Hi,
I purchased mine from Walmart just this last week.
Hope this helps, and have a great week!

In Christ, Miranda

They are still being made, but you can't purchase from there site anymore. I
called today trying to figure out why my clip won't go on the end, and that
is what the hold message said. It is also all over the site that you can't
purchase from them, but find a retailer near you. Wal-Mart still had a large
selection also.

Nancy, it is my understanding that Knifty Knitter is no longer making their
looms, but you can find the same types of looms at any craft store like
Michaels, Hobby Lobby, JoAnns and also Walmart. The round looms generally
come in a pack of 4, each a different size.
You do need to inpect them when you get them, I bought my daughter one and
had to return it due to broken pegs.
The looms I have are actually Boye brand of looms and are not the same color
as the knifty knitters were, but I believe the number of pegs is the same.
Hope that helps,
Barb
