Convert your rigid heddle loom for multi-heddle weaving with the Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom Second Heddle Kit. Simply remove the existing heddle support blocks and replace with the new “double” blocks into the same pilot holes.
Use the blocks to double your ends per inch, or to weave two layers of cloth at the same time! A further reed identical to your existing reed will be required. For example, two 12.5 dpi reeds give 25 ends per inch and will allow for greater experimentation with your weaving patterns. Instructions for weaving with the two heddles and patterns are included.
The Ashford Rigid Heddle Loom Second Heddle Kit is left in the natural wood so that you can choose your finish. Make a statement and stain the wood any colour you like, or bring out the natural grain of the wood by applying Superior Danish Oil – the options are endless. Supplying Ashford products untreated means we are able to pass on a saving of the product cost, making them excellent value for you.
