I'M GOING LOOMY!!!

Yea, I spelled it correctly. I'm going loomy for the knitting loom. I have been in Croatia way too long and didn't even know this super cool tool existed. I bought it today and I'm already through almost 2 skeins of yarn. I bought the single since I didn't know if I wanted it or not but tomorrow I'm headed back to buy the 6 or 8 piece set. Oh yea and there is a 40% off coupon off one item here.
Anyhoo, I looked on YouTube and found a funny video for how to use the loom. Check it out, way too fun and super fast.

    US TOO :) A friend of mine from church taught my girls on Christmas Day how to use a knitting loom and then they taught me and so far we have made about 20 hats, several flowers and a scarf. My next project is going to be slippers.

    This video was very helpful to learn how to switch between colors and also how to do vertical stripes on the round looms.

    So much fun!

    Love those things! I have the hoops too to make hats. Just wish I had all the cute yarns with me here in Croatia. I tried crocheting without those looms and did not have much success. It is very relaxing. :)
