Can you imagine a studio with multiple AVL's all being woven on at the same time?!Peg in South Carolinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886923838871937466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-537158321255176863.post-86054175703481767452008-11-18T19:59:00.000-08:002008-11-18T19:59:00.000-08:00I had to wear hearing protection when I wove on a ...I had to wear hearing protection when I wove on a Baby Wolf.

I've only used 2, one is an old handmade loom: very loud, and the other is a baby wolf: less loud comparatively, but still not what I'd like. I did look at a swedish loom someone was demonstrating on, with non-metal heddles and an overhead-mounted beater--it was so quiet! I've been wanting one of those ever since.<BR/><BR/>Glad to find your blog!Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563056661111626584noreply@blogger.com
