Joyce,
Not exactly sure what you are saying or asking but let me try to answer this. It does not matter what YOU call peg one and peg 24 as long as YOU go the same way each time. I call peg one the peg on the right of my anchor peg and work around in a counter clockwise fashion. Remember, the yarn that connects from peg to peg should be lying on the inside of the loom if you are doing your e-wrap correctly.
Cindy Z.

Yes, I am using an E wrap. It is crossing over toward the middle of the
loom and has the single wrap on the outside.
I am confused on which number the pegs are, so can someone tell me to begin
to the left or the right of the anchor peg that you first wrap end of yarn
around. Then do you pull off going in a right or left direction???
Kathy, I am going to give the one wrap at a time a try, but seems like that
is a lot of hand motion. I will practice. Just wanted something simple
and fast to work on and thought this might be a nice change.

Ok I really need some help here with this knifty knitter thing. I tried
making a hat on a larger flexi loom. It went along OK, but help, help,
help. In the area of the beginning of the round I obviously am not doing
something correctly. I keep dropping stitches or something. Like maybe
I
am
pulling them off in the wrong direction or losing the twist. Of course
the
oldest Princess wanted to know if I finished the hat yet. I don't really
know how to wrip it back a row. I am hanging my head in shame as I just
took yarn and kinda stitched up the holes. A couple of spots you could
really feel what I did. She came over and I gave it to her and she said
it
was soft and it fit her perfect. I did take a good guess and it was not
too big or too small.
I wanted to do all of them a hat, but I started the next one on my round
knitting needles and throwing in cables. So they will have the white hat
with the silver or what Henry got me, but I was hoping they would be kinda
the same in different sizes. With ribbing and cables that goes out the
window.
I needed something I knew I could do, but I have not done cables since I
went blind, so a challenge.
Henry, how do you do this? I used the 31 peg hat loom. I was going to
use
the 36 peg, but that seemed so big.
Help, Help, Help from you knifty knitters!!!
