Shedding Device: Optional. Click here to learn more about the Mirrix shedding device to determine if a loom with one would be a good fit for your weaving needs. Note: If you purchase this loom with a shedding device that doesn’t mean the shedding device has to be used for every project. When warping you can choose to put the shedding device on the loom or not to.

If you plan on using the shedding device with this loom, you will want to buy or make heddles.
