[Nfb-krafters-korner] [Nfb-krafters-korner kinds of looms

[Valerie]

Yes, I saw the nifty knitter looms on Amazon for a reasonable price. I looked at some of the reviews for the  Boye looms, and they mentioned exactly what you described, Henry.
I'm trying to make a list of supplies in my head so I can buy everything at once. I also need some needles and cotton yarn for the dishcloth class. I wanted to ask the  opinion of anyone on the list on weather it is better to get a set of interchangeable Circular knitting needles, or a fixed set of each size of needle as needed. I prefer circular knitting needles because that's all I have ever used, so I want to find something that works well. I   Don't want them to be fancy. I just want them to be affordable, and do the job.
I have signed up for the Loom Knit flower class, and I'm looking forward to making lots of things with my set. I have a friend who is having a baby, and hopefully one day I can try making a hat for her. She's naming her serenity.:-)
