How to use the 28″ McKinley Mirrix Tapestry Loom

To use the loom for weaving, position it upright with two-fold-out legs on a table or on the Mirrix Harvey Stand. You can also add the shedding device to this loom although it’s not required for every project. If you do plan to use the shedding device often, you’ll want to get some heddles.
