http://orangeloomers.blogspot.com/ - Would you like to learn how to loom knit? This blog will keep you current on when we are meeting & what project we are doing. I have looms available for purchase & will be supplying instructions. Our first project will be a simple hat with the basic knit stitch. All you need to bring is your yarn of choice ( mine is alpaca of course!) and yourself. If you already have looms and know what you are doing, please join us. All of us are always looking for inspiration where we can find it.
