A small Rug woven on a circular Loom

1   Click the parts together to assemble the circular loom in the largest of the three possible sizes (88 cm).

2   Wrap the circular loom with warp threads from acrylic yarn around the grooves. Connect opposite grooves to each other so that the warp threads are double. NB: There are an odd number of warp threads on this circular loom.

3   Thread the needle with acrylic yarn and weave alternately over and under the warp threads. NB: Here we have woven the yarn doubled over, but it's up to you.

4   Use the comb to compress the woven section as you go along.

5   Cut the loom free and tie the warp threads in pairs (with one exception due to the odd number of warp threads).

6   Tassels: Cut 56 pieces of yarn each measuring 80 cm. Double each piece of yarn over twice to make a bundle of 4 x 20 cm threads.

7   Place the bundle in the middle of four tied-together warp threads. At each side, the ends of the bundle are pushed back and up through the gathered warp threads. This creates a loop through which all the ends of the bundle are pulled, forming a tassel.

8   Cut open the tassel.

9   Trim the warp threads.
