Inklet loom8/4/2023 ![]() The All-in-One is truly all-in-one because it is adjustable to either knit in the round or as a long loom. It is the right size to tote around for knitting on the go, and it handles bulkier yarns really well with it's wide gauge. Personally, I adore the Loops and Threads loom on the right. This will create a more seamless, or less hole-y, look compared to the Zippy. Why I recommend: Long looms are great for creating either wide panels, or thick fluffy projects by knitting back and forth across the loom. Recently, I bought the Loops and Threads loom, right, and the All-in-One loom from Knitting Board. Over the years, I think I've lost all but two. Go Long, Baby-maybe for beginners: Sometime long ago, I bought a set of long looms from Knifty Knitter, left. Because it is not as readily available, patterns are also not as easily available. I am so glad I bought this set, but I pause to recommend these looms, particularly to newbies, because this set cost over $50. Why I pause: This set is made in the USA by a small company-it's not a mass made product, and the price reflects the care and quality of the product. This is basically the Cadillac of knitting looms, ya'll. Why I recommend: My CindWood looms are made from MDF wood with nylon pegs- this means that these are looms are ultra sturdy, slightly heavier, and yarn glides over the pegs easily. CindWood Looms are only available online, come in a variety of styles, including round, long, and afghan shapes, and a variety of gauges. At left is my set of CindWood Looms, custom made to have 5/8 inch gauge. However, recently I've become interested in doing projects with finer patterns, including cables. I love my large gauge looms, above, and I do most of my projects with them.
