2 pegs equal 1 on the kk loom because of their distance apart.  Barb said they were closer and you could use 4 pli yarn. Got to go.

Since I can not see this loom, please help me out here.  It said it is  32 peg loom, so not sure how Terry gets 16 pegs out of it.  Is it one  ofthose board looms that have a double row of pegs?  Is it just for flat  type knitting? [scarves]

What  shape is this loom and what can you make with so few pegs.  In my 
mind,  it is equal to 16 or less on a kk loom.   I make my scarves wider  than 
that.

Deb,  just keep in mind that because it is a smaller gauge, the pegs will be smaller  and closer together making it harder to "feel" what your doing, but with some  practice and  patiences I think you'll be able to work with it. I does  take longer to complete projects but I do like the way projects look when done  on these.

worsted.  Not sure  what I can do with it since its small and the instructions with all those  wonderful patterns are printed.  Maybe some of it will 
scan.   Thanks, Barb for the info.

want to pay a hefty price for a new loom, here is  a link to a small loom kit for about $20.00.  With this loom one can use  a single strand of worsted weight yarn.
