| It looks like it might be an eensy loom knitter.. If I saw the instructions I could help a bit more... but from just looking at the kit, it looks like you'd just make loops around each of the top pegs, and add a single loop above each first loop, and pull the first loop over the second and off the top of the peg. Have I confused you enough yet? From there it looks like the longer you go, it'll pull through the center of the handle.. if there's a hole there, anyway. That's my two cents. | |

| It'll start looking right about five or six rows in, no worries! When I started on my looms, I was like, 'this can't possibly be right.. what did I do to screw up? GR!' but kept on and it came out great. | |
