Diane wanted a saori loom for years and she chose a wxt0 folding wood model saori loom. she need a class in threading the ready made warp so when she returned home and assembled her loom she could hand the threaded warp on it and start weaving right away!
she finished threading the saori threading holder lets you thread comfortabley away from the loom( not bent over a loom for hours ) now she hung it on the studios wx60 to check for threading errors only one or two good job ! She chose the saori Wx60 folding loom and assembled it at home . Having the harnesses threaded and reed during an all day class is always i a great for new weavers, it builds confidence from the start.
we tied it up and i put the the inside set threaded into a canvas bag for her ride home with her boxed wx60 loom.
Diane tried on some of my saori clothing i have have made over the years
it was a wonderful full day !

meet Laura she wanted to try out looms she did … back and forth ch60 saori non folding, wx60 folding loom she loved both but in the end chose the ch60 loom. it does not fold but takes up less room thn the wx60 open so when ever she want to weave she does not have to pull a loom out but it is open for her already for her to weave.
all threaded hung on loom to check for errors there were none! good job Laura
love the saori built in bobbin winders!
laura sent me a photo her loom is all assembled and she is weaving ! she is very happy!
