Oh, Man this sounds so very cool. I would love to take such a class.

I have what is called an inkle loom. I bought it many years ago, and never did anything with it. I think I tried to use regular 4 ply yarn for the long strings you weave across, but it was too stretchy. I think you probably should use cotton or some other type of thread. I forgot which name those threads are.

Bernice and the adorable LOLO.

Henry,
That would be down on the Ponderosa.  No actually, you use a Hula Hoop.
Yes, I might teach this class if others are interested.

Good Morning Cindy Z, where would one find a wagon wheel for this Hula Hoop rug? It sounds quite interesting to me.
Might there be a class on this some day?
Good Morning Jamie, I havbe woven potholders as a kid. I believe that you can still find these looms in craft stores or on line.

I have done a hula hoop rug that is woven before.  You need an odd number of spokes and  then go over, under, over under.

Hi, I'm not sure this message went through when I asked it earlier, but does anybody here weave?  I''ve used weaving sticks, a potholder loom, and a small kids' loom that I'm not sure the name of it and the company is no longer in business.  I want to weave dish cloths, placemats, very small rugs, and such, and I have no sighted help.  I don't understand how some weaving looms I've heard about work, so I'm wondering what is the easiest loom to get for a totally blind beginner.  Thanks in advance and have a blessed day.
