[Nfb-krafters-korner] knitting loom stitches.

[Tanya Wheatley]

Hi Bran,

To make flat panels on the circular looms, you simply do not connect the 
last stitch and the first one. For example, if you are using the 41 peg 
loom, you wrap from peg 1 to peg 41 and then knit off. You then wrap peg 41 
and go back in the opposite direction to peg 1 and continue to do this until 
the piece is as big as you want it to be. If you are afraid you might get 
confused, yu can always wrap to peg 40 and leave one peg empty so you will 
know where you are supposed to turn at. Keep in mind that the looms such as 
the Knifty Knitter and In The Attic looms really aren't big enough to do a 
blanket without sewing panels together. And also keep in mind that just 
using the e-wrap stitch will cause the edges of your piece to curl.

Maybe I need to see if Joyce will let us schedule another chat about 
different stitches so you can learn a few new stitches.

Tanya

How do you make baby blankets on something that makes circular pieces? I
make the hats, but would love to make other things.
