The Universal X Loom!!!



Universal X Loom

Designed by Scarlett Royale

The Loom Muse

Modified and Made by

CinDwood Looms

No other loom on the market like it!!!

 

Looking at this loom you may ask "What is so special about this loom?" Everything!!! It can increase and decrease in 4 directions allowing for a smoother shape in finishing hats, socks, and stuffed animals. It allows for a galore of different ways to shape garments. Suddenly loom knitting isn't the same any more. This loom will open a can of beautiful unicorns when designers start to get a hold of this loom!!

There has been a question about the opening in the middle on the prongs. That measurement is 3/4" for the 3/8" and 1/2" gauge and for the 5/8" gauge it is a full 1" space in the middle.

Now asking about specks on these looms...

What can you make with this style loom? Anything, and I mean anything. No peg limits any more. If you work a project up, and you need say 14 pegs you can set a wedge and prong up for 14 pegs. If you need say 98 pegs you can set all 4 of the wedges up for 98 pegs. This means you have unlimited ways of working with this loom. If you are on a budget and need to choose just one loom, this would be it.    

While this may seem pricey, if you are new to the Cindwood Loom Company they have all there bases made in house and they hand glue in every single peg. They are a fast growing small business that create high quality looms, and have great customer service. Most who get their hands on any of their looms are in love with the brand. This is well worth the money for the freedom and quality of this loom. Plus you support an American business not a corporate giant. 

You will be seeing more patterns in the future done on the x loom from me and other Cindwood loom designers. Just keep an eye out on their website and my ravelry store.
