The Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom in the 60 cm (24”) width offers expanded weaving real-estate, ideal for designers and makers who want to weave wider fabrics, larger panels or more complex textiles without shifting into larger floor loom territory. According to specification, the rigid heddle model is available in widths 40, 60, 80 and 120 cm.
As with all Ashford rigid heddle looms, the turnkey kit includes essential accessories (clamp, warping peg, shuttles, reed) and supports a second-heddle option, giving scope for advanced techniques. The sturdy timber frame and quick warp setup make it suitable for both hobby and studio use.
For makers producing wide scarves, blankets, wall hangings or sample fabrics, the 60 cm width provides an ideal balance between size and manageability, all while retaining the advantages of a rigid heddle system.
