Weaving is twice as nice when you learn how to combine colors, fibers, weave structures, and design techniques to create projects that go beyond the ordinary. In this Easy Weaving with Little Looms issue, we’re celebrating projects that combine the best of both worlds. Weave up a set of coordinating rigid-heddle towels and potholders and finish them with inkle-woven bands. Then mix and match pin-loom shapes to weave an out-of-this-world star shawl or a cozy lap blanket. Build the perfect pin cushion using an inkle band and two pin-loom woven squares, and then finish it with simple embroidery. Feel inspired? There’s so much more waiting within the pages of the Fall 2023 issue!

Explore the basics of ice dyeing with Rebecca Fox and then weave a set of ice-dyed scarves using two different techniques to create the pattern. Learn how to find hidden designs in tablet weaving from John Mullarkey—without rethreading. Rosalie Neilson gives a brief history of kumihimo and then teaches you how to make your own set of kongō gumi braids. Also, in this issue, you’ll find an exclusive excerpt of Emily Nicolaides’s book Amazing Circular Weaving including instructions for her Swirly Twirl Coasters.
