Recently I wanted to bead loom two patterns of my random squares pattern generator and needed a bead loom for this.
I’ve completely forgotten about the tutorial that I presented for my other bead bracelet (well, the entries pile up :)) and simply wound my thread around a cardboard fruit dish and just started.
The advantage is that I have plenty of thread to weave in after cutting the threads on the back of the dish.
And if you don’t have a cardboard fruit dish I’m sure that you can use a box of chocolates, too ;-)
I didn’t need to make little notches with my cardboard fruit dish because it was rough enough, but with a box of chocolates I think it would be better, just as described in the tutorial.
And that’s it.
I haven’t woven in all threads and have no closure yet – I can’t decide.
It’s done with the random squares pattern 1 further below.
And here I began another one that I make with the random squares pattern 2 further below.
