just to show u its going slowly but its getting there and the more i do the better it looks, and i have added dowel rods to the side to help keep the side stright. dont know if this will work or not. That is part of the fun trying to see how i can make it work.

I made one of those but I used horse shoe nails. You take the rug off by slip stitch crocheting it off with a big hook. good luck It looks beautiful so far. :thumbup:

To take it off the loom, go to the corner, take off the corner one and one to the left or right of it (depends on whether you are left or right handed). Put on loop through the center loop and pull, keep doing this until you have all of the loops off. Your last loop you will have to use a piece of fabric to mingle it within the other part of the rug. Hope this helps.
