Are you a weaver in Europe looking for more comfort and speed? Then the Mirrix shedding device is just what you need. This clever tool not only makes weaving easier on your hands but also much more efficient.
You can easily purchase the shedding device and your Mirrix loom via the official EU distributor Weefweelde, with delivery to all EU countries.
What is a shedding device?
A shedding device automatically lifts and lowers groups of warp threads, creating an opening – a shed – through which you can easily pass your weft thread.
