Thank you Noreen – I think I can follow that! The amazing thing is, that many years ago I bought one of these little looms – a pink one – because I had absolutely no idea what it was or how to use it! I fell into tatting in the same way, when I bought my first shuttle.
I forgot all about this little pink loom until a couple of months ago when we were packing to move into a new house. I KnOW I put it safely in a box….somewhere…..sigh.

This is wonderful! – I’ve only just seen it. I’d like to ask how you stitched the squares together?

Hi K. Thompson
Isn’t it funny how you’ll be working away in your corner of the world, and someone a zillion miles away pops up with the same or similar concept!

That happened to me yesterday…. I had been sketching away at an idea, and checked a link to someone else’s blog because of something a reader said, and lo and behold! There was ‘my’ idea already fait accompli! That one went to the bottom of the list! LOL

When I was designing and weaving the bags for my upcoming book: The Woven Bag (which is not going to be released until 2010, sigh), my daughter in law came home from seeing a movie and said: Mum! one of your bags is in the movie!
She thought it was cool… I went ……… arghhhhhhhhhhhhh….
ah well….
LOL! Luckily, another great idea is just always ready to pop into our heads!

BTW, you can also use potholder looms for making Cluny knots. I did a video about that on YouTube.

That looks so amazing. You have an bottomless pit of imagination.

What a neat idea.
