Left-handed weavers and those who do not rotate the loom may need to adapt some steps.  Supplies Needed Zoom Loom with 6" weaving needle 4 yards each of two contrasting colors of worsted-weight yarn for each square. Suggested yarns include my hand-dyed yarn sets and our Malabrigo yarn sets. Stronger contrast in colors will produce a more distinct pattern. Scissors Optional but helpful A second 6" weaving needle A small piece of masking tape or painter's tape Ability to print a letter-sized PDF pattern NOTE: This method can involve a LOT of counting rows and threads!
