Have you noticed that weavers tend to have favorite looms? The basic structure of weaving (over under repetition) is so common that it can be created on several different types of looms in countless ways. Many weavers find that they prefer specific styles of weaving and specific types of looms over others. There are many different options for lap looms, but here are three of my favorites.
There are many different types of frame looms that you can choose from. These portable weaving looms are great for weaving on the go.
I'm making a little lap throw with the weave it loom. It hasn't taken much time though I haven't really been diligent about working on it, but I do pick it up when I have a little time and this is the progress so far. There's about 75 squares. The yarn I'm using is mostly hand dyed and sock weight so the weave is a little loose. I'm not crazy about the yellow cast on the ivory yarn but I ordered a huge skein of it online.

This design has been tested by my 9 year old and he greatly enjoyed learning how to use the loom as well as making guinea pig blankets. ------------------------------------------------------------- TIPS FOR BEGINNERS & KIDS ------------------------------------------------------------- For those just getting started start off with the smaller travel loom, that way they get to see the results of their effort sooner and are more likely to feel accomplished. It also requires less yarn in case something goes amiss and they want to start over. For smaller children I recommend using the plastic needle, shuttle and comb. If the shuttle is too confusing just the needle and comb. Spreader sticks are helpful but can be 1 too many tools to introduce right away. Check out Ravenkingcrafts.com for more weaving resources. The DIY weaver starter kit includes all you need to start your looming adventure. Weaving is both a fun and relaxing activity and is a popular DIY crafting activity.

This morning Bob and I left New Mexico and drove almost four hours to the little town of Van Horn, Texas. Van Horn is a town that has little to offer except a place to get off the road when you’re on the way to someplace else. We leave tomorrow morning for Fort Stockton, Texas. I wanted to share about my new loom that Bob made for me. On Ravelry, the inkle weaving group has been discussing Keel Looms, which are built using the plans found in the book “Small Looms in Action,” by Elizabeth Jensen. The “keel” refers to the way the loom’s base hangs down, allowing the weaver to hold it between their thighs to weave. Before we left Mesa I asked Bob to build me one, which he did. The book calls for 1/2” furniture grade plywood to be used, but Bob instead took scraps of wood in different varieties to build it, along with 3/8” dowels. Isn’t it sweet? I modified the plans to include a tension peg rather than use moveable dowel pegs to tension the warp. And it weaves very well! I am able to get almost a yard of finished inkle band from it. I’m going to have a lot of fun with this little loom.
