[Nfb-krafters-korner] new lk class

[Terry Powers]

I have the Martha Stewart loom set and the adjustable plastic hat loom set.
And all kk looms accept the one you mentioned.  Not sure of loom gages.
What loom would be best.
18 stitches sounds offly wide for a headband!
Do you know who sells this jiffy yarn.  Michaels solection has gone down
hill, greatly.  I have never used it before.

Thanks.

Terry P.

Hi Everyone,
My loom knit head band class is up on web site. It is a e-mail class
starting June 9th. You will learn how to do the feather & fan stitch
butterfly stitch. I am going to modify the butterfly stitch so it will end
even & come out a good width for a head band. You will need yarn with some
stretch so you can move loops. I used a 51 peg cindy Wood loom 1/2 inch
guage with Lion Brand Jiffy yarn. The kk loom 3/4 guage will not work for
the feather & fan stitch. I measured a 5/8 inch guage against my 1/2 inch
guage & it look like it would work. You want a loom size that you would use
to make a hat with. You could use the purple kk 48 peg loom. The feather &
fan stitch requires 18 pegs & the butterfly stitch requires minium of 10
pegs. 
So go over to the web site & sign up.
Debbie Ralston
