Hello student,

A loom is a device used to weave cloth and tapestry. The basic purpose of any loom is to hold the warp threads under tension to facilitate the interweaving of the weft threads.

A loom that is worked by hand is called a handloom.

Handloom is a simple machine used for weaving. Handloom working is by stretching out one set of threads, the “warp”, parallel on the loom. Using a needle, a hook, or just deft fingers, you interlace the weft through the warp threads, again and again, back and forth.

Knitting involves making a fabric by interlocking loops with a single yarn (single thread) like braids in rows, using needles that are hooked. In knitting, a single yarn is used to make a fabric.

Hope this information helps you
