[@camcab147]

I think this should be the VERY first video any new loom knitter watches!

[@LoomaHat]

I'm with you : )

[@sometimesiwander7146]

camcab147 it’s mine!! Very first!!

[@sometimesiwander7146]

What a very photogenic family too! I need their lighting person bc they look so radiant.

[@brendahuey7450]

my husband and I both loom. I make hats and he's making scarfs. we're going to see how many we can make by next winter for the homeless. 💓

[@LoomaHat]

That is AWESOME Brenda - I believe the BEST pattern is a Rib Stitch hat - but with a brim: www.loomahat.com/rib-stitch-hat/

[@evelynvictorymatheny9047]

Brenda, you and your husband are awesome to do this! I do the same but for hospice center. Thank you for selflessly thinking of others.

[@jackiestone3468]

I have watched most of your videos, Denise, finally got to see you! What a great way to explain to beginners how loom knitting works! You are a pretty lady, and I look forward to more videos from you. Thanks, Jackie :)

[@Yarnycrafts]

I am not a new loom knitter, but I love the video! Loomahat was the first patterns and instructions I found when I first started looking on-line for help and patterns and is still my favorite. Thank you for what you do.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Laura , I really appreciate it !

[@patricekelly4663]

Thank you, I appreciate time & considerations in helping others. Your wonderful talents are being spread one hundred fold. Many thanks. Patrice K

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Patrice we really appreciate it !

[@missjuggalynne420]

Very well presented. I think the only time an odd numbered loom was crucial for me was a triangle shaped project, but even then, I worked with an even number of pegs and marked my center peg to keep even stitches added to each side. Thanks so much for the great info!

[@karieboyd3507]

Thank you for this video! I just started looming and you have been a life saver! Your daughter is a sweetie! 🙂 I can’t wait to jump in start creating projects!

[@mariepla1370]

I 've been crocheting for 45 years. I never learned to knit and I always loved the beautiful stitches that knitters make. I finally decided to learn how to loom knit. Many of the issues I have with the sizing of my hats, and fingerless gloves are due to the choice of stitches and loom guage. A lot of trial and error. I thank you for all the tips you can give. This is very helpful. Crocheting has always been my passion, but due to arthritis, I can't crochet fast enough to get projects done fast, like I used to. Loom knitting is not so hard on my hands and I can get a hat done in few hours. I will like to make an adult sweater, but I want to get better at it first. Thank you for sharing your knowlege.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Marie and have you seen the pattern for the rubber band grip for the loom hook: www.loomahat.com/how-to-make-a-grip-for-your-hook/

[@exiledqueen5065]

First if all, I find your voice to be very calm. Now, I'm been teaching my daughters (ages 12 & 10) yarn craft (crochet & knit) We discovered the knit loom while on summer vacation 2017, soon after we discovered your KZbin channel. Your videos have been oh-so-very helpful. My daughters have made their own scarfs and caps using the information and techniques referenced in your videos . For the first time, they're super excited about winter so they can show off their work. Thank you so very much for sharing.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Exiled Queen, I really appreciate it ! Sooooooo glad to hear about your girls. Love knowing that kids are taking up this craft. Hugs for you all !!!!

[@curtriceennis2924]

Love this video. So much info in it. One thing you might want to mention is how your tension also affects the way your pattern turns out. Just something I thought I'd share with you. But, Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge of the different looms. Some things I knew already, but, some things were like - " Wha ?!?!??? I didn't know that!!! " *REALLY!* So, thank you for sharing with us!!! AND, please keep your videos coming for us all - you seem to be a very nice and sweet person. 😻🥰😻

[@pebbles7864]

My loom kit is coming from Amazon tomorrow. With your help, I can't wait to get started. I'm a crocheter so this all new but I expect we'll have great time! Thanks for these videos!!

[@reimagine207]

Everybody NEEDS to watch this before starting looming whether your experienced knitter/crocheter

[@LoomaHat]

+Reimagine Thank YOU ! Glad you liked it.

