Step 2 (Tying) >> |
| To get started, tye your yarn around the start peg. Lace your yarn around peg "A", see photo to right. |  |
| Next, lace your yarn in a figure 8 pattern around the peg on the opposite side of the loom and back. Guide your yarn back behind the next two pegs, skipping over the first one. |  |
| Continue in the figure "8" skipping over one peg each time, until you reach the bottom of the loom. Lace your yarn in front of the bottom-left peg. At the star, turn your entire loom in a counter-clockwise direction, until the star is on top. |  |
| Lace your yarn in the same figure "8" pattern as you did above, skipping over a peg each time. When you get to the bottom, lace your yarn in front of the next peg and again turn the loom, so the star is once again on top. |  |

| Lace your yarn in the same figure "8" pattern as you did above, skipping over a peg each time. When you get to the bottom, lace your yarn in front of the next peg and again turn the loom, so the star is once again on top. |  |
| When you reach the bottom this time, you will be back where you started. You have completed your first layer. |  |
| The thickness of your potholder will be determined by the number of layers you weave. In this sample I was using a think, nylon blend yarn and completed seven layers. |  |
