How to make it

  1. Cut PVC pipes to equal lengths using a saw.
  2. Connect the pipes with PVC elbow joints to form a square frame.
  3. Tie one end of the yarn to the frame.
  4. Wrap the yarn vertically around the frame to create the warp threads.
  5. Begin weaving thicker yarn horizontally through the vertical threads using an over-under pattern.
  6. Use a comb to push the woven yarn tightly together.
  7. Continue weaving until the desired amount of fabric is created.
