The potholder loom, using cotton loops and a square loom, is a ubiquitous childhood craft item, but after making a couple of potholders for Grandma many kids lose interest in weaving. With a little patience, and perhaps some help from the whole family, multiple potholders can be crocheted together to make placemats, purses and even rugs. Colors, design, and patterns will explored during this family-friendly class. This is a great project for students of a very young age (6 and up) to experience both personal satisfaction by completing individual squares and the joy of being part of a family undertaking. Looms, loops, and other tools will be available through the instructor, or bring your own supplies.
