Leclerc's 4 Shaft Counterbalance "Fanny" model Looms have been a favorite of Handweavers for over 60 years. There are literally hundreds in operation throughout North America and around the world.

These looms are compact and solid. Due to the ease of treadle reach, the Fanny is favored by the average weaver for comfort over long weaving sessions. Leclerc's solid design allows weaving the full range of fabric including rugs.

All "Fanny II" model Looms incorporate Leclerc's exclusive Shed Regulator. This unique mechanism provides a quick simple switch from balanced to unbalanced weaves with a minimum of adjustment, providing the same versatility as a Jack Loom but with the advantage of full control over top and bottom Shed openings offered by the Counterbalance design. The Counterbalance Shed is wide and clean on every pick over the full range of 4 Shaft weaves including the higher tension Rug designs.

For the full range of 4 Shaft Fabrics, the "FANNY II" is the choice for price and performance.
