Zoom Loom Yarn Explorations
In 2013, we collaborated with a number of yarn companies for TNNA's summer show. They contributed yarns; we wove them on the Zoom Loom.
These squares show how useful it can be to sample on the Zoom Loom. Solid colors, variegated yarns, and textured yarns show their unique qualities. Add a patterned weave, or full a square, to see more possibilities for any yarn.
