Claim 4:
5. A method for forming a craft item comprising the steps of:
using a plurality of interconnected pentagonal woven fabric segments placed adjacent to one another,
each pentagonal woven fabric segment of said plurality of interconnected pentagonal woven fabric segments is formed by performing the steps of:
providing a single continuous yarn strand for forming said pentagonal woven fabric segment;
providing a pentagonal pattern loom comprising:
a loom frame;
a plurality of loom pins perpendicularly embedded into said loom frame and protruding at a predetermined distance for engaging and holding said single continuous yarn strand, said plurality of loom pins arranged in a pentagonal pattern forming a structure for engaging said single continuous yarn strand, said loom pins comprising a first pin, a second pin, a third pin, a fourth pin, and a fifth pin positioned at the edges of said pentagonal pattern with center pins therebetween, said first pin, said second pin, said third pin, and said fourth pin forming a hexagonal configuration, at least two of said center pins positioned between said first pin and said fifth pin and at least two of said center pins positioned between said fourth pin and said fifth pin, said hexagonal configuration having:
a first predetermined subset of said loom pins forming a top angled side of said hexagonal configuration;
a second predetermined subset of said loom pins forming a bottom angled side of said hexagonal configuration; and
a third predetermined subset of said loom pins forming two opposite straight sides of said hexagonal configuration, said two opposite straight sides connecting to said top angled side and said bottom angled side forming a loom pins spacing for said hexagonal configuration;
at least two of said center pins between said first pin and said fifth pin and at least two of said center pins between said fourth pin and said fifth pin forming a triangular configuration;

bias weaving using said single continuous yarn strand for forming a top woven triangle fabric section, a bottom woven triangle fabric section, and a middle section of parallel yarn strand portions of said single continuous yarn strand, said middle section forming a plurality of weaving warps for continuing to weave using said single continuous yarn strand;
a continuous weaving using said single continuous yarn strand as weft strands in said middle section of parallel yarn strand portions for forming a rectangular woven fabric section with remaining loom pins in said triangular configuration of said pentagonal pattern.
