	Loom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The earliest looms were probably vertical warp-weighted looms, with the warp threads suspended from a branch or piece of wood and weighted or attached to the ground.
		Looms used for weaving traditional tapestry are classified as haute lisse looms, where the weft is suspended vertically between two rolls, and the basse lisse looms, where the weft extends horizontally between the rolls.
		Originally, powered looms were shuttle-operated but in the early part of the 20th century the faster and more efficient shuttleless loom came into use.

	Bead weaving - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Although loomed pieces are typically rectangular, it is possible to increase and decrease to produce angular or curvy shapes.
		Bead looms vary in size and are typically made of wood or metal.
		Some looms have roller bars that allow the weaver to produce pieces that are longer than the loom is. Most looms are meant to sit on a table, but some have floor stands or are meant to sit in the lap.

	Loom
		Loom has been distributed to more than 80 universities and corporations, and is being used in numerous DARPA-sponsored projects in planning, software engineering and intelligent integration of information.
		Loom was applied to the domain of computer image understanding in the VEIL project, an experiment that links a Loom-based domain model with geometric objects produced by an image understanding program.
		The use of a Loom superstructure enables interaction with the image system at a higher-level of abstraction--discourse is at the level of domain concepts such as buildings, headquarters and events rather than pixels or cubes.

	LOOM - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		They were persecuted for these acts of "witchcraft", and purchased an island far off the mainland coast, which they called Loom, after the great loom that was the symbol of their Guild.
		Loom was originally published for DOS on floppy disk with EGA graphics and was later ported to the Amiga, Atari ST, Macintosh and TurboGrafx 16 systems.
		The great Loom on Loom Island is capable of echoing the last draft spun in its presence, with the sole exception of any drafts Bobbin spins himself, which can help the player commit the necessary notes to memory.

	loom - HighBeam Encyclopedia
		Modern looms are of two types, those with a shuttle (the part that carries the weft through the shed) and those without; the latter draw the weft from a stationary supply.
		Vertical looms, such as the Navajo and some tapestry looms, developed from the practice of hanging the warp beam from a tree and holding the yarns taut with stones, pegs, or a weighted pole.
		In the foot loom the harnesses were operated by treadles, leaving the hands free to pass and catch the shuttle.

	Modern History Sourcebook: William Radcliffe: Power Looms, 1828
		From 1789 to 1794, my chief business was the sale of muslin warps, sized and ready for the loom, (being the first who sold cotton twist in that state, chiefly to Mr Oldknow, the father of the muslin trade in our country.) Some warps I sent to Glasgow and Paisley.
		In weaving no great alteration had taken place during these 18 years, save the introduction of the fly-shuttle, a change in the woollen looms to fustians and calico, and the linen nearly gone, except the few fabrics in which there was a mixture of cotton.
		These families, up to the time I have been speaking of, whether as cottagers or small farmers, had supported themselves by the different occupations I have mentioned in spinning and manufacturing, as their progenitors from the earliest institutions of society had done before them.

	Smith College Museum of Ancient Inventions: The Warp-Weighted Loom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The warp-weighted loom uses a system of holding the warp threads parallel under tension by tying them in small bunches to weights made of stone, pottery or metal.
		Loom weights have been found in Catal Huyuk, an ancient city in Anatolia that dates to 7000 BCE, and use of the warp-weighted loom persists to the present day in part of Norway.
		The loom consists of two vertical uprights, a horizontal warp beam, a shed rod, a heddle rod, and weights.

	Loom-Shaped Slothing
		There is no cutting involved, except to separate the pieces after they have been removed from the loom and processed.
		Before dressing the loom, it is important to know the finished measurements of the assembled garment.
		Key points to consider for comfort are (1) generally a woven (at loom measurement) neck depth of 3" (7.62cm) is sufficient.

	Modern History Sourcebook: Richard Guest: The Steam Loom, 1823
		Before this invention the warp was dressed in the Loom in small portions as it unrolled from the beam, the Loom ceasing to work during the operation.
		In Steam Looms, the lathe gives a steady, certain blow, and when once regulated by the engineer, moves with the greatest precision from the beginning to the end of the piece.
		In the Steam Loom factories, the cotton is carded, roved, spun, and woven into cloth, and the same quantum of labour is now performed in one of these structures which formerly occupied the industry of an entire district.

	Leclerc Artisat Floor Loom
		Looms and accessories are guaranteed by Leclerc for one year covering defects in material and/or workmanship with parts replaced free of charge.
		Looms are made of selected, well-seasoned, kiln dried Canadian hard maple or birch, except for harness frames and a few parts that require lighter wood.
		The basic Artisat loom can be customized to fit the weavers application with a number of options including a Double Warp Beam to allow independent tensioning of two different yarn types, a Sectional Warp Beam to speed up the warping process and Texsolv or Inserted Eye heddles depending upon the weavers preference.

	Adventure Gamers : Loom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The world encompassing Loom is based upon a land in which a series of Guilds flourish, each highly specialised in their particular skill.
		The puzzles and challenges in Loom are logical and depend more on careful listening to decipher the four threads of each draft than lateral thinking.
		The voice acting was generally average, except for a disappointing performance by Richard Seyd, the voice behind Bobbin Threadbare, who created a whining and slightly pathetic figure, as opposed to an individual teetering on the brink of maturity, struggling bravely through his quest.

		All were curious to behold the new infant, a child born not of woman, but out of the loom itself and whose creation was unforeseen.
		It was decreed that the child be raised outside the ways of the guild until his coming of age seventeen years hence when his future would be decided by a high council.

	Loom - MobyGames
		What sets Loom apart from other adventure games (in direct comparison with Sierra's) is its unique interface: you do not carry items around, but rather manipulate existing items through the use of spells.
		Loom also features three difficultly levels, and differentiates them by changing the way the interface works: Standard features the distaff at the bottom of the screen but notes aren't written, whereas Expert doesn't have the distaff and you have to replay the spells by hearing alone.
		Loom is the epitome of LucasArts creative talent, and storytelling mastery.

	Beading on a Loom
		There is a brief description of John Lotter’s looms and his use of heddles and Kathy Dannerbeck and Donna Kaplan’s techniques of bead weaving for warp and weft on multiple shaft looms.

		Loom can be built from readily available materials.

	Jacquard Loom History - Invention of the Jacquard Loom
		Jacquard's loom mechanism is controlled by recorded patterns of holes in a string of cards, and allows, what is now known as, the Jacquard weaving of intricate patterns.
		The drawboy was to sit inside the loom and lift or move a number of threads according to the directions of the master weaver.
		His first invention was a loom for the weaving of nets, which he was led to make by reading in an English newspaper that a prize had been offered by the Society of Arts for such a machine.

		The first implementation of Loom focused on visualizing the mood or tone of messages.
