Schacht Cricket 15

A compact, considered start.

Five more inches in the reed than the Cricket 10 makes a meaningful difference to a project plan. It remains a different purchase from the 16-inch Ashford, with its own reed and stand sizes.

Where this loom belongs.

Choose it when your planned single-width warp is no wider than 15 inches, with enough room for the full frame and the weaving motion. If 15 inches is your desired finished width, make a sample and allow for draw-in and finishing before calling it a match.

What comes with it.

Schacht lists an 8-dent reed, two stick shuttles, threading hook, warping peg and clamps, apron bars and cords, plus two balls of yarn with the current Cricket. It uses unfinished maple and maple plywood. Schacht also calls for a warp separator. Seller bundles and used items can differ; reconcile the exact box contents before adding duplicates.

The accessory path.

Use a Schacht rigid-heddle reed at this weaving width and a matching-width Cricket stand. A different-width stand needs its documented conversion kit; similar wood construction is not fit evidence.

The Cricket 15 avoids the documented early Cricket 10 mounting distinction, but stand size and completeness still matter. Check whether a used stand has the mid brace introduced in spring 2024.

What we have not established.

We have not measured ease of assembly, weaving comfort, cloth quality or long-term durability. Our guidance connects published facts to a project decision; it is not a hands-on verdict.
