Use the simple, portable inkle loom to weave narrow bands. Warped faced woven bands have dozens of applications, including straps, handles, trim, and material for constructing larger items. Make coordinating bands to go with your other creations! You will select a pattern in your choice of colors, warp the loom, and weave a band. We will work with plain weave patterns, which have lots of design possibilities, and focus on getting smooth edges and an even beat. Students may finish a short band in class or leave with the band in progress. A few looms are available to borrow. Please indicate whether you will need one with the drop down menu above.
