What you Can Make
The Heartstring Pin Loom is simple, but surprisingly flexible. It works beautifully for:
- Small woven squares and patches
- Textured panels for garments
- Neckwarmers and cowls
- Decorative accents and visible mending
- Mindful, meditative making sessions
- Each piece is meant to be unique.
Helpful Tips
- Bulky-weight yarns or yarns held double are easiest to start with
- Non-stretchy yarns create more stable fabric
- Tension doesn’t need to be perfect—relax and enjoy the process
- Your first piece is a practice piece, and that’s part of the design
