[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Loom Knit Rectangles

For loom knit rectangles, I used a 3/8-inch Premium Round Loom & cast on 24 stitches in a worsted weight yarn. I can’t give exact row count as I used three different stitch patterns. I knit until I reached 9 inches. I used a crochet cast on & a super stretchy bind off.

I messaged Jill a few days ago & she did not have any rectangles at that time.

You actually got 7 inches with 35 stitches!
Either I have a larger needle or something is wrong. This is lion brand
super saver and I am getting about 10 inches.
Hopefully my sister can read the label. Is super saver thicker than Caron?

Hi,

I have two rectangles, one on the loom and one on the needles, right now.

I was going to try 24 pegs regular gauge for 9 inches knitted to 7, but it
was suggested I try 24 pegs small gauge for 7 inches knitted to 9, so that
is where I am at the moment.

I am using Caron Simply Soft on the AIO.

What loom bind off would be best for sewing together?

On the needles I am using the same yarn, different color, 35 stitches as
posted, size 7.

What is the tally of rectangles so far? Do we know how many are needed?

Happy knitting y'all,

Karen
