Neva,

Row upon row does have patterns, it's the book I had during the 80's, then lost during a move in 90. so tell me about the two books you purchased? did they have patterns for the KK loom, or were they more general patterns. Did you like the books? If so, which one, or did you like both. I am not familiar with the .brf format, so I doubt I can access that type of file. Do they offer it in other formats?  
I have a phone number and plan to call them next week, but any info you can give me would be helpful.

Thanks, Cathy

I purchased the first and last of these three books from the Braille Library and Transcription Services Inc. in electronic format. You can also borrow books from this resource if you don't want to purchase them. I got them in brf format and will be able to read them on my note taker. Not all their books are available in electronic format, so I am going to borrow the braille copy of Row by row which is a latch hook manual. I am hoping it has patterns. I am also going to inquire about having latch hook  patterns transcribed.

Hi all,

 

I found the following loom knitting books at the Braille books and transcribing services website, if anyone is interested in looming books in Braille.

I know I am!
