The Ashford Rigid Heddle weaving loom is affordable, easy to use, quick to assemble, and versatile enough to allow a variety of projects. The loom comes with everything you need to get started, you just need to add the yarn of your choice.
Weaving on the Ashford Rigid Heddle is easy, and fun, and allows you to express yourself through colour and texture. It's great for making scarfs, fabric panels, wall hangings, and a range of unique homewares.
Made from solid timber, the natural Silver Beech hardwood is strong and made to last. The Ashford rigid heddle is similar to the Ashford SampleIt and Ashford knitters loom, but it has been made of a sturdier timber and does not fold.
Does the 60cm (24") Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom come with Texolv heddles?
No, the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom comes with a 7.5-dent reed. Texolv heddles are typically used with table and floor looms.
Will the 120cm (47") Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom be able to connect to a loom stand if I purchase them separately? Does it come with instructions for set-up and how to use it?
Yes, the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom will fit onto a loom stand even when purchased separately and they do come with instructions.
If the Ashford item you want is on backorder, please be advised that there is a wait time of approximately 1.5 weeks before it gets shipped. Please note that this is a general estimate and unexpected production and delivery delays can occur, and that certain Ashford items can have different back-in-stock dates. To confirm when an item would be back in stock, please email our team at hello@threadcollective.com.au.

Does the 60cm (24") Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom come with Texolv heddles?
No, the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom comes with a 7.5-dent reed. Texolv heddles are typically used with table and floor looms.
Will the 120cm (47") Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom be able to connect to a loom stand if I purchase them separately? Does it come with instructions for set-up and how to use it?
Yes, the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom will fit onto a loom stand even when purchased separately and they do come with instructions.
How long of a warp can the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom handle?
The length of the warp depends on the materials being used on the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom. It's safe to plan on 15ft (5yds) unless you will be using bulky or very fine yarn.
Can I add another heddle to my Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom?
Of course! All Ashford rigid heddle looms come with the built-in second heddle option.
What can I weave on a rigid heddle loom? Can I use it for anything else other than weaving tapestries?
The rigid heddle loom is such a versatile loom and you can weave many kinds of projects on it. For example, garments, cushions, placements, tea towels, wraps and many more! "The Ashford Book of Rigid Heddle Weaving" is a great resource book in which you will learn how to create fun and wonderful garments and homeware.
What is the difference between the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom and the Ashford SampleIt Loom? Do both looms come with the same set of accessories?
Both the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom and the Ashford SampleIt Loom have a rigid heddle. However, the SampleIt Loom has the narrowest weaving width of all the Ashford rigid heddle loom options. It can be used to quickly warp up and sample a pattern before transitioning to a wider warp on a larger weaving loom.
The Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom and the Ashford SampleIt Loom come with the same accessories. There are also optional additional accessories you can purchase for these looms.
What is the difference between the Ashford Knitters Loom and the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom?
The difference between the Ashford Knitters Loom and the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom is in how wide you want to weave because these looms come in different sizes. The Rigid Heddle Loom is available in 20cm, 40cm, 60cm, 80cm, 120cm widths while the Knitters Loom comes in 30cm, 50cm, and 70cm widths. Another difference between the two is that the Knitters Loom is ready assembled. You just need to take it out of the box, warp your loom, and you can start weaving right away. The Rigid Heddle Loom, on the other hand, requires assembly.
