[Nfb-krafters-korner] loom knit mitten class upcoming

[Maria and Joe Chapman]

HI.

have emailed the email address you gave and asked about shipping costs. I will also hunt around but am fairly sure they probably wouldn’t have these looms in australia.  Would it be the oval combo loom I’d be looking for?
thanks