[@Me34912]

The extra knit or purl advice on odd /even #looms really really helped me, I've seem so many patterns/tutorials done on looms that have the extra peg and always thought I couldn't make them because I didn't have the right loom, I'm making a list of all those patterns to start looming away ! ! thanks for the education ! !!

[@LoomaHat]

Thanks for the Thanks Just Me! I really appreciate it.

[@paulinesmith1446]

Thank you! This is the best description that I have heard explaining loom knitting, pegs, base, space between pegs. Thank you sincerely for doing this

[@EdricHsu]

Thanks for all these very useful tips! I am just about to start loom knitting so these definitely answered a lot of questions in this beginner’s head! Especially with the shape of the loom, as the one I got was a 4-piece foldable and detachable 48-peg loom (12 pegs in each piece/side, so we can customise to 4 different sizes) that has no fixed shape to work on.

[@devonhokanson6558]

Thank you so much. I have started a group of seniors on loom knitting and wish I'd had this info to start. We make simple hats for cancer treatment centers and small hats for refugee children. I just bought a loom to make a simple scarf (also for refugees). Had no idea about knit and purl stitches. My hands don't function well, but I seem to be fine with loom work and grateful I can give service through doing it. I want to learn different patterns, etc., and will take it slow, but looking forward to it. Hopefully, I can help our group expand their horizons too. And to John: the husband of one of our members went absolutely crazy with hats and did learn other stitches. You guys are absolute champs!

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU Mary - so glad to hear about folks loving on others. The world is so ugly and cruel - not enough love - Thank GOD for people like you. A Giant Hug and Many Many Kisses. About those hands - add grips to your hooks: www.loomahat.com/how-to-make-a-grip-for-your-hook/

[@karenlewkowitz5858]

Sounds like a good project - John sounds special. I woul wager the women are too. Why are they not named? Do the women bake pies for dear John?

[@dennissmith9024]

I learn so much from you!!! I have a basketweave pattern that I want to use for a hat and I only have odd numbered peg loom. You answered my question. You are my go to lady everytime I have a question. Again, thank you so much. Keep teaching us, I for one, love learning from you. So easy to follow! I started off learning you beginner hat and made that for awhile, got bored, and then branched out to so many other hats you have done teaching videos on!

[@49sburk]

Ok so I'm just really starting to get into the looms. A friend started teaching me the crocheting and then introduced me to the Looms as well and I like the loom so much better. Thank you for this cuz it was helpful. And I really wanted to thank you for the other tutorials that I've been able to watch of yours they have been extremely helpful in the projects that I've tried so far. Thanks

[@LoomaHat]

+49sburk I want to thank YOU for the thank you - I really appreciate it!

[@maggiepatterson7949]

WOW! there is a lot more to know about this craft than I thought! You are an excellent teacher! Thank you for all your videos, at the perfect speed and with such good instructions and explanations! I just bought my first 24 peg loom. I see it is more expensive than regular knitting ...looms are not cheap!

[@violetcarson5532]

Happy Monday morning Denise 🌅 thank you for this wealth of information ☺️ I have loom knitter sets for myself and my granddaughter and do plan on making somethings from your patterns I have purchased. Believe me I have purchased many of them☺️ this will certainly help me you have answered questions I had. Thank you for sharing with us newbies 🥰peace 🕊️ love ❤️ and blessings 🙏

[@knit4peace434]

Information presented so well, so concise, but in a warm manner! I've done regular knitting for more than 65 years, and my arthritic hands need alternatives. This looks like fun. THANK YOU!!!

[@LoomaHat]

Loom knitting is perfect for reasons such as your own - consider adding a grip to your hook kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmiZY3SfbZ2jbtU or using the KB hook amzn.to/2wjtXEB

[@DelilahdeLust]

I inherited a couple of small looms from my mother and didn't know what to do with them. Having watched three of your videos, I'm all set! You do a terrific job of explaining clearly and concisely. Thank you.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you DelilahdeLust, I really appreciate it !

[@CampffireZ]

That was an awesome video! Thank you so much for making it! I just bought my first looms last night after doing a lot of research on Pinterest. I couldn’t help but notice that the majority of things I liked well enough to Pin were from you and your company. I look forward to learning more from you and starting an exciting new hobby!

