddle that comes with your rigid heddle loom.

Omega Sinfonia - This is a 100% Mercerized Cotton, 6 ply yarn. It comes in balls of 218 yards. This is a sport weight yarn so it's a little smaller than you would normally weave with on an 8/7.5 dent heddle, but that's okay your project will just have a little bit looser weave!

Brown Sheep Nature Spun Worsted - This is a 100% Wool, 3 ply yarn. It comes in balls of 245 yards. We know you will love the feel of this 100% U.S. grown and spun yarn.

Handspun Hope Organic Merino Yarn - Certified 100% organic wool yarn is hand spun and dyed in Rwanda by the ladies of Handspun Hope. It comes in 185 yard skeins. Handspun Hope is a certified member of the Fair Trade Federation.
