Handmade Woven Coasters

What if we told you that you could learn an entirely new craft, make something genuinely useful, AND leave with the tools and supplies to make at least eight handmade gifts?

Welcome to your new favorite tiny weaving obsession.

In this beginner-friendly workshop, we're learning the wonderfully satisfying art of weaving by making squishy, cozy, handmade coasters!

Using your very own Makeshift 3D-printed mini loom and weaving needle, you'll learn how to turn simple strands of cotton and wool yarn into beautiful little woven squares that are perfect for protecting your furniture, decorating your home, or gifting to literally everyone you know. 

And because we know how these things go, we're sending you home with enough yarn to make at least EIGHT coasters! 🤯

Make a matching set. Make one for every person coming to Thanksgiving dinner. The possibilities are endless.

🧶 The Vibe
Cozy. Repetitive. Ridiculously satisfying.

There's something incredibly relaxing about weaving yarn back and forth, watching a little piece of fabric slowly come together, and realizing that you're actually making fabric with your own two hands.

It's the perfect project for slowing down, chatting with friends, and keeping your hands busy without having to think too hard.

Also, Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and if your mother-in-law is coming to town and you need a wholesome activity that will keep her occupied for a few hours...

We have a loom with her name on it. 😂
