I agree with Lisa Marie It does not have to be an even number.  It  will 
even itself in half.

On a  31 peg loom, when you stitch it closed, there is an extra stitch.  We 
are  talking about how to handle that stitch.
I am just used to wide  scarves.

I'm confused.  Isn't a tube scarf a scarf that is tubular in shape? Why 
would a 31 peg matter  if you just keep wrapping around and around?

I've made tube scarves on  a 24 peg loom and I think that since they are 
double the thickness the width  isn't too bad. I kind of like the width on a 
24 pegger.
