So after some tests and changes and tests and changes, the final version of the EAD Endless Barrel Knitting Loom is done. (File Release Tomorrow)
I made a simple “How To” video on how it works and what you need to work with. I hope everyone likes it! Was fun to create and actually a lot of fun to work with. I am constantly surprised by how much can be done with such a simple Loom.
I have knitted on looms, on straight needles, on circular needles, and on DPNs, as well as with a knitting machine. I am fascinated with this process and look forward to seeing how it was made.
Absolutely brilliant! So I guess the patent is functional now? That’s great!
If you make a version 2.0 of the video, you might want to pull back a bit for the setup—I couldn’t tell what you were doing with the end of the yarn at 4:28, it was out of camera view. Then at the very beginning of the stitching, an extreme closeup would be helpful. It’s very hard to see which thread you are catching with the crochet hook. But as you say, once you get going it does look quite simple.
Not only is this thing extremely inventive, it is also quite beautiful. Another one knocked out of the park!
That is really impressive! I watched the video and was able to follow along easily. I crochet but never was able to knit…I do believe it would be able to with this.
I just gave the rigid heddle loom to my granddaughter you designed this week for her birthday. She was very excited.
