[Nfb-krafters-korner] Loose loom knitting flat bind off

[Barb Roland]

Minh, try the super stretchy bind off
Cut working yarn 3x the length of your project.
You can either thread it on a needle or just use you loom hook
Starting on end where working yarn is, lay working yarn in front of pegs 1 and 2, *below* the loops.
Pull working yarn UP through loop on peg 2
Place working yarn back in front of peg 1, *above* the loops, pull working yarn DOWN thru the loops.

Place working  yarn in front of pegs 2 and 3, *below* the loops
Pull working working yarn UP through loops on peg 3
Place working yarn back in front of peg 2 *above* the loop, pull working yarn DOWN thru the loops

Repeat to the end. When you have finished the last two pegs, knot it off and remove your work from the loom.

Let me know if you have any questions.
Barb
