The Quartet re-imagines our most popular rigid heddle loom, the 15" Cricket and transforms it into a 4-shaft loom with a 13-1/2" weaving width. We engineered the Quartet with thoughtful features that help you weave more complex patterns. Closely spaced levers move with smooth action to raise and lower shafts. You'll achieve clean sheds with help from the extended back beam. The pivot beater maximizes your weaving space. In keeping with Schacht's commitment to quality, the Cricket Quartet is manufactured in the USA, made from high-quality maple plywood and solid hard maple, and left unfinished to match your Cricket loom.
The Cricket Quartet is now available to order through a Schacht dealer: schachtspindle.com/product/cr...
