Harrisville Designs offers products for the weaving and knitting enthusiast, as well as our Friendly Loom line of educational toys for children. Our products are made here in our mills in Harrisville, New Hampshire.

We are a small family owned and operated business, and we believe that quality should not be compromised for even the smallest product. Harrisville Designs was started in 1971 as an effort to preserve and help re-establish the economic vitality of the historic 18th century textile village of Harrisville, New Hampshire. It is recognized as the only textile village of that era in America that survives in its original form.

There is a great tradition of textiles in our community and in our culture, and we are pleased to share that tradition of quality by designing and marketing our yarns and tools.

Color Ball Kit
The Classic Potholder Loom
Felting is the ancient craft of turning fluffy sheep’s wool into a durable fabric. By just adding soap, warm water and friction (rubbing, massaging, etc) to wool fleece,

colorful and useful felt pieces can be made. It is a fun, child-friendly arts and crafts medium that can be taken as far as your imagination will let you!

Felted Balls, Fun toys for children and pets: This is a quick and satisfying project to complete and it is one that allows room for individual creative touches.

Kit Contains:

  • 100% Wool Fleece, 3 Balls and instructions
  • Easy to make!
  • A great party activity!
  • Fun for juggling and tossing!

 
Make colorful potholders for your home, as gifts or to sell as a fund-raiser for your school, church or club.

There’s probably someone you know who made potholders on a loom like this when they were a child. It’s one of those wonderful old fashioned inventions still popular and useful today. It’s fun, and easy to do for all ages!

Our Potholder Loom is metal, not plastic! We’ve improved the peg design so the loops won’t slip off as easily while you weave.
