[Nfb-krafters-korner] Information needed for French or Spool Knitting

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

Hi Dotty;
I looked at the site!
How do they expect you to use the spool knitter with out a tool.  The tool would be better than with your fingers.

I saw the pot holder loom on that site.
I saw some craft books, too!
And expensive yarn.
A lot of child proof items and toys.

Hello, Terry,
The spool knitter is called the Camden Rose Knitting Tower and it is 
made for children out of natural materials, mainly Michigan birch wood. 
There are a number of wooden spool knitters out there but this one is 
double-ended with four-peg and six-peg ends and is made to be used 
without a lifting tool. The link is:
www.palumba.com/knitting-tower-with-yarn-and-instructions.html
I found it on Amazon where I find pretty much everything else.
