I have enjoyed my
Piccolo Saori LOOM (s) for 6 years now. taught on them and wove on them. they are light weight a sheer delight! There is a upgrade kit for the harnesses. i have had them for months but just getting around to switching mine over!
here they are wooden sides for the piccolo harnesses. I have three piccolos in the studio and so yesterday I started to change over the harnesses with the upgrade kits. please email me for more info if you would like to adapt your over and buy a set.

Jill, Thank you for posting about the new Piccolo upgrade kit. I've received mine, but have a warp on. As soon as the cloth is off, I look forward to installing it. Thanks for the clear directions! Fleece and fiber in the New Year! Karen
ReplyDeleteYes i replaced mine with my inside set bundle tied up away from the looms. I really love the stable sides now on the harnesses for the piccolo's .however i have woven on the piccolos for 6 years now and had little problems. But it is nice to love them now even more!
