The Card or Tablet Weaving Loom

This card or tablet weaving loom is based on our mini inkle loom which is based on a tool dating back to the mid 19th century, but the type of fabric created on the card loom dates back into the early Egyptian period. Card woven strips were used in almost every culture through history, as trim strips, belts, and straps.

We offer our card looms in the Mini Card Loom which can do up to 5 feet, and a 15 foot heavy tension model, the minis are made from a furniture grade plywood, the 15 foot looms are made from various hardwoods. Our mini looms are not suited for the high tension warps, please see the 15 foot heavy tension loom. Interested in one each of mini inkle and card looms? Please see our inkle/card sets.

We make our card looms out of various hardwoods from around the world. The majority of our wood is reclaimed, this prevents some of the most beautiful wood from ending up in the dumpster. Each piece is hand rubbed with an oil finish, this helps to protect the wood and prolong the life of your loom.
