Loom Extender Projects
RUGS, all kinds of rugs, they are so easy and quick to make with the loom extenders. This is a rug made by weaving FABRIC STRIPS using the 28″ Knitting Board and the 10″ loom extenders. 2 X 3.5
Fabric strips make great rugs and home decor. This rug was made with 4 woven sections. You simply start with 4 yards of jersey knit fabric in 2 colors, cut them into 1″ strips with the grain of the material. Then weave the strips across the loom, wrapping 2 pins at a time and with one peg empty in between. Use the same color of fabric until you are ready for the stripe, then switch colors
If you use the 10″ Knitting Board, 10″ loom extenders you can make a rug by creating squares. This rug was made with 12 squares.

My New Project
Working on a new bag and thought I would share. I have been seriously getting into intarsia designing. It is alot of fun and doesn’t take gobbs of yarn. You can just draw out a design on graph paper and then follow line by line. It gets the creative juices really flowing because you can basically create anything. So here’s my Beagle Bag….
- Beagle Bag
the Tadpole-the baby. Newest member of knitting boards.
Our newest member of the knitting board family is only 6″ long and 1.5″ wide. It’s fine gauge which means the intarsia designs really come out looking great! The spacing between the pins is 5/16″ like the small gauge boards, but the 2 rows of pins are only 1″ apart. It’s so much fun to work with because you don’t even need to put it down-just turn your hand around to hook over the 2 sides. Portable?? Oh, yes, it can fit into your smaller handbags, and go with you everywhere. Fun projects? It comes with 7 easy projects just to get you going and more are coming to the free library every week. So, if you’re looking for a great gift for yourself, or maybe thinking ahead for the holidays, check out this cute little package.
It comes with a new! knit hook and pattern booklet with illustrated instructions and the 7 starter projects. Lots of Fun!
