Ambrosia Maple refers to a pattern found on the lumber, rather than to a specific species. Simply put, this is maple that has been attacked by the ambrosia beetle, which leaves its mark in the form of distinctive holes and long streaking rings throughout both the heartwood and the sapwood. There is no way to know if a tree will be ambrosia until it is cut down and cut to reveal the markings. The coloring, striations, and severity of the beetle attack can differ dramatically from piece to piece.
Our 2 Row Peg Loom is an absolute beauty! Featuring 2 rows of our largest peg sizes, this loom offers the great flexibility and portability for your larger project needs. The smaller pegs are perfect for chunky yarns ad locks while the larger is great for roving, locks, corespun, and fabric strips.

Each board is unique and different. Photos are the exact loom you would receive if you purchase this listing. This particular piece of Ambrosia was left outside for a considerable length of time, and the out surface underwent a great deal of weathering. We thought it was cool to leave that part of the board's history intact. 2.140.6
This loom features our NEW pegs! This style of pegs will be ongoing with all looms in the foreseeable future. ** We WILL have a video posted soon about the new pegs, and how we use them!
As a final touch in creation, we add mineral oil to oil each board, which brings out all of the natural beauty hidden in the board. If you ever feel the need to spruce up your board, mineral oil is an affordable and easily accessible option that works wonders!
