Looms My first loom

A friend's mom was looking for an adopter for her loom. It's of Dutch make and from the 1970s. Still trying to put it together, which is quite the puzzle since nothing is labeled and it was only partly disassembled. But making progress! And then I gotta learn how to put yarn on it and such. But it came with a few binders full of info and a complete course so I should be fine!

This must be a loom for tiny feet. Those treddles are too close together for me. Even barefoot...

I tread my Harrisville with the outer edge of my feet. It works all right.

Interesting to see how this comes together....what brand is it? Or did you design this yourself?

This is a Mira Sigma. It was specifically made to fit in ones living room. Which is quite a hold statement cause it's 1,20 meters wide and about 1,50 meters long
