Honeycomb Knit on a Long Loom

Honeycomb knit is a beautiful and stretchy knit that is ideal in blankets and scarves. It is created by alternating the direction of the double ribbed stitch to make a "honeycomb" pattern.

1. Secure the yarn to the anchor peg.
2. E-wrap the first bottom peg.
3. Pull yarn up to the peg directly above it and e-wrap.
4. Pull yarn to the peg directly beside and e-wrap. 
5. Pull yarn down to the peg directly below and e-wrap.
6. Pull yarn to the peg directly beside and e-wrap.
   
   
   
   
7. Repeat steps 3-7 until you've reached the end of the loom.
8. For the second wrap, trace the path of the yarn back to the beginning peg. Trace the path exactly as it appears in the previous row.
9. Knit off.
10. Continue wrapping and knitting until you have completed 7 rows.

1. Reverse the direction of the boxes, so that the yarn follows the opposite path, crossing from peg to peg where there was an empty space in the previous row.
2.  Knit seven rows with the yarn in the opposite path.
3. Return to the original path of the yarn and knit 7 rows. Continue until the knit reaches the desired length.  

Creating Ribbed Knit on a Long Loom

You can use any of the Knifty Knitter long looms, or rectangle loom, to create ribbed knit. You can also create ribbed knit with a round loom, but the method is different.

1. Secure yarn to the anchor peg.
2. E-wrap the first bottom peg.
3. Pull yarn to peg on opposite side of the loom just above it and E-wrap.
4. E-wrap the peg directly next to it.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the loom is fully wrapped.
6. Turn at the last peg and wrap in reverse. The path of the yarn should follow the previous path of the yarn identically. 
7. After the loom has been wrapped twice, knit off.

How to Panel Knit on a Long Loom or a Round Loom

The secret to knitting a flat panel on either type of loom is to turn and wrap back to the starting peg, rather than in a circular motion around the loom.

1. Secure the yarn to the anchor peg.
2. E-Wrap 10 pegs.
3. Turn at the last peg and wrap back to the beginning peg. (Each peg will be ewrapped 2 times.)
4. Knit off (lift bottom loop over the top loop.)
5. Wrap each peg once more and knit off again repeating until the knit is the desired length.
