LITTLE LOOMS SPRING 2024
Sophisticated Takes on Classic Techniques

Squares and rectangles make up many popular and timeless patterns in weaving; plaids, gingham, log cabin, and so many others are beloved by weavers worldwide.  Not only are they simple to weave on any loom, but they are also endlessly versatile. So, for this issue of Easy Weaving with Little Looms, we're exploring many ways weavers can highlight and celebrate the right angle in weaving. 

Some patterns draw from classic designs, including a chic plaid scarf, a pin-loom woven argyle purse, and patterned gamp towels inspired by spring blooms. Other weavers chose to explore the theme through different means, including a krokbragd runner in modern colors, a crammed-and-spaced scarf perfect for spring, and a Celtic knot inspired pin-loom blanket. This issue also features a special section of handwoven game boards, including an inkle-woven chessboard fit for a king. 

Long Thread Media serves content for the handspinning, handweaving, and traditional needlework communities online, in person, and in print. The company was founded by Linda Ligon, Anne Merrow, and John Bolton to publish Handwoven, PieceWork, and Spin Off, as well as offer information, education, and community to crafters in those fields. 

From the bottom of our hearts, thanks for being part of this new venture with us.

It seems like just yesterday that we set off on this new path and created a new home for  Handwoven , Spin Off , Little Looms , and  PieceWork —a woman-owned independent media company with a single-minded dedication to fiber arts.   It looked a little crazy to our families, but as weavers, spinners, knitters, and needlecrafters, we knew what readers and fiber artists were longing for: Clear technical information. Lovely projects. Perspectives from other fiber artisans. Magazines, websites, and videos that would delight and inspire you.   We invested in excellent contributors, switched to hi...
