When to choose it
When a throw pattern needs a wide single-knit cast-on, an S-shaped path brings a long row of working pegs into a shorter footprint. The 198 pegs are spaced 7/16 inch apart, so compare the pattern’s required count and spacing before looking at the overall frame size.
Knitting Board describes a maximum knitting width of five feet. Use that as a model specification and work a swatch in your own stitch and yarn before planning a blanket around it. If you prefer a straight working path or your pattern calls for joined strips, compare a straight board sized for one strip.

Questions about this product
Can I use fewer than all 198 pegs?
Use the count your flat-panel pattern calls for. Turn the work at the end of that row and return along the active pegs.
Does this listing include yarn?
This version lists the loom, hook and project instructions. Plan yarn quantities from the pattern you choose.
Why choose an S-shaped frame for a flat panel?
It folds the peg path into a more compact shape. The knitted piece can still be worked as a flat panel when the pattern calls for it.
