[Nfb-krafters-korner] Braille instructions on lion's brand website

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

Nancy;
Michael's sells thair  own braind of the kk looms, now.  Out of all the sets, I have bought, I have only found one broken peg.  I suspect it might have been from dropping or a kid deliberately braking it.  It could even have happened at the factory, because I never found the broken off peg.

These new looms are the same size as the kk looms, but the pegs do not come out, super!

I Can't remember names of looms I have purchased; however, both were plastic and had a broken peg when I received them.  Very frustrating.  I have not used a nifty knitter loom but want to purchase one if pegs are less likely to break.  Other than buying through Amazon, is there another place one can purchase them?

Thanks.

Bran,

Oh, simply because I like my knifty knitter and I've heard that the MS looms are plastic and the pegs break.  But to be fair, I have also heard that those looms allow you to work with two different gauges which is a nice thing.
I'd thought about getting one, just so I would have all those patterns to choose from for looming. Funny how sometimes a person starts with one thing and gets a kind of loyalty going and doesn't want to switch, huh?
