Tutorial: Ribbing Stitch Using A Long Knitting Loom !

Hello Loom Knitters!

What do you knit with your looms these days?

I prepare the tutorials for the following stitches with photos, samples and anything that can help you!  

Today, I'll show you the Ribbing Stitch in a long rectangular knitting loom!

First we start by casting on using the anchor yarn.

Then we follow the steps indicated in the following photo. We start knitting from peg A1 (blue yarn) to peg B3 and we wrap every other peg on both rows of pegs except for B11 and B12 that they would be wrapped consecutive. We turn back with the red yarn wrapping the rest pegs and we also wrap consecutive B1 and B2. We secure our yarn to the external peg and we hook over so every peg has one loop.

This is Ribbing Stitch! 

It's easy and impressive at the same time!  Give it a try and let me know!

Tutorial: Cast On, Bind Off and Stockinette Stitch Using A Long Knitting Loom!

Hello my friends!

How are you?

I think that it's our time for creation, joy and relaxation! I think that it's the time to start Loom Knitting!

Let's start by learning how to cast on and bind off and of course a very easy and beautiful stitch, the stockinette stitch in a long rectangular knitting loom.

* I would advise you for the first time to use the smaller knitting loom, the one with 12 pegs, and a cheap acrylic yarn as it will be more easy to work with, especially at the beginning!

The first step for loom knitting is the Cast on. 

Below you can see the steps for casting on one by one.

Now we will learn the Stockinette stitch. It's a very easy stitch with which you can loom knit many many things as scarves, sweaters, bags, pillows and whatever you want!

Below you can see how this stitch looks like using a medium worsted acrylic yarn. When we will bind off, the edgings would not be curly as shown at the photo but straight.

 Finally, we have to bind off. Let's see how!

In a few days I will post photos of bind off too. 


Please don' t hesitate to ask me whatever you think it's complicated to you!
