"Leave a comment...Could you amend the pattern to include when the DPNs will be used and instruct me on how to finish the hat using them. Thanks."

"Your stitch count should not change, it should be consistent row to row. For every SSK and K2tog you do there is a yo to compensate for the reduced stitches in the pattern. The pattern repeat is 17 stitches, SSK and K2tog use 6 stitches to complete each set of directions, there are 6 yo's elsewhere in the directions to compensate and bring the stitch count back to the original 214 stitches, if you are losing or gaining stitches look to your yo, that stitch makes it easy to lose or gain stitches, if it is not done correctly or is dropped accidentally. Hope this helps someone, happy knitting."

"All the abbreviations used in this pattern are standard abbreviations, typically a new abbreviations key is not provided unless there is a new or little known abbreviation used. If you google knitting abbreviations, you will get 10's of thousands of results, many of which are in printable chart form, so you can print them out and keep them for future reference."

"This is kind of a trick question. On double stockinette the purl sides of both are on the inside and are therefore hidden. It's the perfect stitch for hiding color change lines!!!!"

"There may have been an issue the day you tried it, but it worked fine for me today. Try again."

Babies are everywhere and although I'm biased, I believe they can make our day a whole lot better. As every baby enters the world, they should be greeted with a handmade gift, especially from family. Kathy Norris knows just what to make that sweet little baby in Loom Knit Baby Wraps from Leisure Arts.


When you need a cuddly gift for baby, loom knit one of the super-soft cocoons or afghans in this 32-page book. Choose from sweet and soft or bold and bright; each pattern has suggested colors, but you can of course come up with your own color schemes. Using bulky yarns or double strands you can easily work up a loom knit baby afghan in no time.


Both straight and round looms are used in the patterns provided in the book; skill levels also range from beginner to intermediate. You'll find basketweave designs, ripples, hexagons and other motifs and designs. Each of the knit blankets is super cute, but I really love the cocoons. Each one has a matching hat or hood to complete the look, which is perfect for those "first months" photo shoots.


In the back of the book you will find general instructions on gauge, symbols and terms and abbreviations; there are also colored photos and explanations on how to work the loom. Learn how to chain cast on, change colors, wrap the peg, left e-wrap decrease, left purl decrease, chain one bind off, and weaving seams; follow these and you'll be able to work up the perfect loom knit afghan.
