Description
The 1.13+ loom block has been backported to 1.12! The loom block is useful for crafting banners and takes the tediousness out of using the crafting table.

To craft a loom, place two strings on top of two planks:

What Looms Ahead is also compatible with modded banner patterns so long as they are added to the Minecraft enum BannerPattern. They will show up in the main list unless the mod author calls BannerPatternUtils.addPatternExclusion() during preInit.
