This book has clear instructions

"This book has clear instructions for getting started with the Knitters Loom. I am not super excited about most of the specific weaving projects included; there are a lot more free online patterns that I am more drawn to. However, there are a few good ones my daughter and I might try together."

The information here has helped me have a good approach to new projects and I've gotten a lot braver with my patterns and colors that I use in my projects. I would order this book if you feel stuck in weaving and need some advice on how to progress in the craft."
