This is a wider version of Ashford's original SampleIt loom. It is still a great option for sampling but is also wide enough to tackle shawls, table runners, and placemats. It is small but sturdy, made of solid Silver Beech wood and featuring strong ratchets and pawls so that your tension is maintained consistently.
The 16" SampleIt loom features:
- 16" weaving width
- 7.5 dpi rigid heddle
- 2 flat shuttles
- warping peg
- double-ended plastic threading hook
- clamp
- 20-page weaving instruction booklet
- total weight of only 3.75 pounds
Additional rigid heddles are available in 2.5, 5, 10, 12.5, and 15 dpi.

The SampleIt loom ships unassembled and unfinished. A coat of wax or sealant is recommended.
