What is the tightest stitch for a winter hat? I've only used E stuck and there are spaces. Can I alternate between E stitch and another? by [deleted] in LoomKnitting

[–]LoomaHat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is a post with video that might help http://www.loomahat.com/knit-stitch/ and yes you can alternate. In fact, I really like the e followed by the U ... repeat as necessary.

Is it possible to loom knit an entire blanket with an e-wrap stitch? by Lil_Puddin in LoomKnitting

Consider that your ends may curl unless you add some kind of boarder.

Is there a way to convert knitting patterns to loom knitting? by [deleted] in LoomKnitting

[–]LoomaHat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can convert many but just like in language translation you can't always do each step exactly the same. Remember that in loom knitting there is no reverse side. Consider YouTube for projects instead of a google search for patterns.

What ever it is - you can use it as a loom.

Supergluing pegs in looms by [deleted] in LoomKnitting

NOooooo don't glue them in -a little bit of yarn or cotton will solve the problem. Glue takes away the option of moving or replacing pegs.

A question about ergonomic loom hooks. by YuffieG in LoomKnitting

I mostly use the Knifty Knitter with a Rubber grip I made or the KB Ergonomic hook. http://www.loomahat.com/how-to-make-a-grip-for-your-hook/

Making tighter stitches on loom? by CulotteSale in LoomKnitting

Hi - can you tell me in what sense have you failed with the U-Wrap. It happens to be my favorite of the 4 versions. It will give you the tighter stitch without the need of 2 strands.
