More challenging than weaving potholders, and less difficult than using other weaving tools, the Friendly Loom PegLoom is a great way for young students and very beginners to learn how to weave. The PegLoom is a 7" x 10" sturdy wooden frame, with slanted pegs attached on both sides so the weaving won't fall off. Children draw the wool yarn through the loom with a sturdy plastic needle, building fine motor skills and enjoyment in the fact that they are creating projects of their own. The size of the loom allows such projects as wall hangings, purses, coasters, blankets and rugs for dolls, and whatever else they can dream up. The set includes the PegLoom, cotton warp string, 100% wool yarns in red, purple, green and gold, plastic needle, and illustrated instructions.

Lap Looms are constructed of hardwood, and they are portable enough to take anywhere. Each loom kit contains a Lap Loom, 1 oz. of cotton warp string, 100% wool yarn, a tapestry needle, two shed sticks, a shuttle (one shuttle comes with Size A loom, and two shuttles come with Size B), and illustrated instructions. The instructions show the basics of weaving and explain how to weave and create pillows, purses, small rugs, wall hangings, tote bags and much more. A different color scheme of yarn comes with each loom - the "Fiesta" design with the Size A loom incorporates colors like purple, green, gold, orange and red, while the "Sierra" design that comes with Size B features black, white and red. Portable, hands-on, and plenty of room for creativity!
We also offer several additional Lap Loom products. If your children really get into weaving, check out the Wonder Wand. This handy wooden tool makes weaving easier and faster by speeding up the shed-making process. It's great for younger children too! Instructions are included. If you want another set of the same materials that came with your Lap Loom or want to try another design, we also offer refill sets. Each set will work with either size Lap Loom, and includes enough wool yarn for the project, cotton warp yarn, and illustrated instructions. We also offer 13" shed sticks individually in case you need a replacement.
