[Nfb-krafters-korner] Loom scrunchy instructions

Mon Apr 7 18:49:41 UTC 2014

what do you mean peg 24 and peg 2? when you remove the scrunchy off
the loom with the basic bind off method, all the pegs will have been
bound off when you get to peg 24.

>> Simple Loom Scrunchy Instructions
>>
>> 	Supply list:
>> 1.	24-peg blue knifty knitter round loom or similar small round loom
>> 2.	Loom tool
>> 3.	1 skein of yarn
>> 4.	Plain hair elastic
>>
>> Step 1: Make a slip knot with your yarn and place it on the first peg.
>> Step 2: E-wrap cast on all the way around the loom then knit 1 over 1.
>> To e-wrap, bring the working yarn to the inside of the loom, wrap the
>> peg all the way from the back to the front and back to the inside
>> again. (Cast on as loosely as possible.) Step 3: Do ten rows of 1 over 1
>> e-wraps.
>> Step 4: To remove the project off the loom, you make a brim and place
>> the cast on loops over the hair elastic and on to the pegs. Place the
>> hair elastic in the middle inside of the loom, on top of the knitting.
>> Reach through the hair elastic, grab the cast on row and put each loop
>> back on to the pegs. Only put one loop on each peg. Do not put the
>> hair elastic on the loom. The knitting will simply go over the hair
>> elastic.
>> Step 5: Knit over all stitches.
>> Step 6: Do a basic flat bind off. Move the loop from the second peg
>> over to the first peg, knit over. Move the loop on the firse peg to
>> the second peg, then move the loop on the third peg to the second peg,
>> knit over. Continue with this pattern until all the loops are off the
>> loom. When you get to the last loop on the loom, e-wrap it, then cut
>> your working yarn, leaving a 3 inch tail. Pull the yarn through the loop
>> and pull tight. Weave in ends.
