What can you weave on this loom? 

With the Mirrix Big Sister Tapestry & Bead Loom, you can weave beads and fibre. It's big enough to produce a decently large tapestry or bead weaving, but still small enough to be portable.

How to use the 16" Big Sister Mirrix Tapestry Loom

To use the loom for weaving, position it upright with two fold-out legs on a table or on the Mirrix Harvey Stand. You can also add the shedding device to this loom although it's not required for every project. If you do plan to use the shedding device often, you'll want to get someheddles.
