I used this pattern on the kb all in one loom. I love it. Just a little tighter stitch. I have found the dishcloth to stretch not shrink. I have made 11 on the all in one. Now I am trying double thread on round loom. I am new to looming and I am really enjoying it. I have made 2 hats and scarfs. I had a ladies gathering at my house and gave each guest a dish cloth. The ladies loved them. As an added Blessing I prayed while knitting each cloth for the one who was to receive it.
Darlene Dunn You are AWESOME!!! I love that you prayed for each one who received the dish cloths!!! I used to work at a hosiery factory and my job was to fold and package the products by hand. I LOVED to pray that each person who wore the pieces that I was folding would be blessed, feel beautiful and special. It is such a magical gift to offer others... and ourselves... even though they do not know about the silent prayer. I felt like the luckiest person in the world to have that job because I could pray for so many people in one day. haha By blessing others, I was blessed right back. :) I was so excited when I read your comment!! Looming is such a fun thing to do. I am totally addicted. HAHA I need to try making a dish cloth that is doubled on the thread. Great idea. The All In One loom looks like a really neat loom to use. Can you make hats on that loom too? Thank you so much for your comment and for making me smile.
My children just followed your video and made washcloths for themselves from bright colours of cotton yarn. They are 12, 9, 8 and 6. We could follow along easily. They are so proud of their work. Thanks for the awesome instructions! Happy New Year!
+Dorothy Sarell YAY!! I am so happy that you found this video helpful. :) I love to loom dishcloths. They are so much fun and make great gifts. I recently made another dishcloth tutorial. They are awesome. Here is the link if you want to give them a try too - th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html They are addictive to make. haha Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. OXOX
Thank you! Great video, I’m currently making my first dishcloth using your video! I’ll have to watch again when I get to the end! Looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
I just returned from Walmart. They had Cotton Peaches and Cream on clearance for $2.00 a bolt. Regularly priced for $7.97. It's green, white and light blue and says cone ivy league. Will make great dish cloths! I couldn't resist buying two bolts at $2.00 each! :) I had just seen it on your video yesterday and was excited to find some on clearance today! :) Love making pretty things! And love a deal! Thanks for the video! Love all of your videos!
WOW!! That is an awesome deal!! I love sales like that. I am so happy that you are going to make dish clothes. YAY!! They are so much fun to make. :) Thanks for watching. OXOX
Hi!! Thanks for the tortoial!! I just finished some hats on the loom. Wanted to try a dish cloth; and found you! I've watched it twice and now I'm ready to roll!!!! ;) I agree with one of the other post and love to see your red/black hat and scarf - they are AWESOME!!! Thanks again for posting!! I'm gonna follow YOU!!
hersheylund Yay!! I am so happy you are going to give the dish cloths a try. :) I will have to make that hat video. They are really easy. I really enjoy making hats. Thank you so much for following us and for watching. :)
Thanks for the video. I will be attempting a dish cloth soon. I'm gonna try this yarn called scrubby its for making dish cloths. I think I should use 2 strands. when I'm done I will post a picture. thanks foe explaining so well and taking your time. some tutorials they assume everyone knows more than they do. I will be subscribing to your channel thanks!
+carrie snelgrove I would LOVE to see how it turns out. I have never made one with scrubby yarn. It sounds amazing! That is a GREAT idea. I can't wait to see it. Thank you SO much for watching and subscribing. That means so much to me. :) OXOX
Love this pattern , i just got a set of round looms my self from my sister for my 54 birthday in dec, this year. I cant wait to make these easy dish clothes . : ) Thanks so much for sharing this pattern i will try to make me some and some friends. : ) Hugs toni g. and Have a very Merry Christmas early : )
So glad I found your video. Your very patient & made something so easy easier. Loved you sweet energy. Subscribed instantly of course. Peace, love & happiness. 🤗
Another good video, thank you for sharing!!! Now will get my loom out!! Your son is so cute, beans and potatoes we Irish do cream potatoes and beans with sausages yum! xx
I love you and your videos! So fun and positive and easy to understand. I started loom knitting last winter when hubby gave me a whole set of circle looms and long looms. I was "hooked" after making my first scarf. Now I make your dishcloths, hats and scarves. What state are you from? I live in Ohio. You sound like you live in Pennsylvania or Ohio. Hope you had a wonderful holiday. Happy New Year!
+Liz Feick Hi Liz. THANK YOU! It makes me so happy that you enjoy the looming videos. YAY! We have great husbands. hehe Looms are a wonderful gift. We live in Tennessee. I grew up in NJ so that is probably why I sound like I live in the north east. LOL Our holidays were wonderful. It is hard to believe that it is over. I look forward to making new projects this year after my long vacation. :) You will LOVE the new dishcloth that I came up with. They are easy to make and everyone that I made them for thinks they are awesome. :) I am working on making myself some more now. haha I hope you had a great vacation with your family too. Thanks for watching and it is nice to meet you. OXOX
Your videos are fantastic, creative, cheerful, unique, and extraordinary. I actually made two dishcloths because your videos are amazing. I will try to post it on your facebook page if I can. remember, you are awesome. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, I'm going to give this a go. I tried knitting with needles but just cant get the hang of it. I do crochet. But decided to also learn to knit on my loom. I'm doing a 10 stitch blank but it's going slowly. I though a dish cloth might go faster.
