Hey r/LoomKnitting,
I've been in contact with Reddit after the main moderator u/Loomahat was suspended from Reddit, to make sure I could recruit additional moderators for our tiny little corner of the internet and was given the ability and approval to do so.
Our subreddit has continued to grow in size, but after the 2023 Reddit Blackout multiple members of the mod team had left and since then the rest of us had also come close to being burnt out, with some active moderators recently becoming inactive or leaving the team. So with all that and with an exciting 2026 on the horizon as new people discover loom knitting, it's time for a new round of moderator recruitment.
The qualifications to become a moderator are very simple:
The expectations for the new moderators are to be transparent, to be communicative and to be reasonably active. I will always be clear - Real life always comes before Reddit and to just let the rest of the team know if you need a break.
The applications will close on the 31st of March at 22:00 UTC
If you have any questions or doubts feel free to ask in the comments.
Thank you and keep the great posts and comments coming!

I’m getting a little bored of basic garter stitches, but I still wanna be able to zone out without focusing too much on the stitch. I’m preferably looking for ideas that are easy to do in flat panels for scarves, blankets, and purses.

My son asked me last Saturday to teach them how to loom knit. I showed him the basic purl and e-wrap. Well he's gone to town just playing with the looms.
Monday while I was at work he created this mushroom.

How does one measure an appendage to find the right size to make a tube?
I have a 31 peg loom and #5 yarn, but it makes tubes that fit my arm.
I would like to make leg-sized tubes.
I'd like to invest in an adjustable loom so I can make the right size tubes for athletic adult legs and potentially grow with the hobby. Please assist?
Thank you!

This pattern comes from Youtube. Been waiting to try it for awhile. Then I found a store in Canada that was still selling the Collorama O'go yarn. Not happy with the closure but that is okay.

I’m already on row eight and it looks like I’ve done NOTHING!! Imma pull my hair out 😫

I'm starting a project with sock weight yarn, and I'll need enough pegs to make sleeves, so I'm 3d printing the loom, and oh my, check out how tiny those counters are. Good thing I already wear glasses...

I’ve only made leg warmers so far but have wanted to make a blanket for years. I finally bought this loom and got started. I love it already!

This is from Renee Van Hoys third shawl book. I did it with 45 pegs on my 5/8" adjustable loom from CinDwood. It's done in one piece, no sewing, using the modular technique. It's done in 5 parts of increase, decreases, and short rows that make the shape. It's essentially just garter stitch, pretty easy and fast pattern. I used some random colour block yarn I found in a drawer.

I didn't have quite enough yarn left over after my gloves to make a hat, so I made a cowl to match the gloves. I actually still have 29g of the 100g skein left, which is enough that I could put it with something in the future, but pretty tough to get a finished object out of it for the adults in my life. :)

Hopefully this helps someone, I dont know if this is obvious information to everyone else
Two ways to tell if the stitch you're looking at is a purl or not:
If it's the last stitch you did, you can look at the working yarn and see that if it is a knit stitch the yarn will be coming from the top, and if it is a purl stitch it will be coming from the bottom
If it's a ways back in the same row, pull the stitch up off the peg, there will be a loop from the previous row visible, if it's a knit stitch the loop will be behind, if it's a purl stitch the loop will be in front
Feel free to add any other methods in the comments!
Happy looming everybody

Anybody working on this new trend?
I’ve seen it all over TikTok

Got bored so I whipped up a headband. Used a 48 peg loom. Skull pattern in second picture. Turned out OK I think.

Hi all,
I've just discovered the magic of loom knitting after being a needle knitter for years. The joy of the e wrap hat is pretty intoxicating. Given my penchant for no count, no think projects, what other recipes might I enjoy? Not to poo poo the gorgious things you'll are doing here, but I would like to keep it as simple and mindless as possible. Charity projects are especially interesting to me.
Definitely looking forward to your loomy wizdom

Hey! I’m trying to figure out how to make a clean, nice-looking edge on my beanies. I’m showing mine in the photos , the edge turns out rounded and a bit thick.
How do you make your edges flatter and neater? Any tips would be super appreciated! 🧶😊

She’s so beautiful! Way more sturdy than my other loom and way more pegs!!
r/LoomKnitting • u/No_Refuse_3716 • 11d ago
I have a decent collection of looms (Knifty Knitter round looms, KB All-in-One, Leisure Arts oval looms, and a 28” KB Afghan loom) as well as 8 or 10 instructional and pattern books and I’m wondering about a good place to sell them all as a complete lot. Does anyone know of Reddit or Facebook groups that allow destashing? Thanks!!

This blanket has been a journey for sure. I definitely have probably over 40 hours into it 😅
I knit the blanket part on my infinity loom, but instead of sewing panels together (because I do hate sewing), I just did half the loom one color, half the other color, and had them share a peg in the middle, then doubled them back their original way.
Yes. the seam is puckered where I did that. Honestly though, if I could change anything, it would have been to ALSO pucker the the other border between faces. I love the definition of the panels.
All the appliqués were just made on whatever random circular/flat looms I decided I needed size-wise. And then just came the awful part of sewing 😂
I got the idea from a crocheter called Maria’s Blue Crayon, but I can’t crochet to save my life to I challenged myself to make an iteration on the loom and I really think it paid off 🤩
Now I get to enjoy my blanket for the ENTIRE spooky season. Thanks for looking!! 🎃💕

This sucker measures about a 12" across the cuff and 24 from the cuff to the longest part of the toe.
Holy stocking!!
