loom
A loom is a device used to weave cloth and tapestry. The basic purpose of any loom is to hold the warp threads under tension to facilitate the interweaving of the weft threads. The precise shape of the loom and its mechanics may vary, but the basic function is the same.
==Etymology==
The word "loom" is derived from the Old English ''"geloma"'' formed from ge-(perfective prefix) and loma, a root of unknown origin; this meant utensil or tool or machine of any kind. In 1404 it was used to mean a machine to enable weaving thread into cloth.〔(Etymology Online )〕 By 1838 it had gained the meaning of a machine for interlacing thread.
