Something about recycled barn wood just makes me want to breathe in the history. There is a patina that can't be faked or recreated, only time will tell. Most of the reclaimed barnwood that we find in our region is white oak, though occasionally we find beauties in other species as well. White oak is one of our favorites to work with, often with gorgeous grain patterns, but always with a strong sturdy presence that is unmatched in durability.
PLEASE NOTE The designation "Red Oak" may or may not mean that the board has a red cast to it. The terms "Red Oak" and "White Oak" actually refer to a variety of different oak species. [Fun fact - "black oak trees" fall into the "red oak" category!] While some of the Red Oak species do, in fact, have a red cast, this is not a hard rule in this genus. The biggest difference is that red oak is often lighter in weight than white oak. If you would prefer a loom with a reddish cast, please specify that at check out and we will accommodate as our supply allows. If you want a board with a true red color, please consider purchasing a cherry, locust, or padauk loom.
Our Goldilocks Peg Loom is an absolute beauty! Featuring three rows of pegs, it offers the ultimate flexibility for all your project needs. The first row is perfect for lighter weft such as yarn, the middle row (which is the standard size on The OG) is ideal for roving and locks, and the last row is designed for heavier weft like corespun.
