I love Gist weaving patterns! I’ve downloaded many and each pattern is very detailed and easy to follow. This was my first time using “looping”, and it has inspired me to try the technique weaving a monogrammed pillow top. Gist patterns give me the confidence to try new techniques thus expanding my weaving knowledge.

I loved this pattern! I made it as a blanket for my daughter with merino wool and different colors of Malabrigo Rios for the squares. The pattern was easy to follow and to adjust.

Great Design
I downloaded the pattern while I was traveling and haven’t had a chance to actually weave it yet. The instructions seem very clear and the design is lovely.
