2nd Anniversary Giveaway Winners
THANK YOU for all the kind comments, and that you are sharing the excitement about the new “Little Looms 2019” magazine!

I think this 4th edition of the “Little Looms” magazine is the best so far: Seven pin loom projects contribute to a nicely balanced representation of little looms. Projects from shawls to bags to home decoration and more. Techniques from simple to intricate. Yarns that surprise in their effects. Beautiful photography, excellent instructions, and informative articles. I hope you’ll love it as much as I do!
But now, drum rolls for our winners:
On our blog: Susan P. from North Carolina
On Facebook: Alicia W. from Maryland
Congratulations! We will contact the winners and send out their “Little Looms 2019” copy as soon as it becomes available.
