Look up Martha Stewart looms. You are supposed to be able to weave with this loom along with loom knit on it.
Greg, do you have the hand book?
I think I sent it to you.
If she is interested and not able to buy a new one, I will discuss selling mine.
Make sure it is the one you want, first. Either Joanns or Michaels sells it. I forgot with one.
You have to put the loom together, so you have controle of the size and spacing of pegs. Either people love it or hate it!

Hi, all, I don't remember if I've asked this question on here or not, but I really really want to learn to weave items like bookmarks, belts, potholders, dishcloths, placemats, and maybe wall hangings. I have heard of a few looms but know nothing about them. What is a good starter loom that is a little more sophisticated than a potholder kkids' loom? I have almost no help with instruction reading and getting started. I want to hopefully work with one strand of cotton or acrylic worsted weight yarn like sugar and cream or red heart. I don't want to use super thin or super bulky yarn.
Any guidance and/or suggestions as to how I can accomplish this lifetime goal and ambition that I have wanted to do since age seven to 10 would be most greatly appreciated. I will have to order online or by mail or phone as there are no stores around that carry things like this. I have been to hobby lobby and we are going to get a JoAnn''s Fabric and craft store here eventually but it has not opened yet. Thanks for any help or guidance and advice. I already know how to crochet, needle knit, loom knit, weave with a potholder loom, latchhook, and a small amount of plastic canvas stitching.
Thanks and have a blessed day.
