Build a Loom by Conservatoire des Vieux Metiers du Textile
Added: July 18, 2007 Rated 5 by 1 readers ( Vote now  1  2  3  4  5  )

This PDF file hosted by the University of Arizona contains complete instructions for building a full-sized Scandinavian-style loom.


Not to be confused with the small "toy" looms often found in do-it-yourself books, this is a serious loom for serious weaving. The PDF has been translated into English, so expect a few "strange" sentences, but in spite of that the directions are clear and complete.

To quote the introduction: This loom presents the advantage to be simple to make. It contains no shaped detail which is easily building by a handyman equipped to work the wood. Furthermore, 90 % of the elements use an unique wooden section, what will facilitate the supply. We shall supply you so all that is necessary to make this loom by you or a carpenter. You will have so a loom, solid, sure and well conceived which will bring you the biggest satisfactions for a budget very reasonable.
