NEW! Schacht Cricket Quartet
Enhance your 15" Cricket Loom and expand your weaving options with the Cricket Quartet!
This upgrade to the popular Cricket Loom lets you weave with 4 shafts to create more complex patterns on the loom you already know and love. The Cricket Quartet reimagines Schacht's most popular rigid heddle loom, the 15″ Cricket, transforming it into a 4-shaft loom with a 13-1/2″ weaving width.
Thoughtful features make the 4-harness system a pleasure to use. 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. Like all Schacht products, the Cricket Quartet is manufactured in the USA.
