Book excerpt: Rubber band jewelry is taking the world by storm! Everybody wants the colorful bracelets, necklaces, and rings that are so much fun to create on looms with rows of plastic pins. Whether it's called Rainbow Loom®, Wonder Loom, FunLoom, Cra-Z-Loom, or other names, the looms and their supplies create a shopping frenzy each time a new shipment arrives at stores. Rubber Band Loom Crafts includes full instructions and charts for placing and looping the bands on the loom pins for eight bracelet patterns: Single, Triple Single, Fishtail, Diamond, Double Rhombus, Butterfly Blossoms, Chain Mail, and Zippy Chain. Tips are given throughout for alternate color combinations and projects such as rings, necklaces, barrettes, and headbands.
