Foamcore Looms 2 – Easy Weaving

The foamcore looms are easy to make and inexpensive. I bought a piece of foamcore board for about $3 and it made over 10 little looms. It is great for projects for groups, for children, for demonstrations, and so on….

Front…

Back…

The loom can be cut to any size depending on what you want to weave. Slits are cut along the top at evenly spaced intervals. These looms (shown) are threaded with a black cotton yarn. I have started in the middle of the back and looped the yarn around, securing it in the slots, and then finished by tying it in the middle of the back. The weaving is done on the front of the loom – using a tapestry needle.
