[Nfb-krafters-korner] Singapore!

[Serene Ang]

Cindy Singapore's weather all year round is hot only towards end of year is
raining season.
That is why only can use thin yarn.

Serena,
Can you explain why Singapore can't use thick yarn?

Hi Cathy I get the 1/2inch looms because Singapore can't use tick yarn.

Hi Serene,

The cindwood looms are more expensive than many looms but are certainly
worth the price. they are hand-made and will last forever.

When you purchase a cindwood loom you will notice that there is a choice of
peg spacing called the gauge.  usually the gauge choices will be either 3/4
inch or 1/2 inch. The 3/4 inch gauge is used for very thick yarn. it is
referred to as 6-ply in the US. the 1/2 gauge uses a yarn somewhat thinner
and you would use a 5-ply yarn for this loom. So my suggestion is to first
find out what ply yarn is available to you before you purchase a loom. 


Have a great day!!
Cathy F
