Rainbow Looms are elastic rubber band bracelets that are created on a plastic grid with notches, called a loom. This loom is approximately 2 x 8 inches. Using a crochet hook, hundreds of different patterns are created to make fun looking bracelets, rings and charms.

Beginner Rainbow Loom Patterns are fairly basic and a perfect way to indoctrinate younger children to this artform. If your child has never attempted to create a Rainbow Loom, it is strongly encouraged that they stick to the beginner patterns because there is a smaller amount of rubber bands needed and some of the looming techniques aren't too difficult.

Intermediate Rainbow Loom Patterns are wide-ranging. Some of these designs have a few more techniques to utilize than your garden-basic variety, but there are others that are classified in this category that prove to be quite challenging. Intermediate designs will usually require more rubber bands and take longer to make.

Expert Rainbow Loom Patterns are usually reserved for older loomers and should only be attempted by seasoned crafters, who seem to be bored with the Intermediate Patterns and are craving a good challenge. Supplies needed for these creations are much larger than the Intermediate patterns and some designs have been known to take weeks to complete.

The best part about this new hobby is that the children have this big sense of pride, after successfully completing the pattern. This is proving to be a win-win situation for everyone because the stores are happy that they continue to run out of the products, the parents are happy because their kids are doing something productive and the kids are happy because they are getting to show off their wares to their peers and actually help each other improve their skills.

The downside to this Rainbow Loom phenomenon is that the lack of supplies and slowdown of the assembly line will cause long lines and panic at the retail level.

The upside is that non-traditional retail outlets are carrying the products, which will create more locations that have it available.
