[Nfb-krafters-korner] Loom scrunchy instructions

Mon Apr 7 18:40:07 UTC 2014

What happens to the gap between 24 and peg 2?  
When making a round, they should be connected.  
Barb's method does connect, but I am not sure where she wants me to put the knot to end it.  Other wize it is nice.

Terry,
LIke Shelbi said, you move peg 24 to peg 23, knit off then move peg 23 back to peg 24, e wrap and then pull the tail through the loop.
