Nonograms on a loom
Off the loom
Every cloth you finish is sewn on here.
Twelve pictures, from a 5 by 5 heart to a 15 by 15 castle. Finished ones show their picture.
A pattern is hidden in the loom. The numbers tell you which cells to weave. Use them to work out every cell, and the pattern appears.
The numbers beside a row are the lengths of its woven runs, in order from left to right. Between runs there is always at least one bare cell. Every other cell in the row stays bare.
Columns work the same way, read from top to bottom.
You never have to guess. In a row of 5 with the number 4, the run can start at the first cell or the second. Either way it covers the middle three, so weave those now.
Each cell you place also counts toward its column, and that unlocks more cells. Work back and forth between rows and columns.
When you know a cell is empty, tie a knot (×) on it. Knots don't count toward anything. They're notes for you, so you stop second-guessing that cell.
When every number is met, the cloth comes off the loom and takes its dyes. Start with a 10-wide loom.
