Synopsis

Designed to take you from simple makes to more ambitious woven pieces, this book offers over 100 patterns for potholder looms, including plain weave, shadow weave and twill. Many are newly charted for the small loom, complemented by established classics selected to round out the collection.

Guidance extends beyond patterns, with a chapter on adapting floor-loom drafts for the potholder loom, reverse engineering existing designs, and charting your own. Alongside introductions to additional weaving techniques, it also covers essentials such as sources, practical tips and clear advice for reading charts. Suitable for first-time weavers, using an 18-peg loom and yarn.
