Loom Knit Pig
Lion Brand® Martha Stewart CraftsTM/MC Extra Soft Wool Blend
GAUGE: Exact gauge is not essential to this project.
NOTES: 1. Follow loom manual instructions for SINGLE KNITTING for how to cast on, knit and bind off.
2. For Body and Legs, the loom is configured into a closed semi-circle for stability. All work will be done on 28-hole semi-circle piece. The curved shape of the semi-circle piece does not affect the shape of the finished knit fabric.
3. Loom can be configured into a variety of shapes to suit your preference. If desired, use additional loom pieces to configure loom into any shape, then knit back and forth in rows on just one side of loom.
