Some hints on how to make a "pin loom" (like a Schacht "Zoom Loom" or "Weave It Loom", using photo frames made of plywood and small veneer pins - 20mm length. I used downloaded templates and re-sized them using Microsoft Word to fit the plywood frames. The looms I have made have been made so that they can use the patterns in pattern books specifically designed for the Zoom Loom and/or Weave-It looms. My pin looms were made very cheaply but required lots of concentration and patience and a few failures at first. You can use the pin loom to make a basic woven square in less than half an hour, which will be around 4" square and ready to use in your designs of choice.
