Anne Marie's Weaving Gallery - The Looms

My weaving studio now consists of 5 looms

My original 6 shaft loom which was made in NZ. This loom, I use mainly for trials pieces and light weight fabrics and articles.

My main attention these days is on weaving rugs but I also experiment with tapestry.

The latest 6 shaft project using 2 ply yarn from my alpacas & spun up on the mini mill equipment

is a shawl in brown & white checks. Finished photo coming soon....

The second loom is one which I purchased some years ago in Sydney which is a counterbalance 8 shaft.

This one presented some problems initially with setting it up as it had not been used for some time but now is a very pleasurable loom to weave with.

The following loom is now For Sale

The Eric Noble Rug Loom, which I purchased from Bella Head in Adelaide,  is a very sturdy 4 shaft rug loom with a weaving width of more than 70 inches. 

The article pictured is my first trial piece of both warp and weft being home spun alpaca in various colours.

For sampling, I use a little 8 shaft Ashford loom which is also good for scarves and small pieces.
