Loom Woven Baby Throw
Lion Brand® Martha Stewart CraftsTM/MC Extra Soft Wool Blend
GAUGE: One square = about 13 x 13 in. (33 x 33 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES: 1. Follow loom manual instructions on WEAVING for how to set up the warp, weave the weft, and remove weaving from the loom.
2. Throw is made from 4 woven squares, sewn together.

| Loom Woven Baby Throw Reviewed by Jan Bennett on 2011-10-28 |

I was so disappointed when I got this pattern and ordered the same kind/color of yarn.
The gerbera daisy is not this pink - it has an orange tone. The loom, which I have had and used for other projects, does not work well in this configuration with this yarn. The tool to pull the yarn does not cross the entire width of the loom so managing the weft became ridiculous. The instructions provided contradicted the instructions in the loom manual to which it referred me. All in all, a very frustrating experience even for a very experienced crafter!
