I found a Green Knitting Loom on sale at the Hobby Lobby Yesterday. I have been playing around with it today. I guess I am going to make a Scarf out of it.
Anyone else own Knitting Looms? What sizes/colors do you own? what have you made?
Are there any websights to get some FREE patterns?

I think a knitting loom would be fun to have and use. My great aunt used to have a big rug loom and she made all kinds of throw rugs out of rags ripped and tied together to make the long strings needed for the rugs. I always wanted a loom like hers. These are arts that are going out of style and that is such a shame. Handmade things are so much nicer. Tatting is another art that is disappearing.

Hi there! Yes, I have been having a good time monkeying around with it.. The one that I have is a circle, it has 36 stiches, So I really am making a double layered scarf. I can remember when I was very young my mom making a rug out of scraps of material.
One day while I was waiting for a apt. I saw this lady making a rug out of plastic white and yellow grocery store bag strips. So anything is possible!
Thanks for responding.

i do not use knitting looms and i have never tried to use them but that is because i do not have the money to buy any my sister has a set of circular and rectangualr knitting looms and she loves knitting with them she makes it look so easy and her yarn always stays organized and nice and neat when she is knitting with them where as the yarn that i am knitting with sometimes gets tangled she also tends to knit faster with the knitting looms than she does with two straight needles good luck and have fun