Thank you so much for making this video! It looks so easy and I will be making them soon. I'm new at looming too and I already made 3 hats, and 2 ear warmers :)
shannon nielsen That is awesome Shannon! You are doing GREAT. I think looming is so addictive. haha I always have my looms and yarn by me when I am sitting on the couch. I even take them to the dentist office. LOL Thank you for watching. I am so glad you are enjoying your looms. :)
+EasyMeWorld Thank you for your comment. it is a lot fun and relaxing. What color peaches and cream yarn is in the video? I cant seem to find those colors anywhere. It is very addictive. I love to loom. I made a dish cloth recently, but didnt turn as well as I wanted, but I will get better with practice. I did the pine cone owl today. I also made the snow flake ornaments and the small loom pumpkins. That was fun! I love all your videos. Keep posting :)
I loved your video, and your happy go lucky personality. I have plastic looms all different brands and a knitting board. I want to learn to knit. I do crochet, but never had anyone to teach me to knit. I believe I learned a lot from your video I also love your hat! Last year I made hats and scarfs for my friends up north. But I stopped looming. I think I got tired of hats and scarfs. It was all I knew how to do at the time. Now its time for dish cloths and socks. That should keep me busy.Do you find that your dish cloths are too lose when knitted ob the plastic loom? I bought the knitting gauge so I'd have a smaller gauge. I wanted to see how the dish cloth was done. Let me know about the gauge. I am using 100% cotton. Thanks!
+Claire Bacchi Hi Claire. It has been a while since I made a video and I have been itching to get back at it. haha I have another dish cloth that I came up with before Christmas last year and I am pretty excited to share it with everyone because they are AWESOME to use. I want to make it my next project. I LOVE making easy stuff on my looms that do not take a lot of counting. It makes it nice for when I am sitting around the fire talking to friends, watching TV or just day dreaming and I never worry if I missed count. LOL I made them to give as Christmas gifts and everyone loves them. :) I use the Peaches and Cream cotton string that you get on the big spools at Walmart. I am not sure about the gauge. It is 100% cotton. These dish cloths are pretty loose but I like them because they dry great and I do not have a problem with them having odors. :) I hope this helps a little. I am so excited that you are getting back into looming and you have a blast with it. Thank you SO much for watching and commenting. OXOX
Hi I'm loving your videos!!!! Thanks to your lessons I've made my very first dish towel!!! And am now on my second, I was wondering if u have ever worked with an infinity loom (figure 8 loom for blankets) or a sock loom? Both were given to me for Christmas but I haven't worked up the courage to try them yet. Plz continue to post your looming videos THEY ARE WONDERFUL!!
deetles98 That is a great idea. :) You are the first one to ask about the red and black hat. I will put it on my list of future videos.Thank you very much.
Valerie Hofmann I love questions like this because it always helps ME learn too. I am going to do some research and dig deeper to find out. I am still new to looming myself and this was one of my first projects so I picked something really simple to make. One of my next steps needs to be to learn how to read a pattern. Thank you SO much for the question. You are awesome. :)
Hi tammy. I am so glad you like my favorite hat. :) This video inspired me when I made that hat: th-cam.com/video/Oqe36ghs-PU/w-d-xo.html She did not make her hat long but I followed her directions and just kept going with it until it was super long. Then I made a big pompom for the end. I hope it helps you make one too. :) Have fun and thanks for watching.
This is a great video!! I'm sure u get this a lot.. But u are so cheerful and friendly.. Great to watch! Ur vids are always great..! :) and btw I LOVE that blue and white hat! It's sooo cute!! I crochet but now I kinda wanna loom!! :)
Hi Cassie. Thank you SO much for the lovely comment. That makes me smile. :) Isn't the blue and white hat just so awesomely cute? I never could figure out why my boys always laughed or rolled their eyes when I wore it. hahaha They obviously don't know STYLE. hahaha You will LOVE making things on a loom if you like to crochet. It is so relaxing to do. I always have a loom in my hands these days. :) Fun stuff. Thank you for watching.
Do you use 1 strand or 2 strands want to make one if I get it want to make them as pocket prayers shawls and some dish clothes for the holidays. I enjoy your videos made your Pumpkins and Snowman already. Thanks
+OwlnLoomnCrazy katzbeck You can make it with 1 or 2 strands. It depends on how thick you want it to be. I made mine with one strand because it dries faster with one strand. I am so excited that you made the pumpkin and snowman. YAY!! Thank you SO much. OXOX
Hi there, great video as always. I have made one of these and bought several large and small spools of this cotton string to make more. I want to try making your other wash cloth from another video too. I have a question....at the beginning of this video you showed the first and second hats you made.....both are great. I love the black and dark red on the second one. Do you recall what yarn you used? Size, brand, exact color ( the red) and if it was two strands? I love the colors and the matching scarf. Keep up the good work. :)
Hi Even tho this is an old video, it is the one I learned to make a dish cloth. But I have a question. I have made 3 dish cloths and they all stretch on 3 sides but not on the 4th side. What am I doing wrong, I try not to wrap too tight. Is it that I am still wrapping them too tight? Appreciate your reply
Hi Mary. Thank you so much. :) I was so excited about my funky hat. HAHA My sister in law asked me to make a hat like mine for her Christmas gift so I know that I will have to make another one soon. Maybe I can see if I can create a video AND pattern. I kind of made it up because I usually play things by ear. hehe It may be fun to do it though. It would be different. I think my brain rebels against patterns. haha That is why you don't see many videos with patterns on my channel. Even this one really isn't a pattern. I don't count the rows. It fits my hand though. LOL
+EasyMeWorld can you make a video of how to Knit I know how I'm just very rusty right now I haven't done it in a long time and LOL lost my crocheting book that I was crocheting with right now back to knitting until I can go back to the store to buy more crocheting hooks
Just wondered if your were to say sell those loom knit dish cloths, say what would be a easy price to put like on a set of 4 per set ?? Thanks for any advice on cotton items . sincercly toni g. : )
MYSTICFROG43 Hi Toni! Great to see you. :) I am not really sure about what I would sell them for. I never was great at pricing things. hehe I will take a wild guess though... maybe $3? I do not go to many craft fairs so that is just a random guess. LOL Thanks for the question. It is a great idea to sell them.