[@LoomaHat]

Welcome to the Family!

[@mom2mta]

I'm pretty sure I have watched this video before, but I still learned something this time! Thanks for being so clear in your explanations. I really appreciate that!

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU Janet!!!

[@abbycrager1911]

So glad to have a face to go with the voice I’ve been listening to.

[@donnaricks1589]

Hello Denise. First let me say I am new to loom knitting and your videos are the very best I have watched. I would like to thank you. You have helped me develop some skills and have help me build confidence in my growing abilities. I have found that the topic of "trouble shooting" has not been covered very well on you tube by anyone, So I thought I would ask you if you could put together a video for us newbies that addresses some basic problem solving? For examples how do I count the rows, and how do I correct my work if i have my yarn fall off of a peg? It is more complicated than just putting it back on! There are often multiple loops. I have found myself after hours of work finding a hole and pulling things apart and starting again because I can't figure out how to correct my mistakes. I find it hard to identify the stiches. I know how to crochet and it is easy to pull several stiches out and resume without having to destroy the project. I think you can help us all learn to trouble shoot. If u already have posted this type of video please leave a link. Thanks in advance for your help and thanks again for posting your excellent videos.

[@cindykirk1678]

Thank you... this is so help. I spin and knit as well as crochet but as I have arthritis I my hands I have started to try loom knitting. Great information.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Cindy, I really appreciate it ! Welcome to the family !

[@dessytab4405]

It is super helpful!! I don't know why the local yarn store only sell thin yarn so it's kinda hard looking for bulky yarn for 24 pegs loom. I found a similar diameter size loom but with 48 pegs, now I can try using the thin yarn

[@lynngal8819]

Your video has been very helpful in my beginning loom knitting. So far I have only used the long loom for simple scarves. I do want to watch some of your other videos so I can use my circular looms and make hats, bags, etc. Thank you.

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU for the Thank you Fun Channel, we really appreciate it !

[@redgar252]

You and your mom (I assume she is, such a beautiful resemblance) are so awesome. So glad I found your channel. I've been "practicing" my looming for a few months and was a little overwhelmed with a lot of the terms and how complicated it could be. Now I've watched a few of your videos and already started a linen stitch scarf from one of your other videos. Thanks so much and as long as you enjoy making these videos, I'll enjoy watching them. And yes, as John pointed out, men can loom too (with the help of some lovely ladies of course).

[@LoomaHat]

Thank you !!!

[@redgar252]

Perhaps I should have said you and your 'daughter'...apologies.

[@debrajones9744]

[@Matilda_King]

Thank you so much! All your videos are super helpful. Just starting looming and never done knitting, so some of the vocab has been confusing when I watch other videos. But you explain things very well. Thank you!

[@honibear6478]

I just found your video and thought it was great. My mother gave me a set of round looms several years ago and I tried using one. Well I gave up because my stitches were too tight and I didn't know how to not make them tight. Anyway I've been watching another loom knitter from the U.K. and thought I'd give it another try. Your info was very helpful and I plan on watching more of your videos. Thanks

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU HoniBear64 !!! Stay with it - it's sooooooo much fun and.. for real practice does make perfect.

[@taranoel7990]

Great information Denise !! Thank you 😊

[@j.laniwinkler9903]

Thank You Denise, I look forward each week to your new videos and posts. As I am not too new, I still struggle with some of that information. You cleared up some confusion that I was having about stitch size difference between E-wrap vs U knit stitch size. It seems my U knit stitches turn out so tight and it makes creating brims difficult

[@LoomaHat]

Hey Juanita - the U should not be so tight - try making sure you bend the yarn til you get that U - the less bend around the peg in the yarn the tighter the stitch . It becomes a Flat stitch which can be crazy tight.

[@brendahuey7450]

your tips and patterns are great. please keep them coming... blessings

[@LoomaHat]

Thank YOU Brenda !!!

[@gleracjas]

How do you convert a pattern from a knitting pattern to a loom knitting pattern or can you. By the way I learned a lot from you so far. Your great. Also do you have a loom knitted pattern for men’s slippers. Thx.

