My Knitting Looms

Extra fine gauge sock/mitten looms in child and adult sizes.
Small gauge Wonderloom has three adjustable pieces so you can change the size of the circle you make and do increases and decreases. It can also be used to make flat pieces.
Fine gauge rake is good for flat pieces.
These colorful looms are 3 of a set of 4 looms that I started with last year. Circular and flat pieces can be knit on these looms. The blue loom is perfect for premie hats and adult sized slipper socks. The red loom is perfect for infant sized hats and scarfs. The green loom is perfect for adult sized hats. It also comes with an extra large yellow loom which is good for shawls and baby doll blankets.

Slipper Sock for Natalie

I made this slipper sock using cotton yarn on my small gauge child sized sock loom. Natalie won't keep it on, so it doesn't look like I have to make the mate, unless I can think of someone else to give them to.

Bailey made Hat

Bailey, who is 6, almost 7, made most of this hat on the green KK loom. I helped her some with the hat and the pom pom.

Sweater for Bailey

I used a fine gauge rake for the front, back and sleeves and my wonderloom for the collar.

Kids in Santa Hats

It took me two weeks to make these 6 Santa hats for my kids. I wanted them to be ready for their picture with Santa at the school's annual breakfast with Santa. Check out my Six Kids and a Dog blog to see more pictures of the kids in these hats, including one with Santa.

Christmas Tree Hat

I made this hat on the green knifty knitter loom using a mosaic pattern I made up myself. The green trees are alternated with shadowed upside down red trees. I was thinking of adding a yellow star to the top of each of the green trees.

Infant hat with mittens

The hat was made on the red knifty knitter loom and the matching
humbless mittens were made on a fine gauge child size sock loom.

Two More Mittens

I made the mitten on the left second and like the shape of the top of the mitten better than the other one, so I may unsew the right one and resew the top to give it a better shape.

Two Santa Hats

Two hats done, four more to go. The bigger hat was done on the green knifty knitter. The smaller hat was done on the red knifty knitter.

One Loom Mitten

I made this mitten on my fine gauge child size loom using the one loom method to make the thumb. The yarn is chunky so the mitten is very thick. Should keep the recepient's hands very warm.

Santa Hat

I made this hat on the red knifty knitter loom for my 3 yo old. Now I have to make 5 more on the green loom for the rest of my kids. I want to get their Christmas picture taken with these hats. This hat took me about 2 hours while watching TV.
