Book Review of Novelty Weaving Patterns Jiffy-Loom

Novelty Weaving Patterns Jiffy-Loom
reviewed on + 86 more book reviews


I bought this retro little book to get ideas to use with a pot holder loom and loops like sold by Harrisville at http://www.harrisville.com/loops/ but the little looms sold by Martha Stewart would probably work better.

It shows how to make interesting bullseye, zigzag, or diagonal striped patterns by using tweed for some of the stitches. The patterns are for using yarn with the potholder loom, so you have to extrapolate if you want to use it with the loops. A real vintage Jiffy loom has 24 pegs instead of the usual 18 that potholder looms have, so you'd have to take that into account also.
