[Nfb-krafters-korner] Braille - reading faster

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

I have the flower loom, but I think it is to big.  I have not seen the nifty knitter class, yet.  I sure hope it does not conflict with my craft show or state convention.

Terry, there is a tool, I think it is called a knitting spool, that works like a nifty nitter.  They can be as small as a spool from thread or almost as large as a pop can.  They have between 3 and 6 pegs on the top with a hole going down the center.  You wrap the yarn around the pegs the same way you do with the nifty knitter but since it has so few pegs it makes a knitted cord.  
The larger ones can be made into rugs.

Carol
