Making a Half Hitch on the Knifty Knitter Loom

A half hitch is the term used to describe the loop used to secure the working yarn. You can use it when you want to stop and push the yarn down on the pegs, knit off, or when you need to leave your work for a while. To make a half hitch, you simple make a loop with the yarn. Turn it to ensure that the working yarn is toward you. Place the loop around the anchor peg on the end of the loom and pull it tight. That's it!

Multicolored Figure 8 Stitch Scarf on the 9.5 inch Knifty Knitter Loom


My latest Knifty Knitter project was this multicolored scarf done on the 9.5 inch long loom. I used the figure 8 stitch with one strand of Red Heart Super Saver yarn. I published the full instructions for the scarf patterns here:

The colors remind me of jelly beans. It looks good with a denim jacket.
