Questions & Answers
I'm not sure why, but I believe it's because of the colors. Fall colors are more intense at that time of year, and the same is true for Christmas colors and pastels in the spring.
They stretch to fit the loom, but not in the same way that elastic is stretchy. They do not return to their original shape as elastic does. I could guess whether they would work if you told me what you wanted to do with them. As an example, I don't think they'd be useful for making masks. To keep them on, you'd need the ideal distance between the mask and your ears. It's unfortunate that that's the first thought that comes to mind.
The yellow isn't pale, but it's definitely yellow. It's a lovely yellow, in my opinion. It goes well with the other colors' other shades.
Chocolate brown is one of my favorite shades. Try it in red, blue, or any other color you like; it's a rich color in my opinion. It also conceals dirt.
Selected User Reviews For Friendly Loom Potholder Cotton Loops 7" Traditional Size Loops Make 2 Potholders, Weaving Crafts for Kids and Adults-White by Harrisville Designs
These loops are one of our favorites. At the age of seven, my daughter began weaving with a box store loom and synthetic loops and quickly became addicted. But, because those potholders melted when they came into contact with hot objects, we went to Amazon and found these. We've had two bags of bright mix, as well as individual bags of red, green, and white; the mixed bags have a lot of colors, but not necessarily in equal amounts, as stated in the description; the individual bags have a lot of colors, but not necessarily in equal amounts, as stated in the description. Individual colors are my preferred method of purchase, but color prices vary on Amazon; however, each color is $7 on the Harrisville website. For some of the colors listed here, $50 is a much better deal than $10 plus. This is an excellent item for getting your children away from their tablets and practicing fine motor skills. My daughter is nine years old and is capable of handling all of her responsibilities independently. She enjoys making these as gifts for her friends and family.
I placed four separate orders for each of the four colors. Tomorrow is Orange's arrival date. The three I got today are as follows. I noticed that there was no large insert, only a small white sticky tag, and that it was much smaller than I expected, and that it didn't appear to be enough to make two pot holders. I counted and found that there are enough scraps to make one potholder and four more. It would be great if we could get another 36 potholders.
I had no idea these loops were available in a variety of colors. br> I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at Amazon. These are by far the most effective loops I've ever encountered. They're of excellent quality and fit my metal looms perfectly.
The 'white' loops I bought for my daughter were more of a muddy beige than white, and despite being a Prime eligible item, I couldn't return it because I didn't get what was advertised.
There have been instances where loops have gone missing. I've never had a bag with anything extra in it.
Harrisville loops are bright, won't ravel easily, and make lovely potholders!.
This is an excellent educational toy, and I appreciate the fact that it teaches a skill (as well as patience!). ), improves dexterity, and offers an alternative to watching television! br>br>My only criticism is that the loops are of poor quality. They're a little "unraveled," which isn't a problem until you're ready to finish the potholder's edges. The loops won't stay on the loom (when finishing the third and fourth sides), so I have to reconstruct the weave pattern for the rest of the project. br>br>However, I enjoy the sense of accomplishment and pride my children get from this craft, so I would recommend it to your children!.
They are a consistent size, so every loop fits on the loom (unlike when I was a kid), but they appear to be overpriced for what they are. I could get a lot of t-shirts for that price. Shirts from the thrift store, sewn together with a small seam and cut into loops They'd work just as well for children's looms, and they'd be a fraction of the price.
