100 Pin Loom Squares

Now, weaving is as portable as knitting! Use up your stash and complete your projects in half the time. Make handbags, baby blankets, scarves or just some simple coasters to start out. Easy and fun to make, pin loom squares can be woven in minutes and require only small amounts of yarn. You can even weave them while on the move! Choose from a variety of looms available—one favorite is the Zoom Loom. An updated version of a classic pin loom, the Zoom Loom is thoughtfully designed with some smart details that make weaving a breeze, but there are others available or you can easily make your own by knocking some nails into a piece of wood.

One of the first instructional full-color books showing actual weaving patterns and color combinations, Florencia Campos Correa's 100 Pin Loom Squares is a sourcebook of over 100 colorful patterns for making different styles of squares. A techniques section covers the basics of weaving on the bias or straight and the various effects achieved by using different yarns. The additional fifteen projects for scarves, jewelry, pillows, and more then show you how to use them. All the yarn used in the book is easily available so you can replicate the colors and styles. Once you get started you will think of all kinds of ideas for using these adorable little squares!
