A Versatile, Reusable Loom Kit in Three Sizes - Available Gift-Bagged or Gift-Boxed
A self-contained weaving kit for making small square woven pieces in British wool. Includes a reusable FSC-certified birch frame loom, yarn, tapestry needle, and a full instruction booklet with links to TabbyandTweed’s blog tutorials. Available in three sizes and presented in a gift bag or gift box.
 
What You Can Make
Square frame looms are one of the most versatile small weaving tools available. The woven square you produce can be used as:
A coaster - the classic first project; firm, flat, and functional
A potholder - especially in wool, which is naturally heat-resistant
A mending patch - woven visible mending is a growing craft with a dedicated following
A greetings card insert - a handmade woven panel makes a card genuinely special
A wall art panel - finish with a rod and hang individually or group several together
A component for a larger project - join multiple squares into a scarf, bag, blanket, or cushion cover
The woven square shown in the product photos is an example of what you’ll make - it is not included in the kit.
 
Choosing Your Size
15cm × 15cm - ideal for coasters, greetings card inserts, small samples and appliqué patches. The quickest to complete.
18cm × 18cm - a good mid-size for potholders, larger decorative patches, and wall art. A popular first-project choice.
20cm × 20cm - the largest option. Suits wall art panels, substantial patches, and projects where a larger woven surface gives the best result.
 
What is in the Kit

Blog Tutorials Included
The instruction booklet includes links to TabbyandTweed’s weaving blog, which covers techniques that go beyond what fits in a printed leaflet - including hem stitch, finishing methods, and pattern variations. As one verified buyer noted: “Finally learned how to hem stitch thanks to the links to blog posts included in the information leaflets.”  There is also a link to a YouTube Video tutorial showing how to warp and weave on a small frame loom.
 
A Perfect Craft Gift
The kit is available in a coloured gift bag or a gift box - select at checkout. It makes a well-considered gift for anyone who enjoys making things with their hands - knitters, crocheters, sewers, or anyone new to weaving.