EasyMeWorld.....I've loomed for a while now. Not as good as you. :) But I haven't tried new things either...just kinda keep doing the same things. I started this one, and, I just started, but I have a few rows done. Mine are much looser than yours are shown. I tighten them up to while I'm doing it. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
+Breann Bhatti Hi Breann. This pattern is a loose knit so you are probably not doing anything wrong at all. :) I like it because the dishcloth is easy to dry out and has less smell. I recently came up with another pattern for a dishcloth and it is even better than this one. It is thicker but easy to dry out like this one is. I made several of them for Christmas gifts this year. I plan to make a video on how to make the new style of dish cloth. Fun stuff and easy too!! hehe If you would like this pattern thicker than you can use 2 strands together. Looming is so much fun and so easy to change the patterns. It is such fun to experiment with different stitches too. :) Thank you SO much for watching and for taking the time to comment. OXOX
Hey I love ur videos!!! I just started looming a couple of weeks ago so I'm a big time rookie !!!!! Ur videos are really helpful !!!! I have problems taking m y finished work of the loom every time I take it off my stitches come undone . What am I doing wrong?
Hi Sheila. I am not sure what you may be doing wrong. Here is another really easy dish cloth that you might want to try. th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html It is pretty easy to finish the ends and everyone seems to love this dish cloth. Don't give up. You will have a blast learning how to loom. :) Thank you for giving this project a try. OXOX
+ssarahkat999 I am not sure of the size. It is a cotton string. I like my dish rags when they are not tightly woven because it gives them plenty of space to breathe and that keeps them from stinking. hehe You can do it with 2 cotton strings and it might give it more thickness. Experiment with it to make it how you like it best. :) Thanks so much for the comment and for watching. OXOX
I have wanted to try knitting, but I want to use this style the loom. I think it will be better on my hands than trying to mange two needles and yarn. I am getting a loom and yarn and off I go.
i appreciate u helping me in regards to the loom project.You inspire me with ur enthusiasm. Keep up the good work. i am looking forward to seeing more of ur videos on the Looms.Your instructions were very simple to understand. Thanks again
Your steps were great, followed them completely, however my cast off row is tight and my first row is super loose. I don't have a square/rectangular dishcloth whatsoever. I suppose just practice or is there a hint somewhere? Thanks. :)
I had the same thing happen when I first started making my dish cloths on the loom. I should have mentioned that in the video but I forgot. Ooops. :) It does take practice to do it a bit looser. Once you get the hang of it, they will be perfect. My daughter also told me that she had to practice doing it looser too. So hang in there and be aware of making the last row loose. You can still use the dish cloth you made even if it is not square/rectangular. :) Thank you SO much for your response. I am very happy you are making dish cloths. Yay!!
Hi, since in all the videos you say to share your ideas so I was wondering if u could show how to arm knit a soft and cuddly blanket! It's ok if it takes you a few weeks to do. Thanks! Bye
Hi Teresa. Thank you so much for your suggestion. I was just talking about arm knitting with my daughter yesterday. I actually want to give it a try. I really never did it but I have some cool ideas in my head about what to use for yarn. Not sure if they will work yet. hehe I also would LOVE to make a blanket. I am not sure when I will be able to make a video. I still have to learn how to do it and then practice. :) I love the idea. Thanks again.
I absolutely love your video! I am new to looming and usually crochet my dishcloths, but like you, am having fun learning new things with the loom and wanted to try a dishcloth. Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow, I love that you even include the type of yarn you use, and of course cheerful personality really makes it even more fun to learn. I recently made a scarf that turned out alright, but I was wondering what yarn you used for your red and black scarf that you made to go with your second hat? I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos!
isis2516 Aww thank you so much isis. :) Looming is so much fun! hehe I knew it would be but I didn't know that I would have THIS much fun. :D I have made a lot of scarves by knitting or crocheting them but I was super curious about looming a scarf so I made the red scarf. I really like it and it is so warm. My boys always "borrow" it and I have to look for it when I want to wear it. haha The yarn that I used for the scarf was the Red Heart 4 ply yarn. I found it on sale at Walmart after Christmas. I am so glad that you enjoy looming as much as I do. :D I can't wait to come up with more projects. Thanks for watching. :)
Awesome, thank you for the reply!! I'm going to go hunt down some of the yarn, make a scarf, then try your adorable long hat you posted a video for. Thank you for all the great videos you post and for replying to comments and questions!!!
