Margaret Stump
Margaret Stump has been a pin loom weaver ever since her mother brought home two small pin looms when she was 10 years old, which was a long time ago.
After extended explorations of rigid heddle and larger looms, she found herself drawn back to weaving in this tiny, portable format. Over the years, Margaret has woven a number of blankets and hangings that she is very proud of as well as too many scarves, boxes, pouches, soft sculptures and bags to count.
Following many years of creating projects for pin looms, Margaret was invited to write a book on the subject, Pin Loom Weaving; 40 Projects for Tiny Hand Looms. That was followed by two more books, Pin Loom Weaving To Go; 30 Projects for Portable Weaving, and Adorable Beasts; 30 Pin Loom Woven Animals & 4 Playscapes. In just the past few years, since the publication of her books, Margaret has contributed over forty-five creative projects to national magazines including Handwoven, Easy Weaving with Little Looms and Yarn AU.
Margaret most enjoys sharing her knowledge about this fun, portable form of weaving with others– introducing the idea that weavers, like knitters and spinners, can sit in a circle and create. She also shares lots of pin loom techniques and projects at her website, PinLoomWeaving.com.
