Looming With Love

Wow. I just got my two new looms. I got a Extra Fine Gauge Sock loom and a Lepersy bandage loom. I started working on the lerpersy bandage loom and when I get it long enough I will take pictures and I will be starting on the sock loom as soon as I go and get some markers for it.

I’ll keep you posted on whats looming on these looms

This is to help all of you out there that have different size bootie looms.

The pattern here for the booties in the baby set patterns was made with a 20 peg loom. I have also used a 18 peg loom too. I had a help question about using a 15 peg loom so here is what you need to do for the heel using different looms. Every thing else will stay the same except the heel.
