The truth is that we all feel stressed sometimes because of the infinite amount of our daily tasks. In addition, we often can’t stop thinking about the problems that are tormenting us. In the long run, this can cause anxiety or even depression.
In these moments, it is essential that you turn your attention to something else… for example, creating a pretty scarf!
Knitting is a really therapeutic hobby. Everyone who practices it says that it calms their anxiety and stress. In fact, the repetitive movement of your hands allows your mind to relax and stop focusing on issues that are making you anxious. Because you are focused on creating your project, you will be able to completely distract your mind.
Imagine the satisfaction of being able to turn your idea into something tangible and functional. You can then give your creations to the people you love and enjoy the smiles on their faces when they see that it is something you made with your own hands. Your creation will be a truly original gift, unique and inimitable!
This hobby will allow you to be productive, and not waste a second of your time. In fact, you can take your project with you and work on it at any time and anywhere.
The purpose of this book is to teach you how to knit in the easiest, fastest way, while having the most fun!

I’ve kind of fallen into a loom knitting rabbit hole lately. Long story short, I got burned out a needle knitting, so I figured loom knitting would be similar but not the same, and I am enjoying it, although it is slower than knitting with needles for sure (that might also be a good thing right now).

Most people start their loom knitting adventures making a hat (Marching North has a great basic beanie pattern that’s sized from preemies up to large adults, depending on the size of loom you use) or a scarf, where you just knit in rounds until you have a piece long enough to be a scarf, the sew the ends closed.

But there’s a lot more you can do, even as a person who is new to loom knitting, so let’s check out some more fun loom knitting patterns.

The first thing I made when I picked up a loom again was a couple of knit pumpkins. This is a super simple and fast project, and if you know me, you know I can’t get enough pumpkins (they are everywhere in my house this time of year!).

If you want to add a little cuteness to your loom knit hats for kids, check out the fruit hats from 5 Little Monsters. These don’t include a pattern but you can use your regular hat pattern and add the details.

Knitting looms are typically used in the round, which makes a stitch that looks like stockinette stitch, but you can also work flat and use a purl stitch to make fabric that looks like garter stitch. I want to try this garter stitch scarf from Loom a Hat (which I’m sure has lots more great projects you can try!).

And once you know how to purl you can also knit ribbing, so you can make projects like this loom knit coffee cup cozy from Good Knit Kisses. It reminds me of my Halloween coffee cup cozy, and since it’s knit flat you could duplicate stitch a face or anything else you want on there.)

Another easy flat knit project is this twisted headband from Marching North. It’s worked flat then joined into a loop, twisted and seamed. There are good photos in the post to show you what to do. And because it uses super bulky yarn it works up super fast.

Every time I went looking for loom knitting patterns I would run into this loom knit pickle pattern from One Little Project, so you have to see it, too. This would be a fun one if your family does a Christmas pickle ornament, though it’s worked with blanket yarn so it comes out pretty big.
