FAQs:
Q: How do I choose the right dent size for my project?
A: Match the DPI (dents per inch) to the yarn weight and fabric density desired. Fewer dents for bulky yarns and rugs, higher dents for finer threads.
Q: Are these reeds compatible with non-Louet looms?
A: They are designed specifically for Louet looms, but they may be compatible with other looms if the dimensions match. Measure carefully before purchasing.
Q: What material is used to bind the dents?
A: Louet reeds use a durable hard resin to secure the stainless steel dents, ensuring longevity and structural stability.
Q: Do these reeds require maintenance?
A: Minimal maintenance is required. Simply wipe clean with a soft cloth and avoid storing in damp conditions.