Hi Sue. Here is another dish cloth that may be easier for you. th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html It is a great dish cloth and you can make it on a round loom too. It is actually my favorite dish cloth pattern. :) Have fun. OXOX
i just finished my dishcloth, did everything like you said to do, my only problem is it is so tight when i did the cast off that it is out of shape. what did i do wrong? it is very lose all the rest of the cloth but that cast off brings it all in and its not a rectangle
deborah575vt I am so happy you are making a dish cloth. :) Double check the stitches on your cast off row to make sure you are doing it correctly. It took me several tries to get first dish cloths right too. It may be that all you have to do is practice. Once you get the hang of it, you will be hooked. hehe I hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
I really enjoyed your video and everything went great until the cast off.. did it over and over again.. but i think i made my mistake by having the last row as a pearl row and casting from there, kept losing stiches. I then knitted a row and boom came off just fine. . not sure if that would make a difference or not but everything looks good now. Thanks again.
Cecilia Sweete Thank you SO much Cecilia. I love your tip. I really appreciate you sharing. You are awesome. I am glad you are making the dish cloths. YAY! :)
Hey EasyMeWould can you please make a video of how to knit I would really like that from one of your videos I tried to search a video with another person and tried to help someone else out that made a comment of how to make dishcloths I gave them what you always said about dishcloths a suggestion about it for them to use peaches and cream and they said the comment was rude have no idea what they meant I was giving them your suggestion of what to use for coasters and dishcloths what kind of yarn to use I would very much appreciate it and if you could do that for me I would continue watching your videos and no one else's because you were very nice I wish I knew how to meet you in person me and you would have a blast crocheting and knitting together
When I first started out, the largest loom I had was a 36 peg loom. That is exactly what fit my head. :) When I made hats for my son in law, I had to get a 40 peg loom. I had fun practicing with my hats before I made gifts for him though. LOL Thanks a bunch for watching. OXOX
How much shrinkage happens with yours? I don't think I want any the size you make, but I don't want any itty bitty ones from them coming out of the wash shrunk.
Amanda David I do not notice a lot of shrinkage with my dish clothes but they seem to be pretty stretchy. hehe You can change the size to whatever you think would be best by using less pegs and less rows. It is fun to experiment with different sizes to find what you think works best. I actually have all kinds of different sizes that I use. I tend to like the larger ones best because they wipe up more water and messes when I wipe everything down. :) I hope this helps.
I'm doing something wrong..... I've made my ehooks and doubled the end. when I start to stitch I loose it, it's not holding the knot.... what am I doing wrong?
Hi Jen. I made another Dishcloth video if you want to try it and see if it is easier. I LOVE the double layer dishcloth in this video: th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html I hope it helps some. Thank you very much for watching. OXOX
SonnyNChad4Evar There is a part in the video where I show you how to take it off the loom one stitch at a time. :) It starts at about 5:38. I hope this helps.
I love your video and how happy you are!! :) I'm new to looming and I'm having a hard time with the "ends" of the cloth! I swear I've restarted about half a dozen times cuz it doesn't look right! LOL Can you give me some hints??
Always By Heart Designs Hi Always By Heart Designs. Yay! I am so glad you are giving looming a try. It is such fun when you get the hang of it. :) Is it the "cast off" part that you are having trouble with? If it is than I have another video where I show how to cast off. Maybe seeing it done in a different setting may help? Fast forward to exactly the 5 minute mark on this video to see how I cast off on that project... th-cam.com/video/lMwKjcmoBoI/w-d-xo.html It is the same way that I end my dish cloths. It took practice for me to do the "cast off'" too. I had a tendency to knit everything too tight when I first started and that left me with a lopsided dish rag. LOL I guess it never mattered to me if they were lopsided because they were just dish cloths and I used them to practice and learn how to loom. It gives them character. Haha Let me know if this helps. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment and question. :)
EasyMeWorld YAY You replied!!! Thanks bunches! Dishcloths are on my list...so far Ive made hats for my boys and scarves and fingerless gloves!! Im on my way over to subscribe to you! You're way too awesome
Always By Heart Designs Aww thank you so much for subscribing. :) I have a whole bag full of gifts that I have loomed for Christmas gifts. hehe Yes, we have a FB page. You can share photos of your projects there too. :) I would love to see your fingerless gloves. I have not made them on my loom yet. So cool. After Christmas I would like to make a pair of leg warmers for myself. The fun never ends. hehe
teresa tart I will remember that for the next "cast off" in a tutorial. Thank you SO much for taking the time to give me your feedback. It is very helpful to hear what would improve my future videos. :)
I’ve watched a few of the dish cloth tutorials- I have to say I really loved yours - simple to understand and see / thank you!
Great demonstration of the stitches on the loom - close and clear. Well done!
Thank you Evelyn. :)
I used this pattern on the kb all in one loom. I love it. Just a little tighter stitch. I have found the dishcloth to stretch not shrink. I have made 11 on the all in one. Now I am trying double thread on round loom. I am new to looming and I am really enjoying it. I have made 2 hats and scarfs. I had a ladies gathering at my house and gave each guest a dish cloth.

I just returned from Walmart. They had Cotton Peaches and Cream on clearance for $2.00 a bolt. Regularly priced for $7.97. It's green, white and light blue and says cone ivy league. Will make great dish cloths! I couldn't resist buying two bolts at $2.00 each! :) I had just seen it on your video yesterday and was excited to find some on clearance today! :) Love making pretty things! And love a deal! Thanks for the video! Love all of your videos!

Q
Thanks for the video. I will be attempting a dish cloth soon. I'm gonna try this yarn called scrubby its for making dish cloths. I think I should use 2 strands. when I'm done I will post a picture. thanks foe explaining so well and taking your time. some tutorials they assume everyone knows more than they do. I will be subscribing to your channel thanks!
