  • After finding out Ikea sells a weaving loom in their toy section, I knew I needed to put it to the test. The IKEA Lustigt loom comes at a much more affordable price than looms you may find on Amazon, so it makes it a great choice for beginners.
    I will walk you through unboxing and how to assemble the loom, string the warp, and three basic weaving techniques: plain weave, soumak weave and pile weave. I'll weave with regular yarn, chunky yarn and wool roving. Finally, I give a review of how I think this IKEA product works.
    Then this video is part of some Ikea hacks I'll be posting soon, so stay tuned!

    Gorgeous. Thanks for the instructions. My grandmother had a LARGE loom and I have always wanted to learn weaving. This looks like the perfect way to start.

    I'm so lucky to have bought this loom today for £4 at a Charity shop. I'm looking forward to starting some weaving.

    Alli, thank you so much for sharing this amazing video. I never ever imagined doing this thing in my life till I bought it from IKEA for my students to have a go with weaving. Your video saved our day as I was an absolute rookie. Thank you for the practical advise on how to do a footer and the use of a ruler, a dowel and using all kinds of yarn. God bless you dear. What a generous heart you have!

    Found this loom new in box at a second hand store for $10. Thanks for the tutorial! I had started it with the included thread... wondering now if I should scrap it and start over. The including gold thread does stretch, for sure.

    Hi, what are the paper spacers for, what is their purpose 🤔

    • @ActuallyAlli
      @ActuallyAlli  2 года назад +1

      Hi! The purpose is to give you some extra length on the warp strings to remove the weaving and then tie it off nicely at the end
