PREMIUM Small Loom (Speedweve Replica) Darning tool with Local Hardwood
Based on the original Speedweve darning “machine”, we stock 3 sizes of this nifty darning loom tool!
*Please be aware of cheap, poor quality knock offs that are flooding the market from China at the moment. You can be sure that we only sell the highest quality available, and never cheap, unethical knock-offs from China.*
The darning disks on these looms have been hand-crafted from locally and sustainably (non-farmed) sourced hardwoods.
With a gorgeous smooth touch and fantastic shellac-polish finish, the disks make this fabulously functional tool a real pleasure to work with!
Every one is unique and so interesting with differences in grain.

Use the tool to mend holes in your knitwear or woven fabrics. Turn those moth hole woes into moth hole WOWS!
Just stretch the fabric over the tool, use the rubber bands to fix the fabric and loom in place, set up your warps and get weaving!
We have a great range of Sashiko threads which you can use for your darning/mending/embellishing (the variegated threads are amazing on these looms!), including these perfect little Garden Party Sets, Mini Collection Packs, or use some stash yarn!
And some gorgeous reclaimed cashmere threads too!
The machine doesn’t come with written instructions, but there are some great instruction videos on YouTube to get you going, which work so much better than written notes.
