Description
Who is the McKinley loom for?
The McKinley loom is ideal for weavers who want to create large tapestry or wall-hanging projects.
Thanks to its unique proportions, you can weave both wider and longer pieces than on most table looms.
➡️ Prefer a more compact setup? Check out the Deb loom (40 cm wide).
➡️ Or go all-in with the Joni loom for the same height but an even wider weaving area.
What makes the McKinley loom special?
- Double top and bottom beams for extra strength
- Weaving width of 63.5 cm: spacious enough for larger tapestry projects
- Weaving length up to 150 cm with continuous warp
- Perfect tension thanks to the Mirrix system
- Can be used on a table or with the Mirrix Harvey stand
In short: the McKinley is a professional loom that combines strength and finesse.

Standard or extended shedding device?
The shedding device helps you lift alternate warp threads to the front, creating the shed, that’s the opening through which you pass the weft yarn. It allows you to weave faster and more ergonomically.
| Usage situation | Best choice | Advantage |
| Shorter or smaller weavings | Standard shedding device | Compact and lightweight, ideal for table use |
| Longer weavings | Extended shedding device | More workspace and better tension stability |
