Knitting Looms


I knitted my first hat a few weeks ago with a knitting loom. I bought a kit that has 4 sizes and two little tools. I didn't know what loom fit what kind of head so I just picked one. I ended up using the second size up and it turns out this size is for a small toddler. I think it looks pretty good if I don't say so myself. How did I learn to do this you may ask? YouTube!! That's right, YouTube. I just found a video and followed the step by step instructions. I didn't even mess up! Now that's an accomplishment all by itself.
Tonight I started another one. This time I'm using the second to the highest loom. I'm not really sure how big it'll be or who it's for, but it's just fun to learn something new. I want to make little baby one's for the hospital. That's next.

Nice job Megan! I love YouTube! I use it all the time if I need to learn a new knitting or crocheting stitch. The hat looks great!
