Step 1
Figure out your pattern. You will always want to begin by finding out exactly what type of design you want to use. This will let you know how many times you should skip over or under the warp that is on your loom.
-
Step 2
Set the loom up correctly. If you are using a frame loom, you will only need to think about the patterns that you are using. With other looms, you can use pedals that attach to each of the sets of threads. Whenever you push on these pedals, it will naturally let the warp divide according to how many threads you want to skip.

Step 3
Start your pattern. All you will need to do is take the yarn for the weft and go through the yarn of the warp with the right pattern. For example, if you are doing two threads over and two threads under, you can follow this by taking the weft thread and following the pattern with the divided thread on the loom. For a frame loom, you will need two pull apart the two threads that go to the front, then put the weft thread two threads behind the warp so that it goes back and forth with the pattern that you are making.

Step 4
Check for an even pattern. You will want to make sure that you don't have a skipped thread in the warp or one that goes one under and one over, unless this is a part of your pattern.
