weaving looms
Cloth-making apparatus
Weaving looms are machines that interlace threads to create fabric.
The loom holds vertical warp threads taut while a shuttle carries horizontal weft threads across them.
Looms range from simple handheld frames to massive industrial machines.
The technology is ancient but remains fundamental to textile production: She learned to use weaving looms at the craft center.
