I like to knit in winter. I don't like to have to count, so I just tend to make scarves. A couple of years ago I discovered knitting looms and I've had a lot of fun learning how to do different stitches. I especially like the fact that as long as I anchor the last stitch, I don't have to worry about my knitting coming off the loom. I always worried about everything sliding off the knitting needles during transport with regular knitting.