[@annquick8469]

Thank you for the helpful tips. I am very new to loom knitting and appreciate your instructions.

[@LoomaHat]

You are so VERY welcome!

[@chinaalia3]

thanks for your basic intro to looms. I can see myself asking those questions but some of them are pretty much you would think common sense but you be surprised on how many of us might not think that so thank you. I am looking forward to more patterns from you and of course always love your stitches and how you convert them for us into loom knitting because they're gorgeous. if you remember when you did your resolution video I did suggest that maybe we knit a square a month and make a nice beautiful Afghan with all the different stitch patterns that you show us. I know there are sample out Afghan things out there videos what have you but your work is so clean precise and neat that I think an Afghan sampler done by you along with the rest of us that follow you would be outstanding we can even use the current stitches that you've done since you started and then maybe add some new ones if you want but I definitely think it should be a group thing. you have a big following so maybe put that out there and yes I noticed you listed me and my suggestion already on your page but I'd like to get the rest of the group involve to because then it makes that project worth doing cuz I know you're not just going to do it for me. yes I can do it just for me by following your stitches but it's really helpful when you have someone with your knowledge to guide us and selecting the yarn maybe using the same exact Loom consistently and then how to attach it all together I definitely think it's worth it. I can create an Afghan on my Afghan Loom but I think having a sampler one is even better and I'm not sure I really want to sit there with a hundred and ninety eight pegs and try to figure out how many pigs I have to use per square and it's going to take me forever to do that and then console a changing pattern over and over as I go around. based on how you described the way you work I don't think you would want to do that either you're probably saying Hell No as we speak

[@LoomaHat]

I bought the Afghan loom 2 years ago - it's still under my desk. I have a huge project list for my round looms - still. Maybe for 2018

The fact that the particular style of Stich can vary the end result size is very useful info thank you so much! You have amazing tutorials ,I am considered using the largest with wool and shrink it to fit my grand daughter? Wool is my yarn of choice so 55 percent is an AVERAGE Shrinkage rate and keeping an eye on the end result as well,using the e wrap would probably be my best bet? As the u wrap is a smaller end result correct?

[@TooCuteToSell]

Thanks Denise! I’m worried about how big of a difference loom spacing can effect a pattern. If I did 19 stitches on a 41 peg loom vs a 24 etc. I know some are a half inch and some are a little smaller and a little bigger. Would be fun to see what the 4 tips or stitches look like with the different spaces with worst yarn or double strand worst

[@rosenbergpetra]

Hi from Sweden! I am doing fingerless glove mittens right now. The brim is done and now I'm doing "the body". I'm knitting on this blue 24 pegs loom and want the spiralpatterrn because my hat is made in that pattern and I want them to match. How do I adjust the pattern for an even numbered loom (the pattern says 3 e-wrap, 2 purl)? And secondly, I wonder if you could make some videos on projects made on long looms. I recently received a package with 4 long loom in different sizes. Thanks for an amazing channel. I love your videos and you give so much inspiration. I started to loom a week before Christmas and have done 9 different beanies, 2 tube scarfs and now I'm working on doing this fingerless glove mittens. Take care! Xoxo Petra

[@LoomaHat]

Hi Petra ! Oh WOW Sweden !!! Very cool - the pattern for the even numbered spiral is here: www.loomahat.com/spiral-hat ... as for the long looms - I still have a long list of patterns for the round - may be a bit longer before I get to the long looms but thank you so much for asking.

[@DottyGran247]

Fab info, I bought a set of 3 round looms a few years ago but haven't used them much because I could never find any patterns apart from hats & scarves...so glad I found your channel recently :) wondering do you have or could you design a pattern for a tea cosy, different sizes would be great as teapots start from one or two cups upwards. The two cup size is the one I'd like, no worries if it's not something you have or are planning to make. Thank you. Ann

[@LoomaHat]

Thanks for asking - have not had a request for that item but that would be something I would consider during summer or spring. My family and I drink a lot of tea but every one does a every man for himself type of thing. You know, one cup at a time.... Will do some research - demand dictates designs ....

