I bought this pair to round out my set of KB 3/8" round looms (80, 72, 64 peg) which brings the full five loom set to about $40. I'll probably make much more use of this 56 peg (baby hats and panels) than I will of the 24 peg but I can see the 24 peg being useful to me for 3/8' gauge swatches. The 24 peg loom makes a panel about the same size as a KK 12 peg loom all other things being equal. I truly-truly love that they've embossed the gauge and peg count on the underside. Great idea! This needs to be on all looms. It is truly great that more looms outside of the 5/8" and 3/4" gauges are coming to mass market and KB seems to be leading the way. Pros: * small gauge (3/8") for DK (3) and Worsted (4) yarns makes a very nice knit without the bulk of thicker yarns. * peg design knits over very easily. Much better than some other's crochet hook type pegs. * the plastic is thin enough to be light in the hands but thick enough to be sturdy. * considerably less expensive than custom looms Cons: * new loomers might find the 3/8" spacing much harder to work than 5/8" or 3/4" looms. This is probably not a good starter/learner size. * smaller gauge means more pegs to work for the same sized project as a larger gauge. More pegs is more time to completion. * the plastic is light. A very tight loom knitter might risk breaking pegs. Tips: * u-wrap and true-knit stitches are easier than e-wrap on a small gauge if you have thick fingers. Using a wrapping aid such as a straw can make e-wrap much more comfortable. * DK and light Worsted (3 and 4) yarns work beautifully. Bulky and thicker yarn will be a challenge. Thinner yarns like sock weight produce a bit of a netting-like stitch.
I have bought this brand of looms before I needed a smaller gauge for a project that I’m working on I’m super excited to start working on it. These are very well-made very smooth edges no bumps with other lumen brands I’ve had to send them down so the urine doesn’t catch these look very amazing very soft plastic feels good in your hand can’t wait to start my project

Very nice knitting loom
I really like these knitting looms... seem smoother than the other brands I've found at the craft stores and I like the gauge #.

Quality knitting looms!!
Lovely set of knitting looms! My mother and I enjoy using them very much. I made this baby hat & booties set for my Granddaughter with them ❤

Good for finer thinner yarn.
It makes a tighter knit than my other brand does. It took a little getting used to but makes a nice hat.

Affordability
Sturdness of the loom in my hands, pegs are long

perfect for socks,hats and gloves and mittens
size and guage was perfect for making socks and fingerless gloves and they arrived as advertised. I may have to order a second set
