Add a little something (or somethings) extra to your weaving with the Fall 2022 issue of Easy Weaving with Little Looms. This issue proves that even the smallest of additions can make a huge difference to your final product. Add a bit more finesse to your weaving with projects including a scarf with pops of inlay, a runner with a new technique called catenpile, and scarf with a fresh take on Danish medallions. Learn how to do beautiful statement joins by making a pin-loom blanket with stunning crochet joins or a rigid-heddle shawl with decorative stitching. Add some extra oomph to your weaving with a rigid-heddle towel with matching inkle-woven hanging tab, a set of cute pin-loom llamas complete with pompoms on their hats, and a pillow with pin-loom-woven fringe.

Even the most advanced weaver can struggle with selvedges. Learn three tricks to getting cleaner selvedges on the rigid-heddle loom and see how they compare.

If you’ve been looking for a new way to embellish your handwovens with designs on the loom, you’ll love reading about catenpile, a new rigid-heddle technique. Jessica Lambert, creator of the technique, walks you through the ways she creates stunning raised designs in her weaving without a pick-up stick or supplemental weft.

See the design process behind a beautifully embellished bag complete with decorative darning, beaded kumihimo tassels, and two types of coordinating inkle bands, a flat one for decoration and a tubular one as the handle.
