The Lure of the Loom
Fiber artists of all stripes will enjoy this fantastic website a Purl customer shared with us: Eloomination, a site devoted to palm-size looms for hand-weaving. Little looms enthusiast Jana Trent presents ideas, patterns, and a gallery of projects, as well as a history of this craft.
Trent even shares her collection of vintage patterns as free downloads, like these fabulous fashions from the 1930s.
You can make almost anything, from hats and scarves to tablecloths and blankets. We love the simple styling of the vintage patterns, and the exciting innovations of the contemporary projects.
You can weave with any fiber. Cotton or silk, wool or ribbon; you can create different textures and styles using different yarns. Weavette looms are a nice way to experiment with new color and texture combinations.
Purl has a variety of Weavette looms in different sizes and a Weavette book for inspiration, instructions, and stitch patterns. Thanks, Jana, for sharing your passion for weaving with us!
