Question 1

Are the pegs fixed or do they come out?

Accepted Answer

The pegs come out.

Question 2

What ages is this for?

Accepted Answer

I bought this for my 13 year old and have found my 12 year old using it too. It is not complicated to use. I think it would work for most ages over 6 as long as the interest is there. Obviously the knitted items made by the older kids might be of better quality, but it’s fun for all ages.

Question 3

What is the recommended yarn to use with your looms?

Accepted Answer

Bulky yarns work best with these looms. I just finished my first project on the next-to-the largest loom. I used Red Lion Homespun Thick and Quick super bulky yarn. I made a thick and warm beanie hat that fits both my husband and me. If you want a looser knit, maybe for a scarf that can drape, you can use a thinner yarn. For a hat to match that scarf, you can use the same thinner yarn and double it. (Pull it from 2 skeins at the same time.) One suggestion, though, is to use a bulky yarn that's evenly twisted for your first project, if you've never used a loom before.

Question 4

What are the gauges for each loom. A gauge can be measured from the middle of one peg to the middle of the next peg. 1/2, 3/8, 5/8, 3/4??
