[Nfb-krafters-korner] Terrence and knitting looms

[Susan Roe]

Scarves are quite easy.  You Only use so many pegs and just go back and 
forth and then you just make it as long as you want.  You can use a single 
yarn on the smallest loom and then just make a long tube.  Then just stitch 
the tube closed and put on your fringe.  A single yarn won't make the two 
layers too bulky for a scarf.
