Overview

The Laila loom is designed for weavers who do not have enough space for a very large loom or who want an additional loom for sampling or experimental projects. With a 70cm weaving width the Laila loom is suitable for weaving all types of fabric except heavy rugs. The Laila bench, which is especially proportioned for this loom is supplied with the loom unless otherwise requested by the customer. When not in use the back of the Laila folds up, even with a warp in place. This enables space saving storage against a wall.

Laila offers a true countermarch loom in a compact package and is available with 4 or 8 shafts. As with all Toika floor looms Laila arrives flat packed. Assembly is straight forward with bolts and barrel nuts used to fit the frame components together using the Allen key supplied.

Top of the Lamms Tie-Up

Countermarch looms like Laila can also be tied up in the less traditional way to allow changing of the tie up to be made from the lamms rather than the treadles. This reduces much of the crawling under the loom that is required on most floor looms. If you would like information on this method ask us when you order your loom.
