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

[Blindhands at aol.com]

Cindy Woods also has the mitten looms.  There is a loom for the thumb  and 
a loom for the hand.
 
Cathy was going to try to contact them to get more information regarding  
their mitten loom.
 
I also got their baby hat and bootie looms that are a pair of looms.   The 
hat loom comes in 2 spacing of pegs 1/2 inch and 3/4 inch.  I got the  1/2 
inch spacing of pegs.  The baby hat loom can be used for mittens, but  the 
bootie loom is a little larger then the thumb loom.  Cathy's class you  don't 
need the thumb loom so it might be a better choice to get the baby hat and  
bootie loom so you have more projects you can do.  I love their loom tool  
better then the other ones I have used.  When you purchase the set of looms  
you get the loom tool included.

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
