My search is over!!! I had to share my find with all you loomers.
I was in search for the Pick tool that came with my Mitten Flexiloom. I
had misplaced it and I really liked it as it was large enough to handle
well. It had a longer bendt tip for sliding down the peg. Most important
feature [for me] was a thicker rubber brip on the handle. This helped my
arthristist as I can not grip my fingers tight to the center of my palms to hold
on.[Kiss loom pick is over all smaller I guess designed for use of finer
weight yarns.]]

Has beautiful picks similar to the Flexiloom pick, but I have not tried it
yet and I feel it will be even better. It has an additional band of rubber
cushion in the handle top half and this does not seem to slide baqck and
forth as the Flexiloom hook did. The metal rod goes thru the cushion.
Cindy's picks are $2.99 each.
I also need to let everyone know that I ordered the 2 Premiee Hat/bootie
looms pairs from Cindy Wood Crafts. It was recommended to me to use the
set for mitten looms. I did get 1 set with the 3/4 peg spacing and 1 set
with the 1/2 " peg spacing. The 3/4 set was $12 for 10 Peg bootie/thumb
loom [plastic pegs with groove and thicker stopper on top of peg 10 Peg with
wooden base and anchor screw
20 Peg Hat/hand loo with 3/4" spacing and above description plus 1 Pick.
1/2" Preemie Hat/bootie loom was $14 for 1/2" spacing Bootie/thumb loom
15 Pegs with described construction above and Hat/hand loom with 30 Peg
-1/2" spacing and above construction plus 1 Fantastic pick.
I have invited Cindy to one of our Monday Night Chats in January date to be
announced.
Fast delivery and will report in on looms. I plan on giving one to my
Granddaughter and ordering a couple more for the middle Princesse and me.
