[Nfb-krafters-korner] triangle looming patterns

Tue Oct 29 00:57:41 UTC 2013

Hi,
I have both the 90 & 120 peg  1/2 guage loom from cindwood. I like her round 
looms better than the oval. I find them easier to work with for a large flat 
piece. I have the fan & feather pattern going on the 90 peg at present time. 
It is coming out real pretty. I also have a pearl heart towel pattern which 
I adapted to do on the 120 peg loom for a small blanket. fyi, both these 
looms are fairly large & are not a loom you want to travel with. I would 
willing to teach either one or both as a e-mail class.
Debbie

oh my, there are tons of written loom patterns out there.
I will start working on some BIG loom knit classes for next year, lol we can 
do them by email classes.
So get those big looms on your christmas list and lets have some fun.
Number 1 on my wish list is the 120 peg loom from cindwood in the 1/2" peg 
spacing and I also want one of her straight knitting boards.
