Ashford Wavy Stick Shuttles – 3 Sizes
Create wonderfully lively, rippling lines in your weaving by using this shuttle to beat the weft into place. Each side has a different wave, so a small change of direction can produce a fresh rhythm across the cloth.
The smooth lacquered hardwood slips comfortably through the shed and can be used with any Ashford loom. I love these for experimental weaving: alternate the two edges, change colour between rows or combine the waves with areas of ordinary plain weave and watch the surface begin to dance.
- Small: 40cm / 16in
- Medium: 50cm / 20in
- Large: 70cm / 28in
Choose a length that is comfortable for the width of your weaving. This is a shaped shuttle and beater for decorative effects rather than a substitute for a rigid heddle reed.
