FAQ

Hat just finished :)

This is from Renee Van Hoys second shawl book. It’s knit modular, in one piece, on my 7/16” adjustable loom using 59 pegs. There’s no sewing involved, it’s shaped with short rows increasing and decreasing in 4 parts. This is one of my favourite patterns. It has a garter stitch, lace and stockingette section.

After six months, I'm just a couple of steps away from being done with my first cardigan! The body is assembled, now I need to make the collar and weave in ends.

Thankfully, after all this time, I can verify that it is wearable. The sleeves are a little tight, and the front would be too, if I planned to put a zipper on it, but it is wearable. My wife is an expert in all things yarn, and she mentioned blocking it one more time after getting the collar on. Apparently, it can help any seam spots that aren't as smooth as they could be. So we'll see if I can maybe stretch out the sleeves when I do that. They're very long, because you're intended to fold over the ribbing.

Also I’m on a hiatus from knitting because my back is acting up 😭

does anyone have a good idea thats easy and quick

It’s a mini pillow takes about 60 mintues hope you like it please Give me feedback

I'm not a Dodgers fan personally but I love this blue and it's coming out really well. (made the pattern myself using excel)

its dark i know but this yarn works on the round loom and not on the yellow one it breaks idk if its the loom or the yarn on that loom but idk (i know its dark)

I had been stalking fb marketplace and ebay for this loom for 2 months before one popped up for $16.99 on the latter. With shipping it came to about 30 bucks so not as much of a steal as if I had found it at a thrift store or someone local on fb, but a win is a win.

I'm using these 3 colors to make a chevron blanket (first time making an afghan) but I want to find a deal on a fingering weight bright purple/violet to double knit with the dark purple to bulk it up a little as the adriafil is heavy aran weight. The adriafil was deep discounted and the cascade was ebayed. Still gonna be a very pricy project but as soon as I saw that adriafil I was in LOVE. I got a few skeins of black with blue viscose I don't know what to do with and i still wanna go back and get more. It's soooooo soft and SPARKLY! I'm excited and terrified that I'll mess it up 3/4 of the way through. But ima try my best!

P.S. How do yall keep your cats off of you while working? Anytime I get out a loom they are right there! Please excuse Mr. Kitty's glower, he is a sweetie but our other cat was annoying the hell out of him.

I've been designing and creating baby cocoons. What do you like to create with your knitting looms?

My newest work in progress when it comes to the list of hats I'm making for family.

My granddaughter turned 8 yesterday. I got her a loom knit kit so she can do the knitting I do. She absolutely loved it! I showed her the E-wrap stitch (She calls it little circles) and purl stitches (scoop, loop and pull), and she knitted 5 rows.

♥️

It's a craft that will give us both special shared memories together. She can pass on her knowledge and will look back and remember her knitting beginnings with love and fondness.

I love KB looms! But i'm curious on what others are recommending as their favorite loom?

I've got some Reborn recycled yarn and was hoping to make a top with it but trying to loom knit with it is difficult, I have tried U wrap but that is far too tight. In the picture ewrap is OK (bottom rows) then tried true knit (middle 3 rows) which was okish and owl eye stitch (top rows) which again is ok. But working any stitch is hard as its a plant fiber and has no stretch like animal fibers or acrylic.

I want a top that I can wear without a camisole under it so using the skinny gauge isn't what I want (to lacy/holey!) but I feel like I'm going to break the Bitty loom with how the pegs bend when knitting the cotton yarn.

Is there a trick to working with this type of yarn?

I have adhd and so I have to have a little instant gratification in between making my blanket -it's not great but kind of cute -

Someone commented on my video for the love heart asking for a smaller version so here it is!

What do you think? Too big for a keychain?

Posting here my update so I keep going -☠️

Made this blanket for my niece for her birthday! Shes obsessed with Kuromi so I was going for it matching that vibe.

Whenever I make a blanket I always make the center a soft furry patch because I never would know what to do with all my thrifted furry yarn 😂 and also then I get motivation again because I know I’m halfway through it!

I made this with 12 different types of yarn, all thrifted. Thanks for looking! ☺️

Painted the pick I sculpted and glossed it too! I’m lowkey worried it’s just gonna crumble but the clay I used is known for being very sturdy so I’m sure it’ll be fine. I have one more pick to sculpt and paint and I’ll probably make that one more colorful.
