the Nomi Inkle Loom



my new mini inkle loom, soon to be in production. I LOVE it. super portable, and still able to weave 36 inches in length. And I thought the Schacht Loom was portable. I have a dozen on order. Can't wait for my first teaching class!

  1. Do I see letters in that rainbow band? Letters picked up on the horizontal bar background?
    I have always done letters on a sort of checkerboard, but would love to know how to do them on a horizontal bar instead.

  2. Hi Annie,
    Thanks for asking. Those are letters! This is my favorite lettering warp, so many letters contain a bar, that the weaving goes very quickly.
    I think it was an article in Handwoven Magazine in the early 90's, I will check my folder, and get you an exact issue. A weaver friend of mine, Leone Murphy, did a bookmark for me on the bar warp instead of checkerboard, and I have never looked back!
