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

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Be sure that you ask for the extra peg for the side that Cathy  mentioned.  
I wouldn't want you to get this loom and not have this piece so  you 
couldn't do the mittens.

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
