I have completed a new rug and this I would have to say is the jazziest one. I am quite happy with the way the fringe turned out - it just makes me smile. We will post the instuctions up for free if anyone would like to give it a try. I used Lion Brand, Wool Ease, only 5 skeins to complete whole rug and that is including fringe. The complete size is 20″x40″.

   Please tell me what board you used to complete this rug and what setting you used (how you set the board up).
   The rug is very pretty and I would like to make one.
   Thank you, Martha

   Hello!

   This rug is soo adorable!

   I downloaded your pattern from Lion Brand yarn. I just wanted to know which size spacer you used between the boards? 1/2″ or 1″?? I can’t seem to find it in the instructions.

   Thanks much!

   Hi, this rug was knit on the 28″ small gauge board with the standard 1/2″ spacer to keep the knit tighter. It makes a tougher knit for a rug. If it’s too tight, you may like to do it with the more open spacing or on the heavy duty boards. Pat

   Hello!
   Just want to say, I love your patterns, I went to this website called “You Knit What?” and not one of your patterns (or patterns that are similar looking) was in there. I think it’s because your stuff and dalooms.com look very professional and simple. No fads, no gimmicks and it is a relief to find such pretty stuff that CAN be knitted, timeless and useful.

   I was also wondering how do you drop stitch on a knitting board? I just learned how to do it on a normal loom I was just curious….

   Keep Up the great work!
