Loom Beading for Beginners

Your first loom bracelet took hours to weave. One mess of warp threads and a missing finishing method later, it came apart completely. Not a talent problem. A teachable problem. Most beginner guides walk you through the weaving, then leave you holding eight dangling warp threads with a vague sentence about knotting them off. That is not an edge case or a beginner error. That is the moment most first projects end up in a drawer instead of on a wrist. You deserved a proper explanation before you ever threaded the loom.
