[Nfb-krafters-korner] loom search for upcoming class

[ncbootman at gmail.com]

Catherine,

I got mine at Walmart. I got the Boye brand. From what I can tell, brand is 
more a matter of preference. It is purple and costs around $5 here. On one 
end, there is 5 pegs and on the other end 8. When you have your husband help 
you, ask him to count the pegs. The first one I got had a broken one in the 
pack. Perhaps it had been dropped or handled roughly. I took it back for 
another and no problem. It will come with a loom tool and yarn needle. She 
said we could use a flower loom if we preferred. It has 12 pegs. Don't be 
intimidated. If I'm remembering correctly, the Martha Stewart is the one you 
can adjust the spacing of the pegs. For the Boye or other brands, they are 
pretty much the same. I think mine was called Deluxe Knitting Spool or 
something like that and is a hanging item in a plastic bag.

Hi,
I am looking for info on the loom needed for the holiday orniment class.  I 
want to be sure to purchase the best loom. Could someone describe the size 
of the loom and how many pegs there might be? We have Walmart & Michael’s 
locally and they both  have round looms. The Martha Stewart loom sounds too 
complicated for a newbie like me!
My husband will be the eyes in this shopping trip, so feel free to send link 
with a photo or send me a photo that will help him locate the correct loom.
Googling double ended spool resulted in hits on scuba diving. Adding knit 
loom to the search resulted in better hits, but no info on where to purchase 
such a device.
I’m very glad I took a look at the info on this class as I had assumed that 
it was a phone in class; glad it is an email class.  Not good to assume 
anything ever.
Thanks for any help,
Catherine J
