Description
Learn to personalize pin-woven squares using your own yarn and weave combinations. Dive into that stash to come up with surprisingly beautiful colorways and textures.
Using a fine yarn to weave a square, add a variegated worsted-weight between the rows; your pattern will slowly emerge — as you follow the chart— in a square with one side the reverse of the other. The hardest part will be deciding which side you like best.
Learn the 3-to-1 weave. Using simple directions, weave a heart design into your square. Make an afghan with each square showing its heart and give it to someone special.
Perhaps weaving a tartan or a hounds-tooth pattern appeals to you. With the hounds-tooth square, learn to make a two-layer warp.
To top it all off, grab two very different variegated yarns and learn another variation on warping. The results will surprise you!
It is time to take your Pin Loom Weaving to the next level, and Linda will help you create blocks that are unique to you!
Special skills or knowledge needed to take this class:
Students must be able to weave a basic square on a 4-inch Pin Loom and to follow a simple chart.

Great class. Great teacher. Even if you only taken her intro class the day before, take this one too!! I’m glad I did. I am very grateful that these classes are recorded. I needed time to process the beginning pin loom weaving class before doing these techniques.
I learned several new patterns and I learned how to fix some mistakes I was making. Fun, informative class.Customer Reviews
The instructor's camera was enough out of focus that it was sometimes difficult to see the fine work needed in some places.
The houndstooth was a great piece! Thanks! The vertical X's remind me of Brook's Bouquet and my yarns played well together.
Thank you for your patience!
