Rigid Heddle Loom Scarf Weaving Kit
I purchased this kit to restart my weaving hobby. The kit arrived with everything included, almost within hours of ordering. The loom itself was pre assembled so there was no issues with that..... I read all the instructions and advice that came with the kit, all easy to understand.... very clear, all in all I am very impressed with TabbyandTweed and would recommend. Alistair
Beginners Weaving Gift Box Set
I am an absolute beginner and found TabbyandTweed on YouTube. I thought the two looms with easy projects would be perfect for me. The gift box was carefully prepared and packed. Lovely looms, rich yarn colours.

Bookmark Loom Weaving Kit
Really love this small kit. Easy to take anywhere in a small bag. Chose Rainbow colours they are lovely. Well designed and good instructions.
Ann
Square Frame Loom Weaving Kit
Great little loom, beautifully presented and finally learned to hemstitch thanks to the links to blog posts included in the information leaflets.
Kate
Weaving Workshop
Looms were already set up so after a brief introduction we got on with our creations. We were also shown how to set up the looms to start from scratch. Anyone interested in taking up with craft I would recommend this workshop.
Alison
Inkle Loom Weaving Kit
Small enough to carry around and sturdy enough to get a nice firm warp on it. You have to make your own heddles and wind the skeins which slowed me down starting my first project a bit but now I am up and running and would recommend to anyone who wants a small, portable (and affordable) inkle loom. Great to have some threads included and shuttle etc too. Karin
Scarf Weaving Rigid Heddle Loom Kit
Fantastic kit easy to follow instructions.
Chris
Rainbow Bookmark Weaving Loom Kit
This was a Christmas gift for my daughter. She made the bookmark within a day and found the loom easy to use and the instructions very helpful. It was her first experience of weaving. The wool is very good quality.
Lyn
4 shaft Extension Kit for rigid heddle loom
Delivery very quick. I really like the fact that I can extend my skill set with weaving without a huge layout, but by adding to my existng loom.

What happens at a weaving workshop?
Workshops use small frame looms and rigid heddle looms. One attendee reported that the looms were already set up, so the group began weaving after a short introduction and was also shown how to set up a loom from scratch.
