[Nfb-krafters-korner] needle vs machine knitting

[Dani Pagador]

Hi, Bernice and Octane.
Peg sends tail wags, and you're in our thoughts and prayers, too.

I can't loom knit to save my life. My tension is always too tight, and
I've been known to break pegs because of the tightness of it. Loom
knitting is faster than needle knitting, but I like the feel of the
yarn and knitting needles in my hands. If I made a mistake on a loom
knitted piece, I wouldn't even know where to begin to take it apart,
or put it back on the loom.

More Later,
Dani
