   Hi Bethany 🙂 You have some really nice patterns here. I’m going to have to try the mittens. My eight year old boy hates gloves with fingers. He has some really nice insulated ones that he refuses to wear. Thanks for sharing! Have a great day!

   I have never seen a premade purse form.. .Where would I find them? Are they retail, or only order.
   I love the rafia purse.. have never worked with it at all. Will have to give it a try.

   Thanks for the great pattern.

   Deb,

   I just wanted to make sure you knew that the purse form can definitely be found at Michaels Crafts, usually in the apparel aisle. There is an item number on the materials list in the pattern that will help you be able to find the correct form when you’re ready to go shopping.

   Hope you enjoy! 🙂

   Hi Bethany,
   I was just wondering if the bath mitt set is still available. Is it difficult to make? Thanks for the information.

    Hi,
    I am just learning how to use the Knifty Knitters Loom. I have made 1 hat. Now am trying to make a pair of socks but am having trouble on making the Heal of the sock. I have to start all over and need some help with a video or voice talk on it. Can you help me with that or know of a good website that teaches you that with a video or voice chat? Thanks for your help!

    I’m stumped with the directions to the mittens. When do you begin the round after you flat panel knit the thumbs. Is it at the same time you are flat paneling?
    Thanks

    December 24, 2008 at 9:20 am

    Hey, I just worked the basketweave placemat and I love it, but I ran out of yarn to do the cast off!! Not sure what happened since gauge is determined by the loom peg spacing, and I used the green round loom. My beginning tail is fairly short also, so it’s not that I left too much yarn at the beginning. I’m thinking my only option will be to rip back part of the basketweave portion so that I have enough to make the matching garter stitch edge.
30. gettinitpegged says:

    December 25, 2008 at 2:06 pm

    Hi, Rayne! I hope you’re having a very Merry Christmas!

    I have experienced this as well with this particular yarn…the only thing I can attribute it to is a variance in the actual yardage included in the skein. 😛 (…since many others were created using the same tension and with enough for one placemat in each skein.) It’s really weird! What has been done to remedy this in the past is to just use a tad bit from another skein to finish the placemat…there has actually been enough to do this and finish another out of the same skein…which is an additional factor that validates the yardage idea…

    But your idea of shortening the body of the placemat should work fine…just write down what you’ve done to adjust the pattern, so that you can make matching mates if you’re planning on creating a set. 🙂

    HTH’s! Happy holidays!

    I’m wondering if you can help me out. I purchased the “singer knitting machine” for my daughters to help teach them how to knit. They are just to young for me to teach them with needles, any way there was no project booklet included in the box upon opening it. Now I know how to knit with regular needles, but what I’m wondering is if any of the circle loom patterns that you have featured will work with this contraption. If so can you please include or send me some patterns that little girls can use. Or if you can help me look for a project booklet, I would be ever so grateful. Thank-you

    Hi there!

    These freebies are so cute! I am going to give hot chocolate kits & recipes for Christmas gifts and was hoping to make the “mug hugs” to go along with them.

    I am new to looming and I found the following step to be confusing because the lingo wasn’t on your key.
    ‘4-st RC’ – what does that mean?

    Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

    In answer to your question:
    A 4-st RC is a 4 Stitch Right Cable…to know how to do these, please follow the links provided in the pattern for detailed tutorials on how to create cables. (under Technique Links)

    kintt a round Do any of you have any patterns for it?? thank you. also could you make a prayer shalw with the wite loom?? Or the bigger loom?? thank you D.k.Lloyd
39. gettinitpegged says:

    September 9, 2009 at 10:50 am

    Hello, Debie!

    Without actually seeing the looms you’re talking about, it’s very difficult to be able to say what they’re used for, or what you can make on them. Do you think you could send me a picture of them so that I can see what kind of looms you’re describing? This would be very helpful. 🙂

    Short of that, how many pegs do these looms have, and are the pegs continuing in an unbroken circle all the way around the loom, or are they in a straight line?

