Hi Weavers!
I wish you all a very Happy and Blessed Easter! ❤️

It’s a question that pops up in my inbox so frequently: “Which table loom should I buy?“
Specifically, the debate frequently centres around the Louet Jane and the Ashford Table Loom.
Now that I have extensive experience with both - and have recently spent a lot of time with the Lojan Flex Table loom as well, I can finally offer some comparison.
Each of these looms has a distinct “personality, and style” and the right choice really depends on your budget, your space, and to some extent, personal preference.
Let's get into some of the details to help you decide:
Table Loom Choices... (new article!)

COMPLETED PROJECT
I cut this 6 metre length off the floor loom this week! 80cm wide, 8/2 cotton, plain weave.
It was originally destined to be a jacket for one of my daughters but I'm not getting jacket vibes from it now. It will end up as some sort of clothing for one of us anyway!

LOJAN UPDATE
The Lojan Inkle Looms have been flying out my studio door recently, I even had 2 Complete Edition Inkles that sold before I could even open the delivery box 😆
I have Standard Inkle Looms, texsolv heddles, tablets and tablet boards currently in stock. I also have one Flex 8 Shaft and stand.
It's a good time to purchase, as everyone is aware, fuel prices are volatile and this will inevitably push prices up across the board, likely starting with shipping costs.
As a reseller for Lojan I am able to order any of their products including inkle, rigid heddle and shaft looms, plus their spinning wheels.
Reply to this email to enquire about Lojan products for Australia, or in the US, Revolution Fibers are a reseller.
You can check out Lojan resellers for your part of the world here.
