Readaeer Round Knitting Loom Set:) I am very pleased with the 4 knitting hoops; the 4 "clover type" pom-pom makers; the needle and the hook that came in the nice see thru plastic carry case with a one page hoop knitting instruction. I especially like that all the pegs were glued in place for added strength. It has been many years since I seen such great quality!.
I wrapped sports wrap around hook handle for my arthritic hand comfort and now it is custom fit for me and hours later with no pain. I have been having great fun with instant pleasure at all the projects I am doing!
There are a few basics to remember: #1 You can always take the yarn off the pegs, unwrap the project yarn and start over if it does not look right!
#2 Relax! Go slow and wrap the pegs slowly and loosely till you get the hang of how the yarn works on the pegs. #3 Smile! Your imagination is your only limit! Make hats; socks; slippers; scarves; blankets; lap covers; aprons; ear wraps; mittens; gloves; sweaters; toys....????
Try watching You Tube Videos on Loom Knitting and Pom-Pom making.
These Pom-Pom makers are considered "clover type", which are very easy to use. I looked it up on you tube...start with one by looking it over, put it on table in front of you with long white area positioned at 12 and 6 on a clock. (It looks like an alien star ship.) Under those ends are hinges and next to the hinges are 2 tabs by the top and 2 tabs by the bottom. Slowly pull outward. You will see that there is a metal pin holding the 2 halves together. Look at the colored half moons next to each other, you will be wrapping yarn around each double half moon starting under and over the top (going round and round filling in the culvert opening without going past the flat edges, stop, cut yarn, repeat on other double half) Now squeeze both sides together to look like a circle again. Take a scissor following between both halves top edges and cut (carefully set aside). Cut 12" piece of yarn (or ? size) and wrap between both sides (or ships). Pull and tie off by wrapping a couple of times and a couple of knots. Gently pull apart from the center. Voila! You have a great pom-pom to add to your knitting projects.
Also, visit your local library for books on loom knitting, they have LOTS!

I love love love loom knitting. After years of trying to knit, crochet, etc and getting uneven ends I finally discovered loom knitting. I've made hats, throws, socks, and am looking to learn how to make sweaters and other stuff. Very easy to learn, easy to do. I highly recommend this for anyone who loves knitting but simply can't get those needles to work right.

I'd recommend this for kids learning to or wanting to knit too. Any child over the age of 7 or 8 can learn to loom knit with supervision.

These looms are so easy to use with rounded tops and no slots to hold the yarn in place which imo is actually a hindrance. These are very easy for my 7 yo to use and the hats come out beautiful. I almost took away a star because there are no instructions for the pompom makers but I found instructions on YouTube so I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Great beginner kit! Sturdy and well made with a great variety of sizes.

I would give this four and a half stars. This is definitely a good set for the price, and seems every bit as sturdy as the higher priced Knifty kit. I'm now working some stitches on it, and having no trouble.

Where I see a bit of a problem is in the finish of this item. It is obviously a very different kind of plastic. It doesn't have any give, and seems like it will last just as long. But it has a glossy finish on it that was most likely put on after making, which is bubbling and pooling in some places, and on a couple of the pegs I noticed large bubbles at the base of the peg, which I was able to break using the hook tool. Will this layer peel off over time and with use? If so, will it render the loom useless, it not having a smooth surface for the yarn to glide over? Remains to be seen.
On the whole, happy with this, but if the appearance is a deal breaker for you, it's not ugly, but you may find yourself wondering how long it will last.
