My TOTT Loom

Published by SusanB at 9:24 PM under Looms

And that would be Tools of the Trade! It is a floor loom, 32 inches wide, 4 shafts, and 6 treadles. I got it at the end of my lessons with Margaret! She had heard of someone who was selling, she went to look at it, and she very calmly said that it was a good deal! Of course, I believed her.

I write about it in my blog here

And here is a picture:

I also have a table loom which I haven’t used as yet.

TOTT looms are highly sought after- congratulations!
Weren’t they made from a fellow from Vermont or was it New York?

Your loom’s very pretty and I’m sure it weaves great.
Speaking about great- how great is Margaret?!

Margaret is pretty great! I can never say enough about what an inspiring and enriching teacher she was and is!
I didn’t know TOTT looms were sought after! It was made in Vermont. And it does weave great, except for the current project which is my problem, not the loom’s.

To have Margaret as a teacher and a friend is a blessing

I know that in my loom searches on the web, people are seeking out the TOTT looms.
Joe Grew has a table loom TOTT for sale now.

That’s so true about human error when it comes to weaving!
