Popular because they are portable, easy to use, and so versatile, the Ashford table looms are in demand with both beginner and experienced weavers.

Option with built-in shuttle race is available for the Ashford Table Loom 4 Shaft.

Smooth lacquer finish
Portable
Easy to use and versatile

Overhead beater with automatic bounce back
Extra stainless steel reeds are available in 5 sizes
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.
Can I upgrade this loom to 8 shafts later?
No, the Ashford 4-shaft table loom is not designed for shaft upgrades; consider purchasing an 8-shaft model if you anticipate needing more shafts.
How does this loom compare to the Ashford Katie Loom?
The Katie Loom is more compact with a 30cm weaving width, suitable for travel and sampling; the 60cm table loom offers a wider weaving width for larger projects.
What types of projects are suitable for this loom?
This loom accommodates a variety of projects, including scarves, shawls, table runners, and fabric for garments.
How does the overhead beater enhance weaving?
The overhead beater, with the automatic bounceback, provides a great shed, aids in producing a consistent beat and thus improves fabric uniformity, enhancing the quality of your weaving.
Can I use different reed sizes with this loom?
Ashford offers stainless steel reeds in various dents (6, 8, 10, 12, and 16 dpi) compatible with this loom. You may also weave with narrower or wider reeds if they fit the beater's height dimensions; however, it may not provide the best weaving experience. Using a reed that’s either too wide or too narrow for your project could result in a less ideal beat (how tightly or loosely the weft is pushed against the warp), affecting the overall texture and appearance of your woven piece.
Is this loom suitable for beginners?
Absolutely, its user-friendly design makes it ideal for both beginners and experienced weavers.
How does this loom compare to the Ashford Brooklyn Four Shaft Loom?
The Brooklyn model, at 40cm, is more economical in its build (ply sides) and designed as a stepping-stone for rigid heddle weavers; the 60cm table loom offers a wider weaving width and all-over beech hardwood construction.
What maintenance is required for this loom?
Regular dusting and occasional application of a suitable wood conditioner will maintain its lacquered finish; ensure moving parts are kept clean and free from debris.
Can I weave with fine threads on this loom?
Yes, by selecting an appropriate reed and ends per inch, you can weave with fine threads effectively.
