Valerie,
Yes any would be fine as long as they were round and of the large gauge
kind.  I noticed by searching that you can get authentic knitting boards,
but they are  a small gauge and harder to work with when first learning.
You could try 
www.hobbylobby.com
I noticed that on a facebook group I belong to a person from Austrailia
ordered from them.  I looked at the shipping and it appears for
international shipping you must call to place an order instead of ordering
online from the store.  There was a mention of lower shipping costs if your
package was sent to a  us destination like a freight forwarder.  I not sure
what that means but you could ask.  The phone number is 
405-745-1275. Customer Service is available Monday - Friday 8:30-5:00 CST.

Hi Jill, thanks so much, you are a gem to even look for these, boye looms
are like a four leaf clover, or a needle in a haystack lol, seem to be very
limited here. AS a last resort, what shop would sell them in the U.S? If I
ordered them and the flower loom now, the parcel might just get here when I
need it. Also, what is special about the boye looms, would other brands that
are set of four and round be O.K?  
Very best wishes. Valerie

Hi,

I did see a post where a lady bought a set of round looms at a store called
spotlight.  I have looked on there website and couldn't find them, but maybe
you could call or email them.
