i just bought this knifty knitters loom set and made an adorable hat for my baby cousin!!! but does any body here know of any other patterns that i could use besides the hat pattern included in the package???
i know they sell other patterns separate but i didnt feel like paying extra.
I think those things are really neat but rather pricy.
I saw something really cool! If i could knit and could afford it ($60 something) I would get it. It was an interchangeable needle set. It had a bunch of different guages but the points had a screw on thing so your straight needle could become a set of circular needles. of a different guage. So it was really neat. I donāt know if it equaled how much each set of needles would be but it was pretty neat. I hadnāt seen the figure 8 ones, just the round ones and a straight long one
it is way cheaper to buy the interchangeables than to buy individual sets. and you can get them cheaper than $60 too. for example right now HObby Lobby has all of their needles and knitting supplies at 50% off. should end tomorrow but the sale comes around all the time. the set would cost about $30 right now. I got both my sets (these are all Boye sets i am talking about btw) off ebay for less than $40 shipped.
And you can get the Denise sets for less than $50 all over the place. I have two sets of the Boyes and am getting a set of Denises for Christmas!
Do they have them anywhere else? Unfortunately I boycott hobby lobby due to their sale of fur and due to the letter I received when I wrote them about it. It is such a nice store, and the associates are nice. I wish they didnāt sell fur!
I think I have Boye needles.
I saw some really pretty bamboo needles. What kind of needles do you all like best? I think my cast on is really tight so the aluminum slides.
Ebay sounds good. It is worth it to get the interchangeables???(for those who have them)
Pamelaā¦you may want to check out THIS THREAD that is ALL about interchangeables. SEVERAL of us have them and lots of folks ask questions about them, so we āstuckā a thread at the top of the General Forum to discuss the pros/cons of the different brands.