+carrie snelgrove I would LOVE to see how it turns out. I have never made one with scrubby yarn. It sounds amazing! That is a GREAT idea. I can't wait to see it. Thank you SO much for watching and subscribing. That means so much to me. :) OXOX

What state are you from? I live in Ohio. You sound like you live in Pennsylvania or Ohio.
Hope you had a wonderful holiday. Happy New Year!
+Liz Feick Hi Liz. THANK YOU! It makes me so happy that you enjoy the looming videos. YAY! We have great husbands. hehe Looms are a wonderful gift. We live in Tennessee. I grew up in NJ so that is probably why I sound like I live in the north east. LOL Our holidays were wonderful. It is hard to believe that it is over. I look forward to making new projects this year after my long vacation. :) You will LOVE the new dishcloth that I came up with. They are easy to make and everyone that I made them for thinks they are awesome. :) I am working on making myself some more now. haha I hope you had a great vacation with your family too. Thanks for watching and it is nice to meet you. OXOX
Your videos are fantastic, creative, cheerful, unique, and extraordinary. I actually made two dishcloths because your videos are amazing. I will try to post it on your facebook page if I can. remember, you are awesome. Keep up the great work.
Thanks, I'm going to give this a go. I tried knitting with needles but just cant get the hang of it. I do crochet. But decided to also learn to knit on my loom. I'm doing a 10 stitch blank but it's going slowly. I though a dish cloth might go faster.
Thank you so much for making this video! It looks so easy and I will be making them soon. I'm new at looming too and I already made 3 hats, and 2 ear warmers :)
shannon nielsen That is awesome Shannon! You are doing GREAT. I think looming is so addictive. haha I always have my looms and yarn by me when I am sitting on the couch. I even take them to the dentist office. LOL Thank you for watching. I am so glad you are enjoying your looms. :)
+EasyMeWorld Thank you for your comment. it is a lot fun and relaxing. What color peaches and cream yarn is in the video? I cant seem to find those colors anywhere. It is very addictive. I love to loom. I made a dish cloth recently, but didnt turn as well as I wanted, but I will get better with practice. I did the pine cone owl today. I also made the snow flake ornaments and the small loom pumpkins. That was fun! I love all your videos. Keep posting :)
Thank you
Very nice video..
Thanks for the great video ...I love the Loom a hat also !
I’ve tried knitting over and over, I never get very far. I got my loom yesterday and made a dish cloth using your instruction. Thank you so much 😊
Yay!! I am so happy to hear you made a dishcloth!! They are such fun to make. 😁♥️♥️♥️
I loved your video, and your happy go lucky personality. I have plastic looms all different brands and a knitting board. I want to learn to knit. I do crochet, but never had anyone to teach me to knit. I believe I learned a lot from your video I also love your hat! Last year I made hats and scarfs for my friends up north. But I stopped looming. I think I got tired of hats and scarfs. It was all I knew how to do at the time. Now its time for dish cloths and socks. That should keep me busy.Do you find that your dish cloths are too lose when knitted ob the plastic loom? I bought the knitting gauge so I'd have a smaller gauge. I wanted to see how the dish cloth was done. Let me know about the gauge. I am using 100% cotton. Thanks!
+Claire Bacchi Hi Claire. It has been a while since I made a video and I have been itching to get back at it. haha I have another dish cloth that I came up with before Christmas last year and I am pretty excited to share it with everyone because they are AWESOME to use. I want to make it my next project. I LOVE making easy stuff on my looms that do not take a lot of counting. It makes it nice for when I am sitting around the fire talking to friends, watching TV or just day dreaming and I never worry if I missed count. LOL I made them to give as Christmas gifts and everyone loves them. :) I use the Peaches and Cream cotton string that you get on the big spools at Walmart. I am not sure about the gauge. It is 100% cotton. These dish cloths are pretty loose but I like them because they dry great and I do not have a problem with them having odors. :) I hope this helps a little. I am so excited that you are getting back into looming and you have a blast with it. Thank you SO much for watching and commenting. OXOX
Happy new year to you and yours and thank you for the clear, concise instruction, very easy to follow along. God bless. 💙💜😀😌
+Sharon Mathewson Thank you so much Sharon. :) Love and blessings. OXOX
Hi I'm loving your videos!!!! Thanks to your lessons I've made my very first dish towel!!! And am now on my second, I was wondering if u have ever worked with an infinity loom (figure 8 loom for blankets) or a sock loom? Both were given to me for Christmas but I haven't worked up the courage to try them yet. Plz continue to post your looming videos THEY ARE WONDERFUL!!
I liked your red & black hat...any chance you could do a tutorial on it?
deetles98 That is a great idea. :) You are the first one to ask about the red and black hat. I will put it on my list of future videos.Thank you very much.
I like how did you make your second project with a solid black on the back tks
I love your video you should try to make a video of crocheting you're dishcloths
Is there a difference in doing purl a row, knit a row. VS purl a row, ewrap a row?
Valerie Hofmann I love questions like this because it always helps ME learn too. I am going to do some research and dig deeper to find out. I am still new to looming myself and this was one of my first projects so I picked something really simple to make. One of my next steps needs to be to learn how to read a pattern. Thank you SO much for the question. You are awesome. :)
Thank you for the video. I have a hard time with the flat knitting.
