Step 2: Set Up Your Loom

The next step is to set up your loom. Follow these instructions:

1. Attach the warping thread to the loom's top bar.
2. Secure the other end of the warping thread to the loom's bottom bar.
3. Wrap the warping thread around the loom's pegs, creating a weaving foundation.

Step 3: Prepare Your Weaving Thread

Now, let's prepare the weaving thread:

1. Measure the desired length of your weaving thread, considering the double wrap.
2. Thread your weaving tool with the desired thread color.
3. Tie one end of the thread to one of the loom's pegs.

Step 4: Start Weaving

It's time to start weaving your double wrap:

1. Pass the weaving tool over and under the warping threads, creating the first row.
2. Repeat this process until you complete the desired number of rows.

Step 5: Double Wrap

Here comes the exciting part - the double wrap:

1. After completing the first set of rows, choose a different colored thread for the double wrap.
2. Thread your weaving tool with the selected double wrap thread.
3. Pass the tool over and under the warping threads, just like in step 4, but this time inserting it between the previous rows.
4. Continue weaving using the double wrap thread, building on top of the first set of rows.

Step 6: Repeat and Finish

To achieve a well-balanced double wrap, repeat steps 5 and 6 until you reach your desired weave length. Make sure to maintain an even tension and adjust the weaving tool's positioning to ensure a consistent appearance throughout your weave.

Once you're satisfied with your progress, carefully remove the weave from the loom, cut the threads, and secure the ends to prevent unraveling. Congratulations - you've successfully completed a double wrap on your weave!
