Loom Knitting Tools

Loom Knitting Tools

Choose a loom pick, yarn guide or finishing needle

Identify the step you need help with, then compare the working end, your yarn and the room around the pegs.

Choose a guide for placing the yarn

Use a guide while wrapping the strand around the pegs. If your yarn bunches in the guide, test a shorter section by hand or compare another opening. The Savina two-tool set supplies a separate guide and pick, so you can use each at its own step.

Compare a single point with a double hook

A single pick moves one loop. A double hook can lift two if its points line up with the positions you are working. Knitting Board’s orange double hook places its points 3/8 inch apart. Check that dimension at the loops instead of matching the tool by color.

Choose a needle for finishing

Use a yarn needle when you need to weave in ends or follow a seam or closure in your pattern. Check whether the eye fits the strand and the needle passes through the fabric. Buy a pick-only pack if you already have a needle that works.

Guide questions

What if my original pick is missing but I have everything else?

Compare a single pick of the same working shape. A larger set is useful when you also need a yarn guide, finishing needles or tools for other projects.

Should I order a double hook because my loom has two rails?

Check the distance between the loops the pattern asks you to lift together. The two points have to line up with those positions.

How do I choose between a longer pick and a wider grip?

Compare tip reach at the pegs first, then check how you want to hold the handle. Overall length and grip width describe different parts of the tool.

Which accessory suits the job?

  1. Choose the wooden pick on its own when you already have a yarn guide. The two-tool set also gives you a separate guide for wrapping.

  2. The Darice single pick replaces a lost tool for individual loops. Compare the Knitting Board double hooks when you need to work two aligned loops together.

  3. The three-pick set gives you spares without repeating other supplies. The FTEVEN kit adds markers and different finishing needles for a kit you can carry together.
