Ashford SampleIt Loom Reeds

Fancy weaving with some different thickness? You need a new reed for your loom!

These are replacement and additional reeds for the Ashford SampleIt Loom. Choose the same width as your loom, then select the DPI to suit your yarn.

The 10-inch (25cm) SampleIt uses its dedicated 25cm reed. The 16-inch (40cm) SampleIt uses Ashford’s standard 40cm reed, which also fits the same-width Rigid Heddle and Knitter’s Looms.

Choosing your reed

• 2.5dpi: glorious super-chunky yarns, fluffy handspun and bold texture
• 5dpi: chunky yarns and general handspun—this is often my own go-to reed
• 7.5dpi: a wonderfully versatile medium sett
• 10, 12.5 or 15dpi: progressively finer yarns and more delicate cloth

A second reed is a simple way to open the loom up to a completely different world of yarn: airy and sculptural one day, fine and drapey the next.
