Travel the world without leaving your loom with the Summer 2022 issue of Easy Weaving with Little Looms. In this vacation-themed issue you’ll find 18 projects inspired by or designed for travel. Bring the beach home and into your wardrobe with colorful seaside-inspired runners and towels. Get the kiddos in on the fun with a playful seahorse hooded toddler towel and stuffed whale that doubles as a throw pillow. Travel anywhere in style with an inkle- or tablet-woven lanyard, a sweet embroidered travel pillow, a handwoven passport cover, and of course shawls and scarves galore.

Also in this issue:

Take your tapestry to-go and design and weave with confidence while you do. Read all about the meet-and-separate technique and how to use it to build shapes, and learn how to add twining, dovetail joins, and half hitches into your cloth. Even better? These techniques aren’t just for tapestry, they work on rigid-heddle looms, too!

Turn your stash of inkle and tablet-woven bands into beautiful bags—and we’re not talking just the strap. Learn how you can turn them into fabric perfect for sewing into durable and distinctive bags.

In this issue’s Weaving With, we look at a tightly spun silk that not only weaves up beautifully on its own, but also pairs up perfectly with small bits of extra-special yarns.
