[Nfb-krafters-korner] FW: loom gauges and knitting needle equivalents

[Lisamaria Martinez]

Great info to have indeed.

So, what are the gauges for the old, well now old, round KK looms?
I've got the the KK 12, 24, 31, 36, and 41 peg looms. They all look
similar in gauge except for the 31. Anyone know the gauges?