Hi Denise. I like that you take such care with all your videos! It shows that you care for your viewers. Happy that I found your awesome videos and website. Keep up the good work! Just read your 5 facts. . . so helpful! I am having trouble with something else. I hope it's ok to ask it here? Just finished a flat panel piece on a round loom. Cast it off and wow, it was all lopsided. The cast off and cast ones where wider than the middle part. I was floored. What happened? Why did this happen? Using acrylic yarn doing one row ewrap, next row purl stitch. I would love some feed back on this. Want to knit a baby afghan so I am practicing, but now maybe giving up, especially if the afghan might turn out lopsided too. Thank you for your help.

How do you know when to use an odd or even amount of pegs without a pattern? What's the rules? When I use a k2tog YO, and an SSK YO I've had issues before. Thanks for the your awesome video's ❤

[@SanddollarStitcher]

Love this! Please make a blanket video. In addition, I always struggle with turning the row..meaning do I skip the first and last peg on each row? Knit over? Then follow the stitch?

[@LoomaHat]

How does the size of the peg affect the knitted item? If I use the correct amount of pegs is it ok to have a different size peg? Size of peg is not written on the loom. Also, how do I measure the distance between pegs? In between the pegs or from the top or from outside of one peg to the outside of the other peg? Thank you. Love your channel

How do you measure the gauge? Awesome video

After viewing your informative video the second time I do have a request. Can you do a video on which round loom fits what hat size? Like for adult vs. child/infant? You do a great job in presentation and would love to hear from you.

Oh I had come across this video while looking at your video lists. I like what you said about the green round loom that it is for everyone! Great explaining.

[@greenapple9477]

Thank you! Very informational. 100% part of the intro. You start OVER! 😂

[@LoomaHat]

Just wanted to see if you guys were actually paying attention...

[@bigjpickle]

Thank you! This is very helpful. one thought/question that I had, that others may have is, does it make a difference which direction you work around the loom? (clockwise or counter clockwise)? I noticed in various videos that people go different directions and sometimes switch directions in the middle of a project. I have only made 2 hats. I made my very 1st project/hat by following your video with the ewrap with a brim. Thank you very much for your detailed video(s). Because of that video I am hooked and loving loom knitting.

For knitting in the round, you can work in either direction, whichever is your preference. Your direction preference can depend on whether you are a righty or lefty. I'm right handed and usually work clockwise. Some start working (a flat panel) in a particular direction based on which stitches they are using but it is up to you. You wouldn't change directions in the midst of a project, if working in the round, but you can certainly work a flat panel, by changing directions, even on a round loom.

[@vegangelist]

Also... Here's something that might help you (it helped me to remember when I first started looming): when doing the e-wrap, if you are working clockwise around the loom, you will wrap the peg counter clockwise. If you are working counter clockwise around the loom, you wrap the peg clockwise.

Hi Emily - I would say unless the pattern designer indicates a particular direction the option is yours. I tend to knit like a left handed person although I'm right handed - makes it easier for me to video. Find your knitting groove and stay there unless the teacher tells you that you have to move. AND Thank YOU for the Thank you - I really appreciate it !

Thank you very much for the info. I was unaware of some of these facts. I appreciate the help. :-)

[@sheronsee]

what are the differences between and oval, rectangular and round looms? Thanks Denise!

[@tammyfaloon9334]

thanks. I have previously finished the simple spiral hat with the 36 peg loom using the pattern on loomahat and youtube and it was difficult the first time. However I did get it do with the help from friends online too. My question: I was told I could use the 48 peg purple loom from cindwood crafts but the spiral would be backwards. I don't have 41 peg for an adult hat.

Tammy - use the pattern by Lisa that is posted on the page: www.loomahat.com/spiral-hat/

[@lorrainelemon6679]

Awesome instructions!

[@chrissyluna8183]

Thank you for explaining this.

[@juliebenson3990]

Thank you, again for all that you do! I have a question...I bought this small loom says its for a flower, it's got 12 pegs, I dont know why I bought it! it was 50% off thats why, Question, can it be used for anything other than a flower? Maybe baby leg warmers or something? Looks like base is 3" to 3 1/2. Before I return it...hope this makes sense!
