Skill level: Beginner

Provo Craft Tools Knifty Knitter Purple Rectangle Loom hook yarn needle Pom Pom Maker Other Supplies crochet hook 2 skeins (A) Red Heart Light and Lofty Pheasant 1 skein (B) Lion Brand Chunky USA Yukon Gold 1 skein (C) Lion Brand Chunky USA Desert Sand NOTE: The sample measures 64" x 8", not including the pom-poms.
Step 1: Using the main color of yarn, wrap 24 of the pegs on the purple loom. Wrap in the figure 8 pattern for the first row. Continue wrapping in the fashion stitch, or just go back and forth around the pegs.
Step 2: Knit 9 rows and then change the yarn to the B color. Knit 3 rows. When attaching the new color of yarn, tie the two colors together in a square knot, leaving tails of about 4".
Step 3: Change the yarn to the C color and knit 3 rows.
Step 4: Change back to the B color yarn and knit 3 rows.
Step 5: Change back to the A color of yarn and knit the middle of the scarf (114 rows, or the length that you would like).
Step 6: Reverse the pattern from the beginning end with the B and C colors. Finish with the A color yarn.
Step 7: Finish by adding 3 ½" wide pom-poms, and single crochet yarn string to attach the pom-poms to the ends of the scarf. The video below shows the fashion stitch being done. The loom here used is the blue long loom, not the rectangle loom, however the stitch is done in the same manner as the pattern above.

The video below shows how to make pom poms using the Knifty Knitter pom pom maker. If you do not have one, you can still use this method of wrapping on a round loom to get the same outcome.

Simple Single Panel Scarf for Beginners

Provo Craft Tools

• Knifty Knitter Round Loom (blue)
  
• yarn needle
• hook

Other Supplies

• 1 skein green 4-ply knitting worsted yarn
• 1 skein variegated green 4-ply or knitting worsted yarn
• crochet hook size G or H

 

Note: This is a very good project for a beginner to learn the basics of loom knitting. It is also a very good project for understanding how a flat panel can be knitted on a round loom. Flat panels do have a tendency to roll at the edges, and as you can see in the photo, both sides of the scarf are not the same.

Skill level: Beginner

Step 1: Using 2 strands of green yarn, wrap all the way around the loom to peg 24

Step 2:Using peg 24 as the turning peg, wrap back to the first peg, wrapping the opposite way. Knit the first row over the second row. (There will only be one wrap around peg 24 until you wrap back on the third row.)

Step 3: Turn and wrap again. Continue knitting and wrapping for 19 rows.

Step 4: Change one of the green yarns to the variegated yarn and knit seven rows.

Step 5: Change back to the green and knit seven rows.

Step 6: Change to variegated and knit approximately 47" to the other end of the scarf. Repeat the pattern going backwards to make the ends look alike.

Step 7: To remove from the loom, you may want to use a crochet hook. Lift the first loop from the peg and then life the second loop from the peg. Loosely crochet through these two loops and then take off the third loop and crochet through the two loops on the needle. Continue taking all of the loops from the loom and pull the yarn through the last loop. Pull tight and cut the yarn, leaving 4" or 5" to weave into the scarf.

Step 8: Cut 7" pieces of yarn to make fringe.

Braided Scarf for the Knifty Knitter Spool Loom

Barbie loomed this version of the braided scarf pattern in blue and white hues. What a fun scarf. 

Provo Craft Tools

• Knifty Knitter Spool Loom
• Knifty Knitter Pom-Pom and Tassel Maker
• loom hook
• yarn needle

This pattern was originally designed by Alicia Underwood and published on the Provo Craft website. 

Other Supplies

• 3 or 4 different skeins of yarn (your choice of color/style; use the Fun Fur, the regular knitting worsted yarn, or any other yarn)

Skill level: Beginner

Note: This is an easy project, and although it takes some time to make the tubes, it's worth it. To make the project go a little quicker, try using only 3 tubes instead of 5 for a scarf that isn't as bulky around the neck.

Step 1: Using the Spool Loom (the end with 5 pegs) and one strand of yarn, knit 5 tubes, each between 50" and 56" long. It is best if they are each different lengths.

Step 2: Hook the 5 tubes together as shown in the diagram (SEE DIAGRAM) and then braid them together. Then sew the tubes together using the yarn needle to ensure that they won't come undone.

Step 3: Using the Knifty Knitter Pom-Pom and Tassel Maker, put pom-poms on both ends of each tube. (The Fun Fur tube in this picture doesn't have pom-poms because Fun Fur doesn't make good pom-poms.) Original design by Alicia Underwood.
