I really like these hooded cowls but not really a fan of the super bulky yarn look…is there a way to modify these patterns for my all in one loom? ie… for this pattern you just cast on for 20 stitches working in a round…what might that be for a a-i-o loom?
Probably the entire 106 pegs.
So cute!
Was this done with 2 strands of yarn or 1?
One strand.
If anyone tries this on the All In One loom, please leave a comment about your results and any tweaks you might have had to make to the pattern. I would love to try this sometime. I like the chunky look, but also the finer stitches. It would be fun to have an alternate way to make this.
Thanks for the new and very cute pattern! I am considering making this with less zippy’s and adding ears for a “bear” hood for a child. 🙂
Can’t find the corners anywhere in stores and $3 shipping for one package of corners is ridiculous.
Eric, the corners are not available in stores. $3 shipping is the cheapest method we can ship them.
