Exellent tutorial
The large oval is part of a 2 loom set that is sold by Leisure Arts. It’s called the Ultimate Oval Loom Set. Knitting Board (KB) looms are also a great choice.
Thank you for this video!!
Very helpful tutorial! Thank you! It helped me figure out what I was doing wrong.
Thank you for your kind words. I just share what I have gathered from my own loom knitting journey. Lots of folks create tutorials to share their ideas so you simply need to find a technique that meets your specific needs. I love to experiment and try new patterns and techniques but I am not always pleased with the outcome. Don't get discouraged. It's only yarn and you can always pull it apart and try again! Happy knitting
Thank you for this
Very helpful thank you! Could you advise how I could turn this into a border for a large Afghan with e wrap for the main bulk of the blanke? Thanks!
The edges of an afghan made entirely of e wrap stitches is very prone to curling. This is one big advantage to the garter stitch. It absolutely does not curl! My favorite way to deal with this curling issue is to add a border around the edge of a project or to add stripes of a different type of stitch. Doing this this reduces the curling and adds visual interest. I very strongly encourage you to knit a test piece (even something the size of a pot holder gives you valuable feedback) so you can see if you like the way your it looks.
For a super simple project, I might do something like this :
1. Cast on and complete 10 garter ridges (One knit row followed by one purl row) That's would be 20 rows total
2. For this entire project all rows going from left to right would be done in e wrap knit stitches
3. For each row going from right to left you could skip (or slip) the first peg then purl 9 pegs - e wrap knit to the other end of the row - finish the row with 9 purl stitches and slip the last peg (I highly suggest that you mark the first 10 pegs and last 10 pegs so you don't forget to do this every single time!)
4. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you are almost to your desired length. the purl stitches along the edge with create a border down the side of your project
5. Complete 10 garter ridges (to form the bottom of your afghan border)
6. Bind off
NOTE: If you more substantial border just increase the number of rows at the top and bottom and the number of purl stitches along the sides. Something like 15 or 20 would work well and do even more to prevent curling.
If you want to know how to add stripes to this design, just send me an email and I will be happy to help you.
Happy knitting,

Super helpful! Thank you!
Love this video! I'm wondering, how do you do this on an S loom? Do you use the one single peg at the end of the "S" curve (in the middle where the 2 rows meet) as the starting/ending peg?
You can really start on any peg of the S loom. I suggest marking your starting peg with a Sharpie marker (which can be removed with regular rubbing alcohol). Just think of the S loom as a giant continuous oval that has just been kind of squashed down so it is more space efficient. If you are knitting an afghan or throw with the S loom, it can be almost 6 feet wide. Don't believe me - measure from one point on the loom all the way around (using a flexible tape measure) and ending where you began. You don't have to knit all the pegs. Use as few or as many as you like....I have an S loom but to be perfectly honest, it is not my favorite loom. The pegs and guage (space between the pegs) is wonderful but it is bulky to hold and large projects require you to constantly turn the loom. If this is what you have, give it a go and decide for yourself what you like. Happy knitting
Thank you! Yes I was more confused on whether to have the one peg as the starting peg or completely skip that peg all together. I want to do a knit/purl pattern so with skipping the beginning and ending peg with the purl stitch, i'm still trying to figure out how to get going correctly depending on which peg or pegs I'm using to start/end with.
Pick any peg you like as your starting point. Work around the loom until you reach your desired width - then turn around and knit back to where you began. If you wish to knit a wide piece that uses almost all of the pegs on the loom (like a blanket or throw), pick any peg as your starting peg and knit all the way around the loom. I suggest that you skip the last peg or two before you reach the peg where you starting to ensure that you don't connect your ends (which would make a tube). When you reach your last peg, turn around and knit back to your starting point. Don't get hung up on which peg you should start on. Any peg can be your starting point.
I just bought a loom and can't figure it out your making it look easy what are you using that u have the yarn in it looks like a pen I didn't get one with mine
An old ink pen (with the insides removed) is exactly what I am using! It is a homemade version of a "tensioner." You can purchase one (a company named BOYE makes one) at your local fabric or craft store if you prefer but this simple homemade version works great. I made an earlier video that shows how to use this product. I hope this information is helpful. Enjoy your loom knitting journey.

@@virginiacrawford7863 thank you and hopefully I can learn this
Can you show on how to cast on as well.. I seen alot of videos like this always starting off in the middle or the cast on would already be on which I am not familiar with.
There are many different methods of casting on but I have created a video showing the method that I generally prefer. It is not the easiest one but it does produce a lovely edge. I think it is worth a little extra effort to achieve a pleasing result. Check out the cast on video here. ruclips.net/video/0I9JS-K8WoY/видео.html
I have also created a video on how to cast off. I will go back and link both in the description that goes with this video. Hope you find this info useful
Can you do this chain stitch looking edge with other stitches too? I got stuff to make a temperature blanket and want to do a U-knit stitch for the whole blanket. Can I do that figure 8 stitch on the ends with that? Any input would be great! Thanks 😊
Yes! This is actually my favorite cast on method and I use it with lots of stitches. No need to add a "figure 8" stitch to the ends unless you just want to. I suggest doing a small practice piece maybe 8-10 stitches wide. This will give you an excellent idea of how the stitch you have chosen works with the cast on and bind off methods that I have demonstrated. It is really worth the effort...... Remember loom and yarn selection also play a major role in how your finished product will look. Happy knitting! I hope you have great success with your blanket project.
Oh, I just realized what you mean by "figure 8 stitch." Yes you can use the first and last pegs as turning pegs while using a U stitch. I apologize for not being entirely clear about that in my previous response. It makes all of the edges so neat and tidy. Just cast on as shown, use the first and last pegs as turning pegs and U wrap all of the stitches in between. That practice piece will definitely help you visualize what your finished product will look like. Best of luck.
@@virginiacrawford7863 thank you so much for responding! And I agree it does make the edges look a lot cleaner. I just didn't want to start doing it way and finding it wouldn't work with that stitch. Makes me feel a little more at ease. Can't wait to start, thank you again 😊
What do I do if I accidentally pull tight the new loop before putting it on the peg while in a purl row? Do I have to start over?
I am not entirely sure that I understand what you are asking but I will attempt to answer your question. If you pull the new loop before you have placed it on the peg, it will just pull completely out. This is no big deal. Simply place the working yarn (that's the yarn attached to your ball or skein of yarn) below the loop that is already on the peg and begin again by scooping up the working yarn to create a new loop....
If the old loop (the one that was on the peg before your created your new loop) should happen to come off of the peg AND you pull on the working yarn before placing a new loop on the peg, you will need to reach behind the peg and find the old loop and put it back on the peg. Then proceed as usual.
It is rarely necessary to start a project over because of a single stitch mistake. There are lots of ways to correct mistakes. You will learn some of these by trial and error as you continue to knit.
Where did you buy a loom as large as that? I want one.
It is the Leisure Arts Ultimate Oval Loom Set and it includes two looms along with a great pattern book and a loom hook. Right now it is available on Amazon and on Ebay. I apologize for taking so long to respond. I just saw your question. Please forgive me
What name and brand of loom are you using I broke my small one .
Leisure Arts Ultimate Oval Loom Knitting Set. The set contains two very nice looms. This is an older product but I see on the internet that a few places are still selling it. Happy knitting!
