I love it!!!
This has been SUCH a cool tool to add to my craft arsenal. I am so glad I got it! It’s helping me understand the mechanics of hand knitting, so has improved my ability to fix mistakes with that technique as well. Now I can truly visualize how the pattern works and how each stitch interacts with each other.So far, I’ve made slipper socks, a shawl, and will try my hand at a sweater next. I love the versatility of this thing.The pegs are just the right size and shape of “groove” to allow you to move quickly without worrying about your project falling off and unraveling. Once I learned the trick of using a hollowed-out pen as a guide for my yarn, I was blown away by how fast I can work. This is the best part for me, as I’ve been known to work the same dang blanket for years when knitting by hand.The materials are very sturdy and I have zero worries about snapping a peg. I read a review that someone had that happen to them and I sincerely cannot understand how that would even be possible without really trying to break it. The hook that comes with it is also surprisingly strong! This is a way better value than the plastic looms and you can do so much with it once you get the hang of it.If you’re even thinking about it, just get it!

AH-Mazing!
I recently started loom knitting and of course, bought one of those colorful multi-packs from one of the big super stores. After one had some pegs break off, I went to the craft store and bought a different brand plastic loom. That one wouldn't keep consistent tension, even though I was sure I was doing it correctly. Finally after lots of research, I decided to get the KB All in One. I figured if I didn't like it (let's face it, it is pricey) I would return it. Well, you will have to rip this from my cold dead hands! I love it! I thought that the pegs being closer together would be harder and slow me down, but actually it is very easy and comfortable. The quality is unmatched to those plastic looms. You can use just about any yarn and you don't have to use 2 strands to bulk it up. I have had KB for about 3 days and I am over half way finished with the baby blanket for my niece's arrival next month! The pegs are smooth and the yarn easily moves around it. I also love the adjust-ability. I look forward to years of beautiful projects and busy hands! Even my husband commented the craftsmanship was worth the price...

Great board, one small problem, tight adjustment holes!
I'd been using the round plastic looms for years, but wanted to upgrade to something a little more refined. This board is fantastic. The pegs have a small gauge which is perfect for making things that need a smaller gauge like socks, things for babies, little animals, etc.. The board is extremely versatile, from huge blankets to tiny little tubes, literally anything is possible with this one device!If you are used to using the plastic looms, it takes a little bit getting used to the smaller pegs with less pronounced grooves. I find that inserting the hook from the top and "scooping" the yarn over is the easiest, way. Also be careful not to wind the yarn too tightly, you really don't need to to keep the gauge looking good, and it will just make your project extremely hard to work with!My one problem with this board was that when I got it the adjustment holes drilled into to board were extremely tight. I had to use a hammer to tap out the metal pegs and to reinsert them. My husband couldn't even get them in and out by hand. I was really worried about breaking the board! I contacted the company and they said the tightness was normal, and should diminish over time, but they did offer to send me a replacement board anyway. I thought that was a nice gesture, but instead of going through the hassle of having it replaced, I just got some sandpaper and spent a few minutes sanding down each hole until the metal pegs slid in and out easily.All in all, I think this board is absolutely one million percent wonderful! 97% of the time it replaces all my other looms, knitting needles, and doo-dads. I like traditional knitting, but this is easier on my hands (remember, don't wrap your yarn too tightly!)!

Missing & loose parts; required replacement
Updated 2/5/6:The replacement arrived quickly, but this time the small spacers and small screws were loose in the shipping box (in a small plastic bag), clearly having fallen out of the knitting board package during shipping. Haven't started using the loom yet, but again it looks very sturdy and nicely made in comparison to other looms I've used.Original review 2/1/16:Knitting board arrived missing parts (the 2 small spacers + 2 small screws.) Hopefully the replacement will have all it's parts. Some other reviews also mention parts missing and I wonder if the problem is the packaging, which is a cardboard box with a big viewing hole in the middle. KB could solve this quickly by putting the loom box inside a plastic bag.The loom otherwise looked very sturdy and well made. I'm really looking forward to using it. Fingers crossed!

Easy to use and a lot of fun
This knitting loom is amazing! I have always wanted to learn to knit, and taught myself a little bit, but is is so slow compared to crochet. I love using this knitting board. I don't have to worry about dropping stitches, and I can double knit with it. I have used it to make a ton of dish towels that I use on a daily basis. They are soft, absorbant and pretty, and I can make them just about any size I want. I have made several knitted hats with it as well, and even a cover for the vinyl seat in the bus I drive. During the summer, that bus seat gets really hot and my back starts sweating almost as soon as I sit down. This summer, I didn't have that problem, since my loom knitted seat cover kept me comfortale.It's easy to loom knit with this board while watching a movie and relaxing.Double knitting especially is relaxing and almost hypnotic on this loom. I added photos of a few of my loom knit dishtowels for your viewing pleasure ☺
