INKLE LOOM FOR MAKING BELTS, ETC.
INKLE LOOM FROM FRED’S SHED
Inkle weaving is a type of warp-faced weaving where the shed is created by manually raising or lowering the warp yarns. You can make inkle belts, or use for Tablet Weaving. There are plenty of instructions on the internet as well as YouTube videos.
The loom is designed to create long, very strong braids. Weave intricate patterns and embellish with different types of yarns, beads and colours. Make trims, tassels, bands, straps, chokers, dog leads and more. The loom is made from NZ Rimu wood and strongly constructed. The warp tension can be adjusted with the adjustable tension peg. Compact size for portability and easy storage.
Here is a book, in colour, you can download from Ashford looms. This loom is a bit different, but you can get the idea. Current price of an Ashford Inkle loom is $119.00

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