    If the pegs are in a circle, then you can pretty much make any shape of item, including both round tubes, or straight panels of fabric. The size of items you can make depends on the number of pegs your looms have.

    I hope this helps…let me know if you can give me any more information. Thanks! 🙂

    I love the kitchen cookies, My husband and I seem to have lost all of our wash cloths to our roommates when they moved out, so we are always looking for small towels or sponges to scrub out our dishes with and such. This is perfect cause when it gets a little ratty, I can just make another instead of buying another box or bag of sponges. Thanks a a lot for this!

    I have seen a beautiful big cowl neck knitted pattern. Cowl necks are in style and my daughter wants one. I used the large rake nifty knitter but it isn’t big enough for what I want. The pattern I saw had 300 stitches joined in a round and it was ribbed knitting. It is a neck warmer and about 16 ” high. I wasn’t about to knit that many stitches since I started looming. I was wondering if you had any suggestions as to how I could do one on a loom. I was thinking of looming and then weaving in to join but I don’t know what stitches in needle knitting are equal to loom knitting.
43. gettinitpegged says:

    December 9, 2009 at 8:52 am

    Hello, Dianne! 🙂

    Because of the gauge difference between most needle knitted patterns and the Knifty Knitter looms, I think you’ll find that you’ll be able to adjust the cowl pattern to suit your needs just fine using the KK looms, even without the 300 pegs. I would think you’d be able to achieve a 16″ width just by knitting in a flat panel with even the red or green round looms, then stitching the ends together to make the circle of the cowl. Ribbing is pretty much the same for loom knitting as it is in needle knitting: alternating knit and purl stitches, keeping the knits above knits and the purls above purls in each successive row. Here’s a great place to see how to do these stitches on the looms: http://isela.typepad.com/looming_crafts/loom-videos.html

    I hope this gets you going on the right track! Happy Looming! 🙂

45. Dianne says:

    December 9, 2009 at 10:30 am

    I made one on the largest rake loom and just did the loop over because I am a beginner. The largest round one will make one for smaller children. The pattern I saw was the same as the ribbed though anyway. On the large rake loom it will fit adults or older children. I made one on the largest round one and it will fit small adults and older child, just make it shorter. I made mine 14″ because I was trying to do the pattern I saw. I then crocheted one that was very large. If you look in the Dec. 2009 Vogue knitting magazine you will see the cowl necks there. I can try and post a url to the pattern I saw.
    On Lions yard website there are free patterns that are really nice for Knitting so I thought I would just try them on the loom.

    Hi There!

    I just wanted to say that I’ve been making Scrubbi O’s like crazy! I used to buy a 3 pack of sponges weekly to clean up in the kitchen and went out to find a more environmently friendly and cheaper option and found these. I love that I can make 5 or 6 of them and wash them and reuse them over and over and its still cheaper than 1 3 pack of smelly sponges, I’m working on making some for the bathtub with a little softer tulle as my kids are begging for them..AND I’ve already got a good stash of them going to give to my mother and sisters in their Christmas gift bag. Your video is awesome and so easy to follow. My daughter is dying to ger her hands on a little spa kit so I’m sure I’ll be purchasing that pattern soon!

    Bethany,

    Please help! I am feeling remarkably stupid. I have been trying to make the “scrubby o’s”. I finished the first wedge, but I don’t understand how to start the second. Do you stitch the same pegs? The ones next to them? Do you do the crochet cast on again? I think I am over-complicating the process, but I just don’t get it! Any help will be greatly appreciated! I have your videos, but even that isn’t helping me get started!

    Lisa
82. gettinitpegged says:

    January 16, 2011 at 4:46 pm

    Hi Lisa! 🙂 This is a commonly asked question, which is why I’ve added this note in every Scrubby-O post I can find, lol. It states:

    “Project Note: When creating each wedge, just build right on top of the previous wedge without removing from loom, and create the new using exactly the same procedure… no cutting or stitching wedges together required! 😉 ” ….also, use exactly the same pegs used in the first wedge…no extra cast on, just repeat exactly the first wedge as written and you will see your circle start to form.

