Amanda and I both use this set. It is six looms and they are different sizes and shapes. The looms are plastic and have rather short pegs. The looms nest together and have a lid for great storage.
Here is what we like about them:
As you are working on a particular loom....it sets into a base that allows you to hold yarn or ribbon by having notches in the base. There is a center circle to allow for sewing up of the middle.
You can make a variety of lowers in shapes and sizes. You can also weave the pedals together to help use a flower say on a baby blanket or hat.
The one item we do not like...is the plastic and how short the pegs are. It does come with a curved needle and this is handy.
We also use the bloom loom which is plastic and has two rows of pegs in a circle. It also allows for very complex flowers.
Happy Flowering!
Theresa
