I've been a full time university student for many years. An aunt gave me a set of round looms January 2012 and I've been knitting in my spare time since! I am also a self-taught needle knitter and crocheter. Ever since January I've made dozens of things and have been known as a prolific knitter/crocheter in the family. I generally post about tips and tricks, and like to figure out how to transpose needle knitting techniques to loom knitting.

Hello world!
It's my day off school today, and I've decided to learn how to do double knits on looms. I'm also looking up different cast-on methods for long looms. As school makes me busy, I hope I can post fairly regularly, because there are a great number of links out in the world, which have been useful to me. I hope to do that weekly, at least!
So my story for loom knitting? My aunt bought me a loom set, I tried it out, thought that e-wrap stitches (twisted stockinette) were the fugliest thing in the world. I found that normal knit stitches and purl stitches can make a lot of beautiful patterns, and here I am today. I shall be posting things I have made, and my mistakes with them (I've made a lot) later!
