I have browsed a ridiculous number of beginner loom knit videos, and you are, by leaps and bounds, the clearest, most concise instructor i have found. Your voice is warm and encouraging, you have minimal extraneous commentary and your expectation that to be a beginner does not necessarily mean you are not intelligent is tremendously gratifying. I have subscribed and will continue to use and recommend your tutorials!

Newbie here and wanted to thank you for the thoroughness of your videos and the way you explain what you’re doing! I made an attempt at a blanket using this video, but I used Bernat Blanket yarn and my blanket was so loose and didn’t hold a shape and I wasn’t sure if I did something wrong with the tightness of the figure 8’s or if that gauge of that yarn is just too small to do figure 8’s with on the zippy?
@hellomsyarn2 жыл бұрын
Even my blanket is quite airy. The figure 8 stitch is loose by its nature, and the gauge of this loom is so large. Maybe try a larger yarn as you mentioned. Otherwise maybe the stockinette stitch or the rib stitch would be denser. Thank you for sharing and for watching.
