History of this loom:

• Special ordered from Sweden in the early 70s by a university prof in Nova Scotia 

• Sold to a woman in 1987 who used it to weave ‘a few things’, then moved to London,  Ontario, in 1990, leaving the loom in pieces in the basement for over 30 years

• Purchased by me in March 2021 & refurbished with some new parts & completely set up with Texsolv cords

• Since then, I have woven countless shawls, ruanas, blankets & rugs on this loom

☆Very good condition☆
