Darning Loom

My sister gave me this darning Loom for me to have fun with. It’s similar to the one that I have, but the long metal piece with the hook on the end is quite a mystery. It is called a loom pick tool. But that’s as far as I got on YouTube and the internet. Why is the metal sticking out near the middle? The needle is nice and long. It’s very handy as I don’t have one anywhere near as long as that one. Between readers of my blog and folks at the Needlework and Textile Guild of Media, I am sure I’ll get some help. I think the loom brand is Quirzx Darning Loom Speedweve Type Weave Tool.

Look on Amazon (of course) I saw this recently where it was used to weave a scarf on a piece of needlepoint so it was hanging over. Amazon shows how you can attach items using this to your jeans, shirts etc. and you can repair holes but colorfully. I gives a picture to see it “in action”

I found it for sale, but I need a video or explanation on how to use the tool.

I just sent you a video – it was pretty comprehensive and easy to understand
