The children are coming home from

II is the great moment in the lives

HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE
LOOM FOR WEAVING BAGS

Today | am going TO tell you how to
make simple loom on which you can
weave bngs, small table runners and
foot-stool covers.
This loom is made Of ON oblong piece
of stiff cardboard--so stiff that it will
not bend. TO make bag, cut this
piece Of cardboard the exact width you
want the bag TO he when finished. and
just twice rs long with two additional
inches in the length Use a sharp knife
against n rulers edge, in cutting it.,
rather than scissors.
Now that you have an oblong strip
Of cardboard, the next step is To rule

edge Of either end, parallel TO the
edge. Holes arc punched along these
two lines onc-cighth Of IN inch apart

Now You must run linen threads fat
against one side OF the cardboard,
from end to end, fastening this linen
warp" thread as follows:
How TO warp" the Cardboard Loom:
Take two large needles, and thread each
Of them with black shoe-b button thread
(this i9 pulled out later, so its color
