Full tutorial on how to warp and weave on the Louet Erica Table Loom! The loom comes with 2 harnesses, but can go up to 4. And idea beginner table loom!
This is always my "go to" video when I need to warp my Erica. I don't use my Erica very often so I always have to come back here for help. I think this is the easiest, most clear video out there on how to warp the Erica.
I've considered moving up to a table loom from a RHL but most of the warping videos left me feeling like it was too hard to warp. This video really explains it well without making it seem overwhelming. I now know I do want a table loom and am looking forward to working on it. Thanks.
thank you for such clear and concise directions. i have always been intimidated about using a warping board and multple harnesses., this makes me want to try the Erica!
Oh thank you for this, just ordered this loom. Am moving up from a Ashford knitters loom and had looked at everything and was feeling daunted but you've explained all so clearly. Much appreciated.😊
I used this video for warping my Ashford table loom that I added an over-castle raddle to and it worked out well. I still may pick up an Erica loom in the future, if workshops become a thing again. It looks like a nice loom. Thanks for the video.
Doesn’t look easy to put together , my friend just put it together - took her all day.. still want one. I took a class with you at VKL - you were a great teacher- so happy you did this video.
Thank you so much for this information. Just purchased a Louet Erica Table Loom from George Weil in England. No shuttles or treading tool was included in my said purchased. I called them up because Ashford Table Looms includes these tools. Was told they did not do that!! What do you think??
What can be done about the rear ratchet/brake? Unless the screw is tightened as tightly as possible, the brake will not hold in place. I noticed that the rear brake is diagonal, while the front brake is horizontal, like the Jane brakes. The horizontal brakes work perfectly, but the diagonal brake doesn't hold with tension (the warp).
The Jane is generally a more "polished" loom with a few extra features. - swinging overhead beater with rigid support on the top and bottom of the reed - a self loading spring to hold the beater back to give you a larger weaving area - the toggles have a positive lock position, so they are less likely to "accidentally" flip down - carrying handle on one side (Jane 40 & 50 only) - rubber feet on the side of the loom so it can be stored or set on its side without damaging the wood - the frame of the loom is solid beech vs a laminated beech - the loom frame for the Jane is simply more substantial and sturdy than the Erica - The carrying bag for the Jane is much more substantial - Erica bag being a cotton tote. - tieup bars and lease sticks for the Jane are wood The rollers where the cords travel on between toggles and harnesses are the same for both looms Hope that helps.

Thank you for the excellent demonstration!
Thank you. This is the best instructional video on warping a table loom I could find. ❤️
I am thinking of getting an Erica and this video is extremely helpful, with great filming, which is very clear. Than you so much!😊

excellent - Glad it was helpful
Thank you I need this like every time I put the warp I hope I can remember once….
Looks a lot more complicated than I expected, coming from a rigid heddle loom. I still want one. :)
So nice thank you ma'am
Doesn’t look easy to put together , my friend just put it together - took her all day.. still want one. I took a class with you at VKL - you were a great teacher- so happy you did this video.
There are a lot of pieces... but the good news is that you only need to assemble it once :)

Ohhh it folds!! I have a peacock loom, it’s small it’s cute but it doesn’t fold.

Good work demonstration essay to understand
Is the tension strong enough to weave tapestry on it?
How do you feel the Erica compares to the Jane (besides the obvious detail of Erica having 4 harnesses and the Jane having 8 harnesses) ? Thanks!
The Jane is generally a more "polished" loom with a few extra features.
- swinging overhead beater with rigid support on the top and bottom of the reed
- a self loading spring to hold the beater back to give you a larger weaving area
- the toggles have a positive lock position, so they are less likely to "accidentally" flip down
- carrying handle on one side (Jane 40 & 50 only)
- rubber feet on the side of the loom so it can be stored or set on its side without damaging the wood
- the frame of the loom is solid beech vs a laminated beech
- the loom frame for the Jane is simply more substantial and sturdy than the Erica
- The carrying bag for the Jane is much more substantial - Erica bag being a cotton tote.
- tieup bars and lease sticks for the Jane are wood
The rollers where the cords travel on between toggles and harnesses are the same for both looms
Hope that helps.

is this the 30 or 50 cm size
30cm
How did you get the reed to stay upright and still while you were sleying it? Thanks!
It is propped up on the cloth beam - just not visible on the video
Thanks! but I’m stumped. I rewatched the video 3xs and cannot find any clues as to how you did it. Could you provide details?
it looks complicated to me ;)
I always thought that shafts held groups of heddles and that harness held groups of shafts...
no, shafts and harnesses are really used interchangeably... funny, isn't it!
@@LouetWorldwide They are used interchgeably, but is it "correct"?
This is profit business or not
