To begin using a simple loom, tie the yarn to the bottom rung, and wrap around the frame, with approximately a half-inch space between each wrap. Wrap from front to back on the top frame and from back to front on the bottom frame. Wrap the yarn between the notches on the shuttle, leaving enough room for the shuttle to pass through the shed. Twine the yarn on the shuttle over and under the thread on the frame. Using a wide-tooth comb, push the yard down on each pass. Continue on in this fashion. Finish off by cutting the yarn at the top and bottom of the frame. Tie the yarn into fringe for a clean, finished look, and to secure the thread.
