Stripe on a loom

While I am anxiously awaiting for the second part of African stripes I've asked my daughter to give me her beading loom to play for a bit. I am weaving a long thing stripe. The purple beads are almost finished. I am going to weave it until I run out of purple beads. I hope the stripe will turn out long enough.

  1. I have not seen this loom. What is the name of it. I would like to give it a try. You are just a never ending surprise. What are your plans for the long thin strip?

  2. This loom is not for gorwn-ups :) It's a Disney princesses loom. I've bought a complete loom kit on the local car-boot sale for a £1 or £2 a couple of years ago.

    I find it really comfortable for long designs and it's quite wide
