It's the Loom Knitting Bible

Loom Knitting Primer-A Beginner's Guide to Knitting on a Loom

This is one of the best books about looming that I have ever seen. It should be listed as a must for loomers, a Bible for loomers, those experienced or beginnners. Precise and easy how-to instructions from stitches to cast-ons, binding off and many of the must knows. I couldn't put it down and already I have finished one of the 30+ projects, looking forward to doing most or all of them. Very straighforward instructions and project turned out very professional looking instead of beginner basic. This book is now one of my treasures.

Excellent starter book makes you wanting more SOON!!

This book is a primer, as the title says, and it is worth every cent. It covers all the basics, including a lot of basics other books don't even touch on. As an experienced knitter is still has things to offer me and her style of writing makes you want to order part two immediately. Hope we can see more patterns and advice from this author, it is helping us all get more than hats out of our knitting looms.

Must-have book for Loom Knitters!!

This book has everything. It educates the reader on the various looms available and what you can make with them, discusses the different kinds of yarn you can use, and introduces knitting terms and equipment needed for loom knitting. For the beginning loomer it assumes no previous knowledge, and explains step-by-step how to use your loom, from casting on to binding off and everything in-between, with clear illustrations throughout. For the more advanced loomer, how to do stitches other than the e-stitch are explained, and then used in projects from simple to advanced. If you can only buy one book on loom knitting, make it this one!!

great resource for a burgeoning art!

Isela Phelps did a fabulous job of putting all the information about knitting boards and looms (or wheels) in a clear, easy-to-read guide. The illustrations are great. This book should be the first book you acquire should you become interested in this art.
