If you like the video please consider sharing it and purchasing the pattern - it helps a lot 💛 Thank YOU : loomahat.store
I am a beginner using the loom and this tutorial is FANTASTIC! I have watched many clips on youtube and none have helped me as much as yours. Thank you!
Hi Denise. I'm very new to loom knitting. Your videos are the only ones that are detailed and made so easy & fun to do....you make learning fun. thanks so much!!
I’m using this video to make Christmas gifts this year! My grandma used to make these all the time. I’m very excited about this project. Thank you
Just wanted to let you know that I am just learning how to knit and out of the dozens of videos I have watched yours is the easiest to follow and looks better. Some of the beginner projects just look like yarn put together but this actually looks really good. Thankyou
Georgette Lowery Thanks for the Thank You Georgette - very much appreciated .. so glad I could help.
I am a neebie to loom knitting. This was absolutely the most informative video that I've viewed so far. Your pace, tone, and way of presenting the information was very effective, and pleasant. The illustration of the garter stitch and the tip on measuring your square with the thread was very enlightening. I will look on the website and hopefully find tons more of your videos. I will be referring back to this video many more times in the future. Thanks!!!
TJ Myers THANK YOU TJ for taking the time to write you comment ! I very much appreciate it.
denise
Oh, my stars - I have been looking for an explanation of how to do these beautifully finished edges for ever, and here it is! I so look forward to trying all of these stitches and projects you've posted and thank you so much for the clear, concise, SIMPLE instructions for everything!!!!
Carlyn Carter
Carlyn Carter, me too 👍
Carlyn Carter Denise is the go-to loom teacher.
I bought a set of looms years ago with the hopes of making blankets and scarfs. Well after trying a few times it just wasn't happening so I put them all away in a drawer. A few days ago I stumbled on your channel and gave the worry worm a shot. OMG I'm loom kitting again. 1million thanks for making this so much easier for me.
Excellent directions without bogging video down. Easy to write down what I needed! EXCELLENT tip about cutting yarn to project length & tying to loom. Makes you want to slap your forehead and wonder why you never thought of that. Just what you to know, I watch a lot of TH-cam and am grateful for the help that is provided but I have never felt compelled to comment before.
Debra - thank you for taking from your precious time to leave me awesome feedback. I really appreciate it.
Thank you again for this video. Its been a long time since I've loomed and being able to rewatch your videos is such a blessing as a reminder of how to do things I forgot. Thank you again for being such a kind teacher. Much love💜
Love that addition of the yarn to measure length. Genius!
Thank you Rafaela for taking the time to leave your awesome commentary. Very much appreciated !
Hi thankyou for this tutorial. I not iced you didn't say whether your last row should be knit or purl and it seemed Iended up on the left instead of right. Also a couple of times when I wanted to see what you were doing when you were knitting off that bit would be out of frame. I couldn't really follow the mechanism for adding the extra stitch when casting of either. Thank you though, I have learnt how to purl.
Thank YOU Milly.. for letting me know my video was helpful.
Awesome video. I'm going to make lots of different color squares and sew them into a patch work blanket. Can't wait on the sewing squares together video. I enjoy your looming videos. Keep them coming.
Awsome, self explanatory, what I like the most is the clearness on every explanation given. Keep up the good work. I leraned withe only one time watching this video. Many thanks
Hey Becca, thanks for taking the time to give me some feed back - Much appreciated. Sorry about the off-frame spots but I do repeat myself A LOT during the video - It's a habit of mine - so trust me that you've seen every step at least once...
As far as looming the squares together not sure - You can "Sew" the squares together... I promise to make a video on that one soon.. so stay tuned : )
Hi Denise, do you have this done in a lighter colored yarn as I find seeing anything on the casting off especially really hard to see with such a dark color.
Thank you for your help as I'm new at using the the rould Loom April
I'm fixin to go give this a try, would love to make a bunch of squares and then put them together for a blanket. Looking forward to seeing the video on how to seam them together. Thanks you for a great tutorial
I don't comment often but this video is so helpful! Thank you!
+Krissy W Thank you for the Thank you Krissy . Very much appreciated !
Thank you for your tutorials. You're an excellent teacher.
Thank YOU for the Thank you Francine , I really appreciate it !
+Kate G The extra long tail is used to stitch the squares together like for blankets - for a washcloth no need for long tails make it short and when finished just weave in the tail
oh my gosh! freakin genius!! soo happy I found your channel! Thank you!
Thank YOU for the Thank you Josephine , I really freakin appreciate it ! 😀😊
Great ideas! Thank you for making this video. I am trying to use my looms more and more because they are relaxing and fun, and this really helped me.
Thanks Peggy for taking the time to leave this nice comment.. I really REALLY appreciate it.
