[Nfb-krafters-korner] Looming question?

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

You can use an oval loom to make a round hat or for a flat item, that just is not closed.  I all depends on the size.  My Martha Stewart can make U shaped, small round, oval, almost any shape you can make with flat and curved pieces.
An oval will become a circle when taken off the loom.

What would you use an oval loom for?  
 
I am browsing around over on Cindy Wood Crafts and noticed that they have round and oval looms.  So I know they have the other types, but what do you use an oval loom to make?
 
I also noticed that they have available on the sight for $5 the thumb loom which is 10 pegs with a 1/2" spacing.
 
I am working on a Cindy's loom right now doing a pair of mittens to test it  out.  I am using the Preemie  hat loom 22 Pegs with 3/4 " spacing. [on the website it did say 20 peg with 3/4"spacing that I was suppose to get], but 
 things seem to be coming out OK.    I am using worstered weight  yarn   
double  strand.  
 
I have a plan regarding looming so need to get into thisand get things moving to before I present my thoughts.