    Hope that helps!
    Bethany~
83. Lisa says:

    January 17, 2011 at 1:04 am

    Bethany,

    EUREKA!!! That makes so much more sense to my beleaguered little brain! 🙂

    So, just to be clear(er), when you finish a wedge you just pull the thread back to the first peg and start over? I get long “threads” along the back at each wedge change. Is there any way to avoid those?

    Thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate your taking the time to answer my questions!

    Lisa
84. gettinitpegged says:

    January 17, 2011 at 3:10 pm

    Hi Lisa! 🙂 You’re very welcome!

    You will actually be purling back across all the pegs so that you end up right back at the first peg again to start your new wedge. 😉 There shouldn’t be any long strings at all.
    You’re almost there!

    Thank you so much for putting these patterns here. I’ve started using the knitting loom because crochet makes my arms ache. But I need to make more than hats. You have some wonderful stuff, like the placemats, the oven mit, scrubby-O’s and bottle hug. But I am unable to down load any of them 😦 Is there another way to get them?

    Thank you so much,
    Becky

    Brooke: There are some really fun things to make on this website for beginners… you’ve probably already done some hats… now try making an upside-down hat as a gathered purse! You just make a cap as usual (no brim), gather it at the top (with no pom-pom), and turn it upside down. Now, just take a long piece of pretty ribbon and weave it in and out of the knitting about an inch or more down from the top of the “purse”… tie it in a pretty bow and you have your drawstring for closing the top. Attach an I-cord to the purse at both “top” ends of the purse and you have a shoulder strap!!! Tutorials on making an I-cord can be found on YouTube (or) instructions come with a Knifty Knitter spool loom 🙂 Hope this gives you a fun project for Spring!

    Becky R: I have found Bethany’s patterns on ravelry.com…. some of the patterns are free and some are a few dollars. I was able to pay for some of her patterns… which would download for me, then I would then print off. Not sure why you are having problems with downloading, if they are free. You may have to contact her via email. I do know that she is working hard these days to get her book finished, which might have the patterns you are looking for in it 🙂

    Just so you know, I did look up Becky's past comment history, and it looks like I sent her a private email containing several of the patterns located on the freebies page so that she could download them easier…I just forgot to answer her here as well. oopsie! Sometimes different browser and internet speeds will affect the ability to download some of the files, and I have no problem with attaching them to an email for folks when needed. 😉

     I purchased your book Looming for Little People and have made some of the projects, The Jester Hat was extremely cute. Now I am working on the So Cool Hat, and am having trouble figuring out how to do the brim. I know it is probably so easy it would slap me in the face, but by face must be in the wrong spot. I cannot figure out how to decrease at the 2 outside pegs, how do I deal with the three pegs before that??? Would appreciate any help as I have started and taken apart probably a minimum of 15 times in the last two days!!!!! Thank you!

     Thank you so much Bethany for your quick response. You hit the peg on the head. That is exactly what I was looking for. I did move the first two pegs over a couple of times but then started over because I felt like I had to pull so tight. I am new to looming also, and I think I am trying some challenging patterns right off the bat. I absolutely love the projects in your book and know that I will probably try every one of them! Thank you again!

