Ashford Weaving Loom

Here is a picture of my Knitting Loom. The name is not accurate as you do not knit on it.  It is called a knitting loom because it folds in half and can be transported easily in a bag, similar to knitting. So far, I have made a small sampler, a bookmark and my latest full scale project is a fine scarf for myself.


Knitter's Loom

Fine Woven Cloth
The scarf is made from 3ply wool which I bought for machine knitting but have not as yet used. I thought it would be good for using up odd bits of yarn as you can add different textured yarns.
I am still getting to grips with it, but it is quite fun.

Hi Andrea,
The knitting Loom looks like fun and as much as I love machine knitting I would love to have a go on one of these. Where did you get it from and would you recommend it?
Thanks Polly

Hi Polly
Thanks for your comment. You inspired me to get blogging again. I have put some more pictures of my loom on my blog, if you can view it. Yes, I would recommend it - but may be get a wider loom.
Any more questions - just get in touch.

Best
Andrea
