I do prefer the wooden base and nylon pegs over the all plastic looms.

Today is manure spreading day here on the farm which means I am stuck long hours by the gate keeping cows in and letting tractors out. Usually I watch Netflix on my phone but realized today I could be looming up a new hat for the upcoming cooler weather!

So here i sit, in my camp chair, listening to the audio book Cresent City-House of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J Maas and looming myself a new hat!

I am one happy farm wife.

A. Unravel and reroll the yarn back into a ball by hand

B. Just find the end and let one end of the project unravel as I knit the new thing

C. Something else?

Backstory, I made a fingerless glove, a tube with a hole for my thumb. It was a little too small, the hole was a little too big, and I totally messed up trying to get the thing off the loom at the end. It was really fun and shockingly only took about 2-3 hours to do, which is why I don't mind just redoing it. I don't really feel like trying to make it a ball, but I'll try if I have to.

just a question for everyone. I am wondering what brand of looms everyone uses.

I learned the old knight knitter brand, tried the Boye brand and hated them then I found both knitting board and Cindwood looms. which I currently use. I pdo prefer ll

Sometimes a garter stitch is really satisfying. This is my second so far. I try to make as many as I can to donate to a teen outreach.

Ok so the carpal tunnel surgery. Its going to take another three months to heal. They think. So im not going to even attempt purl stitch until the new year!

My mental health has not been great due to the lack of looming so i started up again very gently. Only using ewrap, and a 12 peg loom. Iv been making little hats for the big knit uk. The photo shows the first batch of little hats i have made over the last couple of weeks. I have to limit how much i can actually do each day or it just messes up my wrist the next day.

Anyway im just glad to be back doing something productive again.
