Welcome to my blogiversary loom-a-long! I will be posting this a few rows at a time so keep checking back for more rows. Make sure you click on subscribe in the comments so you'll be emailed when I add more rows.
Gauge is not important for this stitch pattern, but the sample was done on the Kiss regular modular loom on first setting.
Yarn: I used a variegated cotton yarn for this. Peaches n Creme Shaded Brown. You can use variegated or solid for this in any color. Post a comment and let me know what color you're using. You might consider double stranded if working on the KK Looms.
I will have a drawing for finished projects emailed to me by Sunday midnight. Leave a comment here too in case my spam folder eats the email ;).

Bind Off (BO) using the super stretchy bind off (http://yarngear.com/looms/tips.htm - scroll down to the bottom). Note: if you are using the Kiss loom for this bind-off don't wrap the yarn behind the pins (it will make it really loose and you'll have to cinch it up a bit), just do the bind-off just like you would on a Knifty Knitter at the front of the pegs.
Email me pictures when you have it done to be entered in another drawing!

These wristers were made using the Regular Peg Kiss Loom at with no washers. Knit on 24 pegs as a flat panel then seamed. You can wear these with the scalloped edge toward your wrist or your arm. Enjoy!
Here is my Sailboat Baby Blanket. This pattern can be made into many things other than the featured blanket. Incorporate it into a sweater or tote bag, or make it into a pillow.
