Afghans & Bed Runners for Knitting Looms - Denise Layman
General Directions
The patterns in this book were all made and written as if the knitting is being worked in a clockwise direction around the loom, so all patterns start at the first peg at the right and are worked to the left as the loom is held facing you. However, any pattern in this book can be worked in the counterclockwise direction by simply following the patterns as written.
Materials
All-n-One Loom from Authentic Knitting Board
Loom tool
Yarn or tapestry needle
E-Wrap Cast-On Method
Note: This is a 1-row cast-on.
1. Make a slip knot about 6 inches from the end of the yarn. Place it on right-most peg (peg 1).
2. Starting from the inside of the loom, bring the working yarn between next 2 pegs to the left (pegs 2 and 3) to the outside of the loom. Continue wrapping peg 2, bringing the working yarn between pegs 2 and 1 to the inside of the loom.
3. The yarn will cross over itself on the inside of peg 2 as it travels to peg 3.
4. Continue wrapping the pegs counterclockwise until the desired number of pegs have loops on them.
Purl Cast-On Method
Note: This is a 2-row cast-on
1. Make a slip knot about 6 inches from the end of the yarn. Place it on right-most peg.
2. E-wrap working yarn around pegs to one less than the desired number of stitches.
3. Bring the working yarn between the last wrapped peg and the next empty peg to the front of the loom, and then around the far edge of the next peg into the center of the loom (Photo 1).
4. Bring the working yarn back between the two pegs to the front of the loom so that the working yarn is in position to be purled on the first e-wrapped peg on the return row.
5. Purl on the return row (Photo 2).
Knit Stitch (K)
1. To make a knit stitch without a twist, bring the working yarn to the front of the loom above the previous stitch on the peg (Photo 1).
2. Bring the yarn slightly behind the peg, forming a little hook around the peg (Photo 2).
