Knitter's Loom I have to say that at first I thought this was a gimmick! A marketing ploy to con the unsuspecting knitter into thinking a totally new loom had been designed for them. After all, this "knitter's" loom is just like all the other Rigid Heddle Looms I've sold for years, right? Well, it turns out, not exactly! This loom folds and is very portable...it even comes with its own little sturdy bag. Perhaps the most appealing aspect to it is its "ease of use". For a knitter who has NEVER set up a loom before and might find the traditional rigid heddles a little intimidating outside of a class setting, this loom can be unpacked, warped and ready to weave in no time and with no hassle. Plus Rowena has put together a great little book with recipies so you don't even have to think about what you're doing! She's done all the planning so you don't need to have your calculator handy nor do you have to fuss with what types of yarns would work. A great way to get initiated ....for yourself or your child. And if you really get into it, you might want to move up to a wider rigid heddle or take a class on weaving on a floor loom. A great way to use up all your ends of yarns too! Price (includes a fabric carrying case, all the accessory tools you need to weave, instruction booklet and loom): $230
