The link to the Kromski looms on the Wingham website is http://www.winghamwoolwork.co.uk/looms.htm. They're cheaper than the Ashford looms and the Ashford heddles can be used with them apparently. I like them for the price but also because, when you turn them upside down, you can insert some pegs and, hey presto!, a warping board! Very Happy

Very nice, let me know how you get on Very Happy

I am starting with a simple frame loom to get the idea before I try my ridgid heddle loom.