113. gettinitpegged says:

     December 29, 2011 at 1:02 pm

     Hi Laurie! 🙂 I don’t have a video specifically for the kid’s mittens, but the adult mittens have been recorded by Christina Fasoula here: https://gettinitpegged.com/2011/11/19/mittens-on-knitting-looms/ Alternatively, you could use a long loom with an added loom clip (by Knifty Knitter) and just do the exact same project as the adults, but use the number of pegs specified in the pattern for the children’s mitts. This particular pattern was created before those long looms and clips were on the market, so this might be the easier way to go, rather than making them in a flat panel and seaming them up after the fact. This was pretty much the only way to make those mittens adjustable on a blue round KK loom, when that was all we had at hand. 😉

     I am IN LOVE with your site. I got my looms a couple of years ago just for fun and to play with but up until last year haven’t really done much with them. My little cousin was diagnosed with brain cancer and we all began making hats for him…… so many in fact that we donated close to 600 to the local cancer treatment hospital. Anyway, I made alot of his hats on the loom and they all began to look the same and I wanted something different. Thanks to your page (with VERY easy to follow instructions) I now know more stitches and can make more things as well. I am currently in love with the Scrubby-O’s pattern and have been making them left and right. I’m thinking about trying the mittens next. Thank you so much for sharing these and making easy to follow instructions with videos, It has been an absolute treat to watch and makes things easier to follow and understand. Again, Thank you.

Your adventures in loom knitting have gone on to not only help your cousin, but so many others! Hooray on embarking on the challenge to learn new stitches on your looms and thus, new projects to be able to share with those you love. Keep up the excellent work! (Work??! I meant fun, lol! 😉 )

I didn’t understand the directions too well, so I am just asking for a little clarification. Other than that (and it isn’t even a problem on your part), great patterns! Thank you! 😀

     Hi CB! 🙂 I’m so glad to hear that you’ve been enjoying the goodies to be found here at gettinitpegged.com!

     As for the Scrubby-O, you will be knitting all the wedges in one piece, one knitted directly after the previous one, using all the same pegs and all the same instructions. You will end up with a kind of curvy length of knitting, which you will then assemble into a circle. I also have some helpful videos explaining the process found on the Twisted Stitches page here: https://gettinitpegged.com/twisted-stitches/ Just scroll down until you spot them. 😉

     I hope this helps you in your Scrubby-O making adventures…they become quite addicting, so be forewarned, lol! ;D

     Bethany, I have a question about your book. Off-topic, I know. 😉 It is titled ‘Loom Knitting for Little People,’ and in the corner, it says ‘. . . for the kids in your life.’ Is it knitting projects where you knit something to GIVE to the child, or is it knitting projects for THEM to do? I probably know the answer already, but I just want to make sure. Again, I am easy to confuse, so this probably didn’t even occur to anyone else. 😉 Thanks!
125. gettinitpegged says:

     July 24, 2012 at 8:54 pm

     Hi there, CB! 🙂 I’m sorry for the late reply…we just returned from a family vacation. We had a lot of lot of fun together and it was just plain good to get away for a while!

     In answer to your question, “Loom Knitting for Little People” is a book designed to create loom knitted items *for* the kidletts in your life. 😉 Although, I will say that there are several projects that could conceivably be created by kids who are interested in loom knitting and display an aptitude for the craft.

     Also, there are many projects in the book that can also be created for adults, so it’s definitely capable of being used for more than just looming for children. There are scarves, bags, hats, blankets, and slippers that would be terrific for children and adults of all ages! 🙂

     I hope this helps give you a better idea. I’m planning on doing a slide show soon which details all the projects that are contained in the book. I think this will help people get a better idea of what amazing fun is to be had within it’s pages.

     Have a very happy summer…hopefully you’re finding time to wrap some yarn around your pegs!

     Hi Bethany like your patterns. I am new to loom knitting been doing a few baby hats. Have fibromyalgia so fingers at times do not want to knit or crochet so decided to do loom knitting I have a question about the line that goes up the side. How do I get rid of it make it tighter or do it so it do not stand out. I just been doing the e wrap. I have tried wrapping two loops going over one also wrapping 3 times going over two sts. I still get that holey line in the circle. I have not seen this question any where. Thank you for your help Best for the New Year Nina Can you send me an email so I can get help as soon as you are able to answer thank you so much
129. gettinitpegged says:

     Hello, Nina! 🙂 Welcome to the wonderful and chalk-full-of-fun world of loom knitting! 😀 I absolutely know what you mean about the looms being a better avenue for those sore fingers and wrists, having myself suffered with the issues of chronic pain.