+Knit Witch Thank you Knit Witch. I am so happy that this video is a help. Yay! :)
How do i loom that hat you did the with the long look too it?i love it
Hi tammy. I am so glad you like my favorite hat. :) This video inspired me when I made that hat: th-cam.com/video/Oqe36ghs-PU/w-d-xo.html She did not make her hat long but I followed her directions and just kept going with it until it was super long. Then I made a big pompom for the end. I hope it helps you make one too. :) Have fun and thanks for watching.
How to make the long blue and white hat: th-cam.com/video/k0aKZ_08GIg/w-d-xo.html Thank you for your suggestion. :)
you are so much fun!! subbing!
This is a great video!! I'm sure u get this a lot.. But u are so cheerful and friendly.. Great to watch! Ur vids are always great..! :) and btw I LOVE that blue and white hat! It's sooo cute!! I crochet but now I kinda wanna loom!! :)
Hi Cassie. Thank you SO much for the lovely comment. That makes me smile. :) Isn't the blue and white hat just so awesomely cute? I never could figure out why my boys always laughed or rolled their eyes when I wore it. hahaha They obviously don't know STYLE. hahaha You will LOVE making things on a loom if you like to crochet. It is so relaxing to do. I always have a loom in my hands these days. :) Fun stuff. Thank you for watching.
Thank you Cassie for your support and encouragement to make the hat video. :) th-cam.com/video/k0aKZ_08GIg/w-d-xo.html
I love how enthusiastic you are! It sure helps a lot when I'm having fun while learning how to loom things. :)
You are AWESOME!!! Thank you for making these tutorials. I can actually see what you are doing close up.
Do you use 1 strand or 2 strands want to make one if I get it want to make them as pocket prayers shawls and some dish clothes for the holidays. I enjoy your videos made your Pumpkins and Snowman already. Thanks
+OwlnLoomnCrazy katzbeck You can make it with 1 or 2 strands. It depends on how thick you want it to be. I made mine with one strand because it dries faster with one strand. I am so excited that you made the pumpkin and snowman. YAY!! Thank you SO much. OXOX
wow! thanks! by the way that scarf was super pretty! can you please make a tutorial? i would be so happy!
Jr Lutz Thank you so much Jr Lutz. :) I am so happy you like my scarf. hehe I put your awesome suggestion on my list of video ideas. :)
Hi there, great video as always. I have made one of these and bought several large and small spools of this cotton string to make more. I want to try making your other wash cloth from another video too. I have a question....at the beginning of this video you showed the first and second hats you made.....both are great. I love the black and dark red on the second one. Do you recall what yarn you used? Size, brand, exact color ( the red) and if it was two strands? I love the colors and the matching scarf. Keep up the good work. :)
Very cool! I like it! :D
Hi Even tho this is an old video, it is the one I learned to make a dish cloth. But I have a question. I have made 3 dish cloths and they all stretch on 3 sides but not on the 4th side. What am I doing wrong, I try not to wrap too tight. Is it that I am still wrapping them too tight? Appreciate your reply
Hi! Can you share your pattern for the long blue and white hat? It is so adorable! Thanks for a great channel!
Hi Mary. Thank you so much. :) I was so excited about my funky hat. HAHA My sister in law asked me to make a hat like mine for her Christmas gift so I know that I will have to make another one soon. Maybe I can see if I can create a video AND pattern. I kind of made it up because I usually play things by ear. hehe It may be fun to do it though. It would be different. I think my brain rebels against patterns. haha That is why you don't see many videos with patterns on my channel. Even this one really isn't a pattern. I don't count the rows. It fits my hand though. LOL
Thank you so much for your support and encouragement. :) Here is the hat video: th-cam.com/video/k0aKZ_08GIg/w-d-xo.html
EasyMeWorld are You still doing videos you are great I have learned so much from you
Hey Joni can you do crocheting video of dishclothes
I use sponges not cloths for washing dishes. Are these cloths soft enough for body washing? If not is there any yarn you recommend?
How long do you do ur scarf
Hey Joni how do you tighten your stitches ?
I enjoy this video
Jane Clermont Thank you very much Jane. :)
+EasyMeWorld can you make a video of how to Knit I know how I'm just very rusty right now I haven't done it in a long time and LOL lost my crocheting book that I was crocheting with right now back to knitting until I can go back to the store to buy more crocheting hooks
+EasyMeWorld can you make a video on how to knit with knitting needles I know you love doing on your looms I do to and I love it if you could please
Just wondered if your were to say sell those loom knit dish cloths, say what would be a easy price to put like on a set of 4 per set ?? Thanks for any advice on cotton items . sincercly toni g. : )
MYSTICFROG43 Hi Toni! Great to see you. :) I am not really sure about what I would sell them for. I never was great at pricing things. hehe I will take a wild guess though... maybe $3? I do not go to many craft fairs so that is just a random guess. LOL Thanks for the question. It is a great idea to sell them.
totally inspired! used two strands. just tweeted you my photo! :)
+jennifer g. lapan Thank you SO much for sharing your picture with us jennifer. YAY! I am so happy that you made one. You are awesome! OXOX
you and this video and your positive attitude made this dream come true. it's a christmas gift for grandma!
