Hi Bernice,
I feel your pain on this one. I had the same problem, the solution I found was to use soft pencil grips on my loom-knitting tools.
Here is A link to some I‘ve found useful.
The Pencil Grip The Classics Soft Foam Pencil Grips, Ergonomic Writing Aid For Lefties And Righties, 1.5 Inch Long, Assorted Colors, 12 Count - TPG-16412 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GN1YN8U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_KPHDQKWJG87Z3FACB1GF
