 | Loom Knitting Pattern Book: 38 Easy, No-Needle Designs for All Loom Knitters (No-Needle Knits) by Isela Phelps
Buy new: $16.47 / Used from: $5.51 From the talented Isela and many contributing designers. The family patterns are nice but are not exclusively for Knifty Knitters; smaller gauge looms are more the focus of this book. I must sadly warn that women's and men's plus sizes are noticeably scarce.

 | Learn New Stitches on Circle Looms by Anne Bipes
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $9.71 This unique book introduces new stitch patterns and techniques. It is very clearly written, and uses great projects to practice on. I have several that I will be using EXACTLY as written because they are so nice.

 | American Knitter's Round Knitting Loom Instructional How To Knit DVD
This was VERY helful to watch someone make several projects. There is even a needle knitting bonus video. This video does not teach flat knit or purl stitches, only basic e-wrap (twisted knit). But is well done and just the thing if you don't have anyone to show you how. But if you have made a hat and scarf, you're too advanced already for this DVD.

 | Knifty Knitter Long Loom Set w/Hook & Yarn Needle, 4/Pkg.
Buy new: $27.99 The beginners best purchase along with a set of Loom Clips. You can do larger projects than the round loom set, and also double knit in a variety of stitch formations. Yes, even tubes and hats. And using thinner yarns for a tighter stitch is possible.
|
 | Knifty Knitter 4.5x8.5 Spool Loom w/Hook & Yarn Needle: Pink
Buy new: $5.99 This little loom is very addictive. It makes I-cord like your granny might have taught you (not mine). But it also makes little tubes great for trims and embellishments, or braided scarves.
|
 | Rectangular Long Loom
This board has the same larger gauge like the round looms, so it is better for the larger weight yarns than the "long loom" set. I like that there is an anchor peg at each end.
|
 | Knifty Knitter Straw Loom
Buy new: $2.99 I haven't gotten this yet, but I have seen some mighty interesting designs online.

Buy new: $9.32 / Used from: $6.98 This book really will answer all your crochet questions. And you'll have some when you start loom knitting. I got it when learning crochet and it is priceless. Highly recommended.

 | The Knitting Answer Book: Solutions to Every Problem You'll Ever Face; Answers to Every Question You'll Ever Ask by Margaret Radcliffe
Buy new: $9.72 / Used from: $8.67 Loom knitting is still knitting (ignore the "purists" who think it too easy). You will be using regular knitting stitches and techniques like increasing and decreasing. The more knowledge you have about needle knitting, the easier it will be to progress in loom knitting.

 | The Quick and Easy Loom Knitting Set by Tessa Dennison
Buy used from: $14.79 Ah! A book with a loom included. A smaller gauge round loom, similar to the KK round purple Adult Hat Loom. The book has lots of great techniques, and 30 beautiful patterns. There is even gorgeous yarn for a scarf. A bit limited on new stitches, but what they cover is well done and varied nicely. I use this loom for most hats for myself.

 | Knitting Wheel Fashions (Leisure Arts #4372) by Charlene G. Finiello
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $2.08 This book has nice patterns for the round looms using readily available yarns. I already had some on them on hand! I like what was done with them and will use this book a lot.
|
 | More Knitting Wheel Fashions (Leisure Arts #4411) by Kathy Norris
Buy new: $11.95 / Used from: $10.99 I want to make all but one pattern from this book! Nice new stitches to learn and great projects. Lovin' it.
|
 | Provo Craft Knifty Knitter Loom Clips
Buy new: $3.99 You use these clips to make your long looms (the oval ones) any amount of pegs you need. Makes knitted increases and decreases a LOT easier. I anticipate this being a sold out everywhere.
