Home-Made Hand-Loom
Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A one-page magazine article describing how to build a small hand-loom at home, with dimensions for the frame, rolling beams, cloth and yarn beams, and brace. It explains the metal disk with 16 holes and a nail that replaces a ratchet wheel, how to attach muslin aprons and warp through a metal beater (16 to 20 dents per inch), and how to make lease sticks and a shuttle. Photos show a bag woven with embroidery weaving, a man's hand-woven silk tie, the loom in use, and a diagram of its parts.
