DESCRIPTION
This Backstrap Loom is based on the Peruvian backstrap loom used for centuries to make the colorful woven sashes, straps and bands that are so distinctive in Peru. Using the same methods, it’s easy and fun to weave unique, beautiful bands useful in a variety of ways, from pretty belts to carrying straps or woven dollhouse blankets or rugs to even pretty wall hangings.
Looms help children develop finger dexterity, hand muscles, and problem-solving skills, not to mention the pride they feel once they’ve accomplished a project. This loom was designed for children ages 9 years and older.
Make Belts, Sashes, Straps for Your Guitar, Roller Blades, Camera and Much More! For a demonstration video of how to use the Backstrap loom,
