[Nfb-krafters-korner] Fwd: knifty knitter slipper pattern

Wed Mar 16 18:26:26 UTC 2011

The trick to this is you do not wrap the last/first peg when going back.  You have to skip one peg each row so your thread will wrap correctly.

Hi Terry, 
To turn on a flat item on a circular loom you simply start wrapping back.
