A comprehensive guide to the frame loom, this book introduces the weaver to the basics of frame loom weaving and also more advanced techniques. Learn how to weave tapestries for wall hangings or handbags, lace for scarves and market bags, geometric shapes for alpacas and dolls, modules to sew together to make larger items, and so much more. Patterns for various weaves such as houndstooth and checkerboard are included, as well as instructions on how to adapt other weaves to the frame loom.
Photo-illustrated step-by-step instructions are given for all techniques and 20 unique projects from home decor items to pouches and bags, scarves and other wearables, stuffed toys, bookmarks, and more. Looms used in the book are 6-inch, 8-inch, and 10-inch sizes, but the instructions are adaptable to any size loom. Once you know the basics, you can use your woven modules to create whatever you imagine!
