The Hook Up


Sometimes it pays to know people with connections. My wonderful Manager Karen at Roberts got me a couple of the new looms to play with. Told me to take them home and have fun. I already have some plans for some of them. I just have to find the time to make things, I have been at my normal job during the day and at Roberts at night almost all this week. So this weekend will be the soonest I can get some time to play with these. The Oval loom is neat. It has a smaller peg, both in how big around the peg is and in how tall it is. Its also spaced closer together then the Round looms pegs so wont need as much yarn I suspect. I haven't quite figured out what I am suppose to do with the weaving loom, not sure how to use it or what it makes. But all in all I am now even more excited for the new looms to come out. These are just loaners so I really want them out soon so that I can have a set (or two ;-) of my own.

I'll post some of the things I make on them as I finish them.

  • That's what I had heard from some of the folks at the corporate office. They made the one side of the spool knitter big with that reason in mind. I already have some ITA mitten looms so I am not real excited about it for that use but I have other things in mind for it.
