Hokett Looms coming soon!
I have a few "regular" sized Hokett looms, and "intermediate" sized Hokett looms, and a couple of tools that are great for tapestry weaving.
Right now, I only have 8 dent looms in the regular (original) and intermediate sizes in stock. I will be putting them on the website soon, hopefully early this week. If you'd like to buy one, email me at weavingrainbow (at) gmail dot com, or leave a comment. Here are some details about the stuff I have:

HAND
LOOMS, ORIGINAL/REGULAR SIZE:
They're about 7" wide by 8" long. The weaving area is approximately 6" by 6-1/4".
There are slots at the top and bottom for warping. You can warp by putting your warp thread into the slot and wrapping around to the next tooth. You don't need to warp around the back.
There are videos that show how to do this.
The looms are shaped like a capital "I" and shaped so it can be held in one hand.
They are made with a variety of exotic and domestic hardwoods. 8-dent $30.00 each.
