I enjoy many crafts and cooking. My goal is to journal things "made by Mimi"

My first afghan
This is my first afghan made on a loom. It was made on a 60-inch S-loom from Cindwoodcrafts. It was made using Lionbrand Homespun yarn. Its VERY soft and warm.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL....what stitch are you using on this afghan and the one you are working on now? I'm just at the beginning of one and have been using the zig zag stitch. Thinking of doing a different stitch each time I switch colors. THANKS!
That was my first attempt at making an afghan on a loom or using an infinity loom! lol I was pretty proud of it. I just used the basic stockinette stitch. The one I am doing now I was doing the zig zag stitch and alternating with the stockinette. I confused myself and frogged it. I am just doing it in the stockinette now. My next one I have a few stitches in mind for!
I have your blog bookmarked and always looking to see what everyone is doing. You do wonderful work!!
