THESE BASIC STEPS ARE THE SAME NO MATTER WHICH BRACELET YOU’RE MAKING:
1. Making sure that the tab end is facing you, PLACE Bands around the Posts on the Loom, following the PLACE PATTERN for the bracelet
you’re making (figure 1).
2. ROTATE the Loom until the Notch end is facing you (figure 2); you will start PICKING the Bands from this end.
3. Following the PICK PATTERN for the bracelet you’re making, use the Hook to PICK up a Band through the “U” shaped channel of the Post
(figure 3). LOOP the Band onto another Post (figure 4). NOTE: It may help to use your fingers to hold down the other Bands while PICKING
and LOOPING.
4. Once PICKING and LOOPING is completed, refer to the “Finishing It Off” instructions below.
IMPORTANT TIPS:
1. Make sure that you PLACE the Bands on the Loom one at a time in the order shown in the PLACE PATTERN of your chosen bracelet.
