Friendly Loom Potholder Loom
Making potholders is a great introduction to weaving and a fun, relaxing, and creative activity too. The results are very useable, which we love! Both of these kits are designed to last many potholders, with sturdy metal looms and metal weaving hooks. The metal loom pegs slant outward to prevent loops from slipping off, which is especially helpful for young kids! The colorful loops included with each kit are 100% cotton and custom-sized to fit the loom, which is often not the case in less expensive kits. The instructions included offer instructions on starting and finishing potholders, along with design ideas and suggestions for additional projects using the basic potholder. The traditional kit includes enough cotton loops to make two potholders, while the deluxe kit includes enough cotton loops to make six potholders. A refill pack of cotton loops is also available, which holds a colorful assortment of the same quality loops, enough to make another two potholders.
