First Creation! 🐬
For my first Free Inquiry creation, I made a little dolphin!
Here’s a glimpse at the first step: creating the fins of the dolphin. This is what they look like on the loom before looping all the bands together.
Here are the two pectoral fins and one dorsal fin looped together and off the loom, ready to attach to the body of the dolphin.
The body of the dolphin all laid out on the loom! This was quite a long and complicated process.
Here is the finished product!
This project took me around an hour to complete, as there were a few mishaps. When I was attaching the dorsal fin onto the loom, it came apart and I had to remake it over top of the body bands that had yet to be looped securely. I had to be extremely careful! The whole dolphin almost came apart at the end as my knot band was not tight enough. Luckily, I saved it before it slipped. To make this, I followed a tutorial on YouTube. The whole time, I was wondering how someone comes up with the pattern to make something like this! I want to look into how that process is done, so stay on the lookout for that!
