How to build an upcycled loom & stand from recycled stuff & weave on the pictur

This video tutorial is a celebration of upcycling and recycling. It shows how to build a loom from a picture frame and how to build a stand for the loom using heavy cardboard tubes thrown away by the fabric store, an old broomstick and a few nuts and bolts. It has ingenious ways of tensioning the warp strands, and opening the sheds for ease of weaving. All it all, it is a wonderfully functional loom and stand that is almost no cost. I designed it as part of an art installation for Earth Day, but to my delight, have found it to be a loom that I love and will be using for years.