I agree, loom knitting is relaxing. It is truly close to fail-proof and its very addictive. I have mild ADD.. this is the only knitting I can handle well.
I love the measuring tip!!!!! Brilliant! Thank you! 💙👍
Thank YOU for the Thank you Lori, I really appreciate it !
Great video. For some reason, I cant seem to get the hang of the first and last pegs.
I love your videos. This is how I make my dishcloths. The only thing that I changed is that I always purl to the left so I can hold the yarn with my left hand and hold the hook with my right. It is a lot quicker for me that way. Try it and see what you think. Merry Christmas. Love you!
Thank you Liz !!! - Hey have you tried the Waffle Stitch Dishcloth yet ? th-cam.com/video/82hlTHQ5XHw/w-d-xo.html
LoomaHat.com, no I haven't. I am just about to watch that video. I am in a group at church called the Knit Wits. We make projects for charity. I am loving my looms!
Very nice, Thank you for making and posting this. It was educational. My only complaint is that some of the more complicated stitches were off camera (either too high or too low). I was unable to see where you grabbed a bit of yarn to put in the 'extra' stitches while casting off.
Hi Elizabeth.. sorry about that - these were some of my first videos and I made some booboos. The extra stitch is a crochet single stitch just to add length so that the knitting wouldn't look shorter on the top when I cast-off. Hope that helps. denise
instructions were amazing i finally learned how to do a square on round loom and your explanation was awesome but im the kinda person that needs to see and couldnt because kept going out of frame. I do ok w explanation but i also need to see. This is by far the best tutorial for me because i hav difficulty following along w just verbal does the other tutorial u mentioned hav full frame? Just asking not trying to b mean if it comes off like that i soooo apologize
This is by far my favorite video. I just started loom knitting in January. And this was the most useful video I found in the beginning. So, as a beginner, I found this video to be awesome! Now 3 months later, I'm still coming back to make sure I'm doing it right.
I'd also like to add the number of rows it takes me. Using worsted weight (medium 4) yarn, it takes approximately 45 rows. Give or take a couple. Working on a new blanket, and it's helpful to know how many rows. (plus the counter helps me. If I stop during the project, I can look at what row I finished last and know if I need to knit or purl).
Rambling...great video!
So much easy when we follow you from the begining .....Thank you ;)
I have just discovered loom knitting and I really appreciate this video, you explain it so well . Thank you :) Linda
Linda, thank you sooooooo much for your kind words I really appreciate it.
I'm not getting the bind off right. Do you have a video with lighter yarn?
What a genius idea with the string!!!
That measuring yarn EXCELLENT idea. Thanx
can you connect these squares to make a big blanket. you do a very good ob on your videos very easy to learn. Thanks
Yes Shelly you can connect them - use the mattress stitch : th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=mattress+stitch+knitting
I brought in those 2 slip loops at either end and got a much tighter end after the bind off. Thanks!
Thanks for the Thanks 😊❤️
Do you have a video explaining how to put these squares to make the blanket?
Hi I don't know how to do crochet? Can I do basic bind off?
Can I make a rug?
would that exact pattern you show in the video work on thinner yarn? i want to use superwash wool, gauge: 23 stitches = 10 cm... also do you have a video showing how to knit/sew the squares together?? i want to use this pattern to make a patchwork blanket..
ps. please excuse my english, im using google translate too translate all the knitting terms:P
Ingerztyle No the pattern will not be exact your square would turn out thinner and smaller. You would have to knit what is call a swatch (a sample) for the exact formula to make an 8 inch square.
LoomaHat.com ok i'll just try it out then;) thanks :)
Hello, I just have to say you do an excellent job on your videos. You are very informative. I was just wondering if you have a video on how to knit these squares together to make a blanket. I hope you have a blessed thanksgiving and keep up the great work.
Thanks for the Thanks A Cherne! I don't have a video to knit the square but this is the same technique: th-cam.com/video/nF-XvjbxCGo/w-d-xo.html
thank you for the video!
i was wondering how many pegs do you think it would take to make a 5 by 5 square
Can you do a tutorial on how to do the basket weave ?
I love how you explain how to do things.
jjudy jones Thank YOU JJudy !!!
Great video, so easy to follow. Will refer back to it many times and look forward to more.
Many thanks for your video! I want to knit a square blanket, but didn't know how to get the edges all the same. Thanks to you, I do now :0)
I tried and TRIED to find a nice, simple pattern for looming a litle dishclothe... and NOTHING... I was surprised. I should have known to come to you first! :D Also thought this would work well for when I work on my blanket, thought of doing squares with my 'excess yarn' like my little bits; that normally I wouldn't know what to use it for :D Thanks again! Your awesome!!!!
