I always seem to have a hard time with the drawstring cast as described in the tutorials. I came up with a different way to do it quite by accident. I attach the working yarn with a slip knot to the anchor peg, I then wrap every other peg around the loom, then wrap the working yarn around all the pegs, you now have two loops on every other peg, now I lift the bottom loops over on the pegs with two loops and continue on with the pattern. Pictures below show how I do it, as soon as I get some extra time I will be doing a video of how it is done.

The new Wonder Sock Loom is back it is lighter in weight, and the same tight gauge as the other sock looms.

All their looms look so impressive that I wish that I could afford to buy them all, but being on fixed income that's not likely to happen any time soon. Go take a look at the site leave Isela a comment telling her that you saw it here! You could win this absolutely wonderful new loom.
