[Nfb-krafters-korner] Loom Knitting

Yes Rhonda these looms come in different sizes, different peg spacing and
you can make a lot of different things on them.

Are the knitting looms the round ones in different sizes? I'm a crocheter,
but have used the round looms to make hats only, and it wasn't until
recently I learned there are other patterns those are used for. I'm excited
to try to learn, since I can't use knitting needles.

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
