pattern picker for plain, twill, and diamond bars
Plan patterns and experiment with color, design, and yarn thickness before even warping your loom.
How to use the pattern picker:
Choose a pattern (plain, twill, or diamond) by clicking on it.
Select a color from the pre-set options, or add your own by clicking on the large color panel.
To “weave” a row, click on one of the squares in the grid on the right-hand side. For example, to weave a row in position one, click on a square in column one. You can click anywhere in the right-hand grid to add a row and make your pattern. Remember that in real life, your weaving will start at the bottom.
You can change your yarn color at any time. You can also change the color of individual warp threads by clicking on any of the grey boxes across the top.
This tool allows you to explore patterns and plan designs. Choose a pattern bar by clicking an option below (plain weave is the default):
Using Colors: Click a preset color square to select it, or use the color picker to select your own.
Tip: When you adjust the color picker, it automatically updates the currently selected preset square!
Then click the top row (warp) or right column (weft) to apply the color.
Use the sliders to change the thickness of the warp and the weft.
