LOOM KNITTING

Loom knitting is a great way to make squares for blankets to warm needy children. If you remember French knitting or spool knitting as a child, you will appreciate loom knitting.

It has become popular in recent years as it offers a change from traditional needles. Also, this continues to be a great way to teach children to knit.  Knitting with a loom works up quickly and is easy to set down and pick up again.