EasyMeWorld.....I've loomed for a while now. Not as good as you. :) But I haven't tried new things either...just kinda keep doing the same things. I started this one, and, I just started, but I have a few rows done. Mine are much looser than yours are shown. I tighten them up to while I'm doing it. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
+Breann Bhatti Hi Breann. This pattern is a loose knit so you are probably not doing anything wrong at all. :) I like it because the dishcloth is easy to dry out and has less smell. I recently came up with another pattern for a dishcloth and it is even better than this one. It is thicker but easy to dry out like this one is. I made several of them for Christmas gifts this year. I plan to make a video on how to make the new style of dish cloth. Fun stuff and easy too!! hehe If you would like this pattern thicker than you can use 2 strands together. Looming is so much fun and so easy to change the patterns. It is such fun to experiment with different stitches too. :) Thank you SO much for watching and for taking the time to comment. OXOX
Love this idea too. That scarf was lovely, is there a tutorial for that one? :)
+beccalou72 Thank you very much beccalou. :) I will have to make a video on how to make the scarf.
Hey I love ur videos!!! I just started looming a couple of weeks ago so I'm a big time rookie !!!!! Ur videos are really helpful !!!! I have problems taking m y finished work of the loom every time I take it off my stitches come undone . What am I doing wrong?
Hi Sheila. I am not sure what you may be doing wrong. Here is another really easy dish cloth that you might want to try. th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html It is pretty easy to finish the ends and everyone seems to love this dish cloth. Don't give up. You will have a blast learning how to loom. :) Thank you for giving this project a try. OXOX
Sheila McDowell Are you binding off? That is crucial. Happy looming.
+Pepperann I finaly figured out what I did wrong . Thanks for asking.
I made some more dish cloths and one side in the middle curves in . Am I doing something wrong or is it supose to look like that ?
Do you put your dishcloths that you make it the dryer
Yes. When they are all worn-out I make new ones. 😁
what size yearn did you use? Mine turned out not as tight looking as yours
+ssarahkat999 I am not sure of the size. It is a cotton string. I like my dish rags when they are not tightly woven because it gives them plenty of space to breathe and that keeps them from stinking. hehe You can do it with 2 cotton strings and it might give it more thickness. Experiment with it to make it how you like it best. :) Thanks so much for the comment and for watching. OXOX
I have wanted to try knitting, but I want to use this style the loom. I think it will be better on my hands than trying to mange two needles and yarn. I am getting a loom and yarn and off I go.
where can i buy the loom knitting tools in philippines...
I got mine on the internet. Do a search for "Knifty Knitter Looms". :) Thank you for watching.
here in States ;they are at Jo Ann, hobby lobby, Michaels, & Walmart it not you can order on line from those stores
i appreciate u helping me in regards to the loom project.You inspire me with ur enthusiasm. Keep up the good work. i am looking forward to seeing more of ur videos on the Looms.Your instructions were very simple to understand. Thanks again
Your steps were great, followed them completely, however my cast off row is tight and my first row is super loose. I don't have a square/rectangular dishcloth whatsoever. I suppose just practice or is there a hint somewhere? Thanks. :)
I had the same thing happen when I first started making my dish cloths on the loom. I should have mentioned that in the video but I forgot. Ooops. :) It does take practice to do it a bit looser. Once you get the hang of it, they will be perfect. My daughter also told me that she had to practice doing it looser too. So hang in there and be aware of making the last row loose. You can still use the dish cloth you made even if it is not square/rectangular. :) Thank you SO much for your response. I am very happy you are making dish cloths. Yay!!
How do you make the long pointy hat that’s blue and white
I made a video. It is on my main TH-cam page. 😊♥️
Did you ever make a video for your Red and Black Hat and Scarf ?
Have. You ever done the. 10 peg loom afgain. Stich. New. To looming. Have. Nice. Day
Hi, since in all the videos you say to share your ideas so I was wondering if u could show how to arm knit a soft and cuddly blanket! It's ok if it takes you a few weeks to do. Thanks! Bye
Hi Teresa. Thank you so much for your suggestion. I was just talking about arm knitting with my daughter yesterday. I actually want to give it a try. I really never did it but I have some cool ideas in my head about what to use for yarn. Not sure if they will work yet. hehe I also would LOVE to make a blanket. I am not sure when I will be able to make a video. I still have to learn how to do it and then practice. :) I love the idea. Thanks again.
I absolutely love your video! I am new to looming and usually crochet my dishcloths, but like you, am having fun learning new things with the loom and wanted to try a dishcloth. Your instructions are so clear and easy to follow, I love that you even include the type of yarn you use, and of course cheerful personality really makes it even more fun to learn.
I recently made a scarf that turned out alright, but I was wondering what yarn you used for your red and black scarf that you made to go with your second hat?
I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos!
isis2516 Aww thank you so much isis. :) Looming is so much fun! hehe I knew it would be but I didn't know that I would have THIS much fun. :D I have made a lot of scarves by knitting or crocheting them but I was super curious about looming a scarf so I made the red scarf. I really like it and it is so warm. My boys always "borrow" it and I have to look for it when I want to wear it. haha The yarn that I used for the scarf was the Red Heart 4 ply yarn. I found it on sale at Walmart after Christmas. I am so glad that you enjoy looming as much as I do. :D I can't wait to come up with more projects. Thanks for watching. :)
Awesome, thank you for the reply!! I'm going to go hunt down some of the yarn, make a scarf, then try your adorable long hat you posted a video for. Thank you for all the great videos you post and for replying to comments and questions!!!
Do u knit n purl is all?