     In answer to your question about the running “ladder” line which can run up the sides of your loom when ewrapping in the round…this is a problem that faces many new loom knitters. It is caused by extra looseness being created as you lift the bottom loop over the top loop on your way around the loom. As you progress, that bit of looseness just gets more pronounced, and no matter how tightly you pull the first stitch of the next row, you end up with this loose line. There are two ways to combat this issue:

     The first and most surefire way is to not wrap the entire row of stitches, proceeding then to knit off all of them at once. If you only ewrap and knit off one stitch at a time, there will be no way for that extra looseness to build up in your row…problem solved! 🙂

     The second way is to go ahead and ewrap the entire row, but make sure to just lightly FLIP the bottom loop over the top loop without PULLING at it, which is really what creates that extra looseness to begin with. You can also knit off your row in a different order each time, varying where you end your last knit off stitch. This also will help in nixing that ladder line.

     I hope this helps! Happy Looming to you!

     Hi Cathy! 🙂

     Hmmm…other than saying, “Make sure not to pull your yarn too tight,” lol, I’m not sure what to tell you. There have been the occasional times when a new loomer was actually knitting on the wrong side of the peg, causing all sorts of havoc, but this was during the ewrap process. The best tip I can think of for flat knitting is to use the U-Stitch. This is where you kind of “hug” the peg (in the shape of the letter “u”) with the yarn while knitting off. This helps you build ease into your flat stitches to make them much more manageable. If you visit youtube, I’m sure you can find a tutorial on doing the U-stitch. I hope this helps!

     As for where to get loom knitting books where you live, I have no idea, except to mention that if Amazon delivers to you, there is a treasure trove of books to be found! Until then, there are all sorts of informative blogs and videos that can help you out…be sure to check in the right side column of this site for helpful links. 😉 There are also a multitude of ebooks and patterns that can be downloaded (for free and purchase) through Ravelry.com. If you’re not yet a member, I highly recommend it! You can also find looming groups there that are very helpful to loomers of all skill levels. 😀

     I am newish to loom knitting. I tried the knitting pattern for the mittens. I found the last bit very confusing. I tried the videos, but I don’t think she does a clear job of explaining. I still got them done, but I had to improvise the last couple of rows..
155. gettinitpegged says:

     November 16, 2016 at 8:49 pm

     Hi there, Colleen! 🙂

     The pattern for these mittens was written before there was such a thing as an adjustable loom. We had only the fixed peg round ones, and some individual loom makers that were creating knitting boards, as well. But, the age of the adjustable looms hadn’t arrived yet, lol. Because of this, the challenge for the mittens was to try and help take out some of that bulk at the top of the fingers to help them be a little bit more fitted…all while using the Knifty Knitter blue loom of 24 pegs in large gauge. This is why that section of the pattern is a little bit fiddly. I am so pleased that you were still able to figure it all out, and I am also happy to hear that you felt confident enough to try your hand and adjusting the pattern to your liking! Kudos to you!!! I would recommend doing this same pattern on one of those adjustable looms I was mentioning before: those ones with the sliders in the center of the looms that make decreasing a snap, because it can change the total number of pegs being used. Once Knifty Knitter came out with those long looms with the loom clips, it made making narrowing down at the top of the fingertips so much easier! There are a variety of manufacturers that still make looms like this that are readily available, and you can even still find the odd KK long looms with clips on ebay or amazon for your mitten making pleasure. 🙂

     Hi Emily 🙂
     If the pattern doesn’t specifically state what the measurements are, I can’t really remember, lol. But I will say that the plate that was pictured with the placemats is a full sized dinner plate, so the are a fairly good size. You can absolutely create these on any shaped loom, as long as it has the number of pegs required, and the spacing between the pegs are comparable to the original Knifty Knitter looms (large gauge).
     Hope that helps!
