Loom Knit: Cast Off with No Stretch

Loom Knit: Cast Off with No Stretch

The casting off technique for the flat looms has to be carefully considered. This is binding off with no stretch. While this technique is handy, it can ruin your project if the project has some stretch to it. In the scarf example here, a stretchy bind off would have been better. We have a tutorial…

Loom Knit: Zig Zag Duplicate Stitch

Loom Knit: Zig Zag Duplicate Stitch

The Loom Knit Zig Zag Duplicate Stitch is very similar to the loom knit zig-zag stitch but it’s called duplicate for a reason. When wrapping back in the opposite direction, you are going to follow the exact same path. In regular zig-zag stitching, the opposite direction, the wrapping is leaning in the opposite direction. Think…

Loom Knit: Zig Zag Stitch

The Loom Knit Zig Zag Stitch is a wrapping technique where it needs two rows to complete the stitch. It’s easy to loom knit. You will follow the path and the yarn will look on an angle going in one direction. You will then knit it to secure it. When wrapping back, you will wrap…

Loom Knit: Double Stockinette Stitch

Loom Knit: Double Stockinette Stitch

The Loom Knit Double Stockinette Stitch requires you to wrap the loom twice to double up the thickness. Getting started requires you to secure the cast-on process. I recommended a twisted stitch cast on to do that. There are other ways as well but that’s my recommendation. You will wrap the loom jumping across the…

Loom Knit: Stockinette Stitch

The Loom Knit Stockinette Stitch bounces across the loom skipping every other peg going across and then wrapping the skipped pegs coming back.

Loom Knit: Double Stockinette Twist Stitch

The Loom Knit Double Stockinette Twisted Stitch allows you to thicken up your project without having to double up on the yarn strands to feed it. You will proceed with wrapping the loom once across and then continue to wrap going back over it again. The trick is the bottom two loops on the peg…

Loom Knit: Flat Loom Stockinette Twist Stitch

Loom Knit: Flat Loom Stockinette Twist Stitch

The Loom Knitting Stockinette Twisted Stitch is my go to stitch for loom knitting. I love the look and ease of this stitch. It’s using an e-wrap technique of spinning around the peg so the strands cover each other. Like forming the small letter E. It makes for the project to be appearing to be…

Loom Knit: Stripes on Round Looms

Loom Knit: Stripes on Round Looms

Knitting Stripes on a Round Loom is easier than you think. Skipping pegs and using multiple strings are the trick. You can skip just 1 peg or multiples but the more you skip, the more yarn is carried in behind. I find the advantage with stripes is that you are carrying yarn, so you can…

The differences between the flat looms and how to consider using them. Use a portion of a large loom or use the full loom for bigger projects. These looms can be used in different ways. Use the loom to jump back and forth across the loom to double-side the loom knitting project so both sides…

Loom Knit: Double Wrap VS Double Stranding

Loom Knit: Double Wrap VS Double Stranding

The 4 Ply Worsted Yarn, double stranding is required for loom knitting on large peg looms. Double wrapping keeps yarn transitions. Yarn like Bernat Wavelength has a slow transition between the colour changing. if you are double stranding, and yes it’s faster, the transitioning will be lost if you double-strand versus double wrapping. Double wrapping…