Hey do you have to do the purl stitch
Hi Sue. Here is another dish cloth that may be easier for you. th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html It is a great dish cloth and you can make it on a round loom too. It is actually my favorite dish cloth pattern. :) Have fun. OXOX
i just finished my dishcloth, did everything like you said to do, my only problem is it is so tight when i did the cast off that it is out of shape. what did i do wrong? it is very lose all the rest of the cloth but that cast off brings it all in and its not a rectangle
deborah575vt I am so happy you are making a dish cloth. :) Double check the stitches on your cast off row to make sure you are doing it correctly. It took me several tries to get first dish cloths right too. It may be that all you have to do is practice. Once you get the hang of it, you will be hooked. hehe I hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
I really enjoyed your video and everything went great until the cast off.. did it over and over again.. but i think i made my mistake by having the last row as a pearl row and casting from there, kept losing stiches. I then knitted a row and boom came off just fine. . not sure if that would make a difference or not but everything looks good now. Thanks again.
Cecilia Sweete Thank you SO much Cecilia. I love your tip. I really appreciate you sharing. You are awesome. I am glad you are making the dish cloths. YAY! :)
suggestion, I use a metal or plastic straw and put my yarn in it and then go in and out. So fast.
well ain't you just sweeter'n peaches n cream. thank you, you made this video simple and clear, i appreciate it.
Please more :)
Hey EasyMeWould can you please make a video of how to knit I would really like that from one of your videos I tried to search a video with another person and tried to help someone else out that made a comment of how to make dishcloths I gave them what you always said about dishcloths a suggestion about it for them to use peaches and cream and they said the comment was rude have no idea what they meant I was giving them your suggestion of what to use for coasters and dishcloths what kind of yarn to use I would very much appreciate it and if you could do that for me I would continue watching your videos and no one else's because you were very nice I wish I knew how to meet you in person me and you would have a blast crocheting and knitting together
I was wondering if you can make a dish cloth ON THE LOOM but diagonae?
+Robin Blake I have never tried it. That sounds like a good idea and it would be very unique. I will have to give that a try. Thanks for the idea. :)
what size loom did you knit for your first hat
When I first started out, the largest loom I had was a 36 peg loom. That is exactly what fit my head. :) When I made hats for my son in law, I had to get a 40 peg loom. I had fun practicing with my hats before I made gifts for him though. LOL Thanks a bunch for watching. OXOX
How much shrinkage happens with yours? I don't think I want any the size you make, but I don't want any itty bitty ones from them coming out of the wash shrunk.
Amanda David I do not notice a lot of shrinkage with my dish clothes but they seem to be pretty stretchy. hehe You can change the size to whatever you think would be best by using less pegs and less rows. It is fun to experiment with different sizes to find what you think works best. I actually have all kinds of different sizes that I use. I tend to like the larger ones best because they wipe up more water and messes when I wipe everything down. :) I hope this helps.
EasyMeWorld Thanks :-) Oh and do you ever use any other yarn type other than the Peaches & Cream?
I'm doing something wrong..... I've made my ehooks and doubled the end. when I start to stitch I loose it, it's not holding the knot.... what am I doing wrong?
Hi Jen. I made another Dishcloth video if you want to try it and see if it is easier. I LOVE the double layer dishcloth in this video: th-cam.com/video/5chbz9zmT7w/w-d-xo.html I hope it helps some. Thank you very much for watching. OXOX
how do you take it off the loom?
SonnyNChad4Evar There is a part in the video where I show you how to take it off the loom one stitch at a time. :) It starts at about 5:38. I hope this helps.
i did the hats Orange and black
Thats the one, the long stocking hat. I want to make
I don't see new videos. Do you no longer post videos on TH-cam?
I love your video and how happy you are!! :)
I'm new to looming and I'm having a hard time with the "ends" of the cloth! I swear I've restarted about half a dozen times cuz it doesn't look right! LOL Can you give me some hints??
Always By Heart Designs Hi Always By Heart Designs. Yay! I am so glad you are giving looming a try. It is such fun when you get the hang of it. :) Is it the "cast off" part that you are having trouble with? If it is than I have another video where I show how to cast off. Maybe seeing it done in a different setting may help? Fast forward to exactly the 5 minute mark on this video to see how I cast off on that project... th-cam.com/video/lMwKjcmoBoI/w-d-xo.html It is the same way that I end my dish cloths. It took practice for me to do the "cast off'" too. I had a tendency to knit everything too tight when I first started and that left me with a lopsided dish rag. LOL I guess it never mattered to me if they were lopsided because they were just dish cloths and I used them to practice and learn how to loom. It gives them character. Haha Let me know if this helps. Thank you so much for your wonderful comment and question. :)
EasyMeWorld YAY You replied!!! Thanks bunches! Dishcloths are on my list...so far Ive made hats for my boys and scarves and fingerless gloves!! Im on my way over to subscribe to you! You're way too awesome
Always By Heart Designs Aww thank you so much for subscribing. :) I have a whole bag full of gifts that I have loomed for Christmas gifts. hehe Yes, we have a FB page. You can share photos of your projects there too. :) I would love to see your fingerless gloves. I have not made them on my loom yet. So cool. After Christmas I would like to make a pair of leg warmers for myself. The fun never ends. hehe
EasyMeWorld Sweet! I'll go look you up! I have one pair of fingerless gloves made so far!
I wish you had shown more of taking it off the loom Just as I was getting it, it went to ;you having it all off
teresa tart I will remember that for the next "cast off" in a tutorial. Thank you SO much for taking the time to give me your feedback. It is very helpful to hear what would improve my future videos. :)
What is the measurements for this dish cloth? 😃 😃 😃
is it too thin?
Phyllis Pham I don't think so. If knitted dishcloths are thick, they never dry out and get stinky!
