[Nfb-krafters-korner] flexi loom

[Blindhands at aol.com]

I sorry I did not get back to you.  I had placed the orders for the  looms 
and never did get a notice regarding shipping price.  I did get the  looms 
and I am playing with them.  I have not gotten this down looming  yet.  I 
tend to need more practice with it.
 
I got a little frustrated with holes in the hat.  So I had to prove it  to 
myself.  I knitted a hat in 1 day for the 5 year old.  It had  ribbing and I 
did cables going around [6 cables]  I did 4 or 5 of the cable  rows over a 
total of 60 stitches.  Mind you I have not done a cable in the  last 14 
years since I went blind.  I finished the hat and sent it over to  my Mom's 
since she was sitting on the Princesses Saturday night for  supper.  I got the 
report that Gram did not know who the hat was for, but  MMakayla knew I was 
making it for her.  I heard after Gram gave it to her  she wore it in Gram's 
house until she went home with it on.  I guess she  liked it!  Now I am 
working on a different knitted one [basket weave design  for the youngest.  I 
heard the oldest thinks her hat is a little small and  she would like it 
longer so she has more room for all that ponytail.
 
I did the hats all out of the white and silver chucnky yarn Henry got me  
for the snowman.  I need get some more of it and try another hat on the  loom 
with it.

Hi  everyone,
I just bought the mitten and the hat looms. Plus a book. Has  anyone tried 
to 
scan the book with open book? And did you have any trubble  scanning the 
book?
I thought these looms would be a nice thing for me  to take with me to on 
the 
long trips to see my son, daughter in law and  grandson. I have a hard time 
sitting in a car and not doing anything. I  have plenty of bags that they 
might fight in and the yarn not get dog hair  or durty.

I was cutting denum quilt blocks yesterday and some how Ben  found out that 
our two dogs was playing with two of my quilt blocks.  Yuck...
Washed them off with soap and water to let dry.
Thought I got  rid of a quilt block stealing cat till I realized now we 
have 
to quilt  block snatching dogs. lol
I am hopeing the looms comes in before Friday so  I can take them to my 
doctors appointment. I have a spot on my upper thy  that will probbely have 
to be removed.

Hugs and all stay warm and  safe
CarolAnn