+Toni Hovatter Toni - Glad I could help - here my favorite use for scrap yarn: www.loomahat.com/comfort-dolls/
Can you please do the very end of this again? The camera doesn't get all of what you do. Also,could you tell how to seam the squares together. Thanks for this video!!
I have watched tons of these videos but these are the easiest to follow. You do close ups which make it so easy to see what you are doing. I have crocheted for 20 years and tried regular knitting but found it frustrating. Loom knitting looks fun and a better way for someone that wants to knit but has crocheted for to long.
What do u use these squares for. They look very nice. I would use them for wash cloths
Could you do this with one yarn instead of two?
Did you try this, if yes, did it work?
This is a great video, because you're a very patient teacher! The only thing for me was I had to refer to another video in order to learn how to finish off; your fingers go out of frame! I actually kept moving my head in order to see lol...which was silly...
righteousgroove I am working out a pattern on a different loom for a square and will be repeating the some crochet cast-off. Should be ready in a week or so.
Same here! I kept trying to peer under the top edge of the frame, and feeling very silly!
Joys of being Jerri Hi Jerri - when i say e-wrap I mean the fact that you wrap the peg instead of for instance placing the yarn flat on the peg when I go to knit. In other words you e-wrap the peg in order to knit... Hope that helps
I normally never comment on videos; however, I have used two tutorials you have done and you do such a great job at explaining everything. I actually followed this tutorial and made a baby blanket. It came out awesome the only thing I had trouble with was when I was finishing the blanket. It came out really tight and I don't know if that can be fixed
+Sasha Rodriguez What method did you use to finish the blanket ?
+Sasha Rodriguez Sorry for the delay Sasha - there is a better way to bind-off: www.loomahat.com/modified-basic-bind-off/
+LoomaHat.com awesome!!! I am having to redo the end cause I pulled the yarn and popped but this will give me a better way to end it. Thank you for replying with a different suggestion
@loomahat Would you ever post a video on how to loom knit a small prayer square with a cross in the middle? Please 🙏🏻
I wonder if this would work with blanket yarn I have some chunky soft gifted to me
hi, love your videos.
do you have a video on how to sew the squares together to make a blanket? I'm going to take a shot at this.
thank you.
+patti henry Not yet Patti - but do a search for the mattress stitch - which is your best bet - Let me know how it goes - share the pics when you're done :)
+LoomaHat.com thank you. also, is there a alternate way to take the square off the loom? I'm not understanding with the crochet hook. I've never used one, lol.
Yes - here is one: www.loomahat.com/modified-basic-bind-off/
Hi I've made a few off loom knitting lovely stuff thanks you for sharing 💞.I'm just wondering tho I would like to make a runner for a dining room table do you no someone who does I hope you didn't mind me asking you 💞xx
hi, I love this video. I want to use cotton yarn is it OK to use one strand of yarn or should I use 2?
+Michelle Fitchett Depends on the weight of the yarn and the type of loom you own - if your loom looks like mine you can use one but it's best to use 2 strands
can you show us how do a blanket on round loom and long one how many sure we do
Hi Lucy thanks for asking - that's the next project - stay tuned after a hat I hope to put up tonight
I want to know if I could use this pattern to make a sweater? Patchwork Sweater? What do you Reccomend
HEY with tha square may be bigger we can make bags purses ? what you think about that?
I will make a video on seaming the squares soon. Stay tuned.
denise
Hi! Could you link the video where you seam them together? Sorry if I’ve missed it! Thank you for your tutorials!!!
Could u make turn this into a dishcloths using cotton yarn
You said you were asked to leave a 24 inch tail at the end when you were taking off the square. I want to make squares to practice different stitches, and then I'd eventually like to put them together to make an afghan or blanket. Do I need this extra long tail? Also, if I just want to make a square by itself (say, for a wash cloth), what do I do with the trail end of the yarn?
hey.thanks for the video. i will def try. i just want to know what can i use the square for around the house? can i possibly use them im the kitchen for hot pot base? anh other suggestions? i want to bring this to use too. thank a lot
I love your video, You make it so simple. I want to make a baby blanket with 6 inch squares, how many pegs would I use for that?
I am so appreciative of this video as I have been trying too find online how to make the 8” squares for the blanket charity in Michigan. Denise I am able to catch everything the casting off with the crochet hook. The wool is dark and you go off camera and I can’t really figure it out. Have you done any recent videos that would have captured that a little better? I am at the end of my 8” square but I am afraid to try to do that which I am unsure of and destroy the square that I have already unravelled several times. 🤪Thank you !
Could u use cotton and make a dishcloth
Will you be making another tutorial on this and how to connect the squares? Thanks
Fabulous. Just what I was looking for. Your instructions are so easy to follow. Denice, what size for a regular size adult bed.
