Large Gauge Looms

Well built, great set and shipping was fast

I have never been able to knit. I taught myself to crochet years and years ago but could never figure out how to handle two needles at a time! I make hats for my local Chemo Buddies group but it takes a while to crochet up a hat until I found an old knitting loom in some of my mother craft items. I went on you tube and watched a few videos and decided to buy some looms from Amazon. These KB looms sets are awesome and do much better made than the cheaper brands. I saw where some people don’t like them because they don’t have the side peg like the cheaper looms do but I solved that problem by sticking a sticker under one of the pegs to use as a starting point. I actually bought all three sets of KB looms and I’m really enjoying them. I can now whip up hats in no time at all!

Other large gauge loom sets the biggest loom is usually 3/4" gauge. I wanted a set that was all 5/8" gauge and that's exactly what this is. It's sturdy and very easy to use. I have almost every loom that KB sells. Great products, great prices! I definitely recommend this set.

Here are the Pros and cons. Honest thoughts. Pros: + Great quality. + Comes in various sizes. + Many knitting options. + Great gift for knitters. Please make sure this is the loom size you want. I see no cons and the person that got this gift was happy. Thanks for your time and I hope this review was helpful.

These things are damn-near perfect to me. The only reason it doesn’t get 5/5 stars is because there’s no anchor peg. Even if you’re not a beginner, you can still appreciate the convenience of an anchor peg on a loom. Regardless, the build is very nice and the extra pegs for replacement is excellent but I can’t imagine how replacing a broken peg would work if the peg snapped in a hole and cannot be grabbed in order to pull it out.

Wanted the ability to make a watch cap in wool and brown camo. Since I don’t knit this is very simple to use and fairly quick. Problem solved. This is the third kit I have bought due to the first two getting broken in shipping. They could add a bit of nylon in the material composition to make it a touch sturdier.

With the purchase of this loom set I now enjoy two different gauge size sets. Important when knitting a tighter stitch. The pegs are well made and smooth to the fingers. I had tried and returned a set due to rough tip pegs as they tent to hurt the fingers, I recommend this product and will look into more products from KB,

The pegs are closer together than some brands so the knit is a smaller gauge which is good for stocking caps. The only improvement would be to add a peg for tying on and anchoring the yarn.
