Loom Lines
Drag a thread over a warp to weave a target pattern before the loom's tension bar runs out of slack.
Drag from one peg to another to lay a single thread across the warp; each thread must match the target stripe color shown to score; successful threads cost slack which only partially replenishes between patterns.
One-thumb drag between adjacent pegs to lay thread, lift to release.
