Tape Loom Wrist Band

Finally finished my wrist band. Now all I need is the hooks.

Reverse side

I used very thin cotton thread. I had seen bands woven out of fine threads at my visits to the Vesterheim Museum in Iowa and wanted to do a project very fine.  This one was pretty quick and simple compared to the ones I have seen from old time Norwegians.  It was fun to accomplish.

The museum has a wonderful collection of old bands. If you can't go there, look at these bands on-line...