Have you made a video on how to make a sleeveless vest for a 2-4 yr old. When I get to the hole to start to decrease the stitch it is not turning out I'm doing something wrong
this is a video that I have really needed what a find thank you very much
Why do you go to the right, when you cast on? Or is it just personal preference? I always want to go to the left. Thanks
So it's 1 row of e-wrap and 1 row of purl right?
I am having a hard time watching you do the last part
Hello! Wondering if there is a video on how to connect the squares together for baby blankets!! Thank you!
Lilly Gastineau Use the mattress stitch to join squares together.. do a TH-cam search - lots to choose from
Is there a video that shows how to out the squares together?I want to make a baby blanket for my cousin.
Elizabeth St Martin Use the mattress stitch to join squares together.. do a TH-cam search - lots to choose from
Very good video. Thanks. How do you carry yarn when perling?
Thanks for the video, really helped me. There's another way to end the square?
Thanks your video was a big help to get me started with loom knitting.
Heya, Denise! Looking for your expert advice on how to proceed, and I dot see a video here for my question yet (or my search terms are wrong, more likely!). I'm converting a nice Lopi pattern that is a simple flat panel with two sleeves attached, in today's modern style of cardigans. While it requires counting and marking (for which your videos have been simp,y PRICELESS) the biggest hurdle, for me, has been finding a simple, well-explained way in which to leave stitches unknotted so as to form a sleeve opening (for a sleeve also done on a round loom, yay!) The pattern tells me where to start the armhole and how many stitches long the opening should be, but I just can't figure out what it's called - when starting the armhole - or what I should do, and how to resume the stitches going across e hole again once the opening is as big as I need it. As always, thank you for your insightful info and I hope you can help, O Favoured Loom Knitting Guru!
Hi Carlyn - THANK YOU for ALLLLLLLLLLLL the kind words I so very much appreciate every one. - Thanks for the questions - I don't have any video that will help you but ... I don't know if you're familiar with Mumtazm - But she does a lot of wearable like sweaters and such - take a looksey at her channel. She's very good about answering questions. th-cam.com/users/Mumtazmvideos - hope that helps
if I want to make it the biggest I can with the loom, do I go all the way on every peg without going on circle, just going back and forth??
Hi Denise, Thank You for the videos you make. I'm still new to loom knitting and your videos help a great deal. May I know how I would join these squares to put together for a baby blanket? Thanks in advance!!!
Rachel - you can use the mattress stitch: th-cam.com/video/NvAS-HCWk9I/w-d-xo.html
From 13:00 on .... I can't see what you are doing to knit it off .... I have no crochet experience ... do you have another video with the same knit off ?
Juanita I don't use this cast-off anymore - here is what I do now www.loomahat.com/modified-basic-bind-off/
Thank you ! :)
LoomaHat.com I tried the other video and my bind off ended up smaller. I followed how you did it but it didn't work
Could you post the link to the newer video with the cast off? I finally was able to get it (yay!) And I'm so nervous about casting off wrong and messing it up lol
What a fab video i have already made a scarf on a loom band board and am looking for my first project to do on my proper knitting looms this looks like it is it . My question is it looks like you doubled the yarn so do i need two balls of the same colour for each square ? Thanks
Oooh I love the hack for measuring 8 inches!!!
Is it possible to make these squares and attach as a throw pillow? Have you ever seen it done? If I'm using filler pillows I'm guessing the knitted square needs to be bigger. Or is there a better way to loom knit for a throw pillow? Thank you!
What type of yarn do you need to use for this project?
I hope I can make such perfect squares like you do.
Sandra Van Asch You can... practice makes perfect.. and another little secret is to tighten your loose ends - here is a video th-cam.com/video/27xAJKBv37c/w-d-xo.html
Great video. But as a beginner with no experience as a knitter or crocheter, I am looking for a video that shows all procedures throughout. Sometimes in this video the loom and work accidently drifts outside of the frame. Plus the yarn is a little too dark for me to clearly see the stitches. Can you suggest a video for a rank beginner like me?
So sorry - I will try doing another video on finishing the square. But try watching the last few minutes again. I repeat myself a lot and you should be able to pick up the technique.
Do you have a video of how to do a square but just doing regular plain basic stitches?
If you only use the knit stitch the square will curl
Can we use just 1 strand of yarn?
What gauge loom? What number yarn? Does #4 yarn work?
Well I have to restart because apparently I didn't watch your video long enough and I needed around the first and last pegs LOL I'm getting there thank you for a great video
thank you for this video. I have made a few just for wash cloths and hot pad.
Thank you for the Thank you Jamie !
Excellent teaching approach.
I need to make a 6” square. Do you have instructions on that for the different size?
What stitch are u using please
And how many pegs please
Is there a video that shows how to sew together to make an afghan?
