Foamcore Looms 3 – Easy Weaving

The next step is to weave. I used a blunt end tapestry needle bought at a yarn store – 4 to a package. Cut a length of any yarn that you want to use, thread the needle and start weaving…

Over and under each thread on the loom…

On the next row, over the ones you went under last time, under the ones you went over and so on as you start to weave. Use your fingers, the needle or a simple kitchen fork to press the threads down into place.

Of course the cat has to get in on the act…wherever there’s yarn, there are my cats!!

So, just keep weaving, changing colors if you want until you are at the other end…

Finishing and ideas for finished weavings on my next post….stay tuned…
