While on vacation I bought the Knifty Kniiter long loom series kit and did not open it until I was home. I opened the sealed package and was very disappointed to find no step by step instructions and no hook and needle . Now what do I do? The kit was over $20, am I suppose to buy the tools and instructions that should have been in the sealed kit?
Several years ago, I received a gift and when I went to open the box to use it (a few months later), there were no instructions. I just e-mailed the manufacturer, and they quickly sent me a set of instructions.
Even if they won't mail a physical copy to you, they might have a pdf of the instructions online. Can't hurt to ask!
What kind of store did you buy it from? If it's a national chain, you might take it to a local one and request another kit -- with the tool and instructions. I checked at my library and they had a knitting loom instruction book with lots of great photos. Best of luck on your projects!
Hi Cathi, I am sorry to hear that you got shorted when you bought your KK. I got miine at Walmarts and I did get a tool and pamphlet, so I am wondering if you got a returned item. Unless you can return it to where you bought it (which I am assuming you can't since you got it on vacation) you will have to invest in a 99 cent tool and a 99 cent pamplet. Anyway, the YouTube videos may provide you with better instructions. Happy Knitting!
I lost the tool that came with my KK and I have discovered almost anything works in it's place. I have used a knitting needle, dull scissors, a metal yarn darner sewing needle, and almost anything else I can dig into the stitches without cutting them or shredding them. You can find instructions on the internet by simply typing something along the lines of: Knifty Knitter, Loom knitting and Rake Knitting. Also go to the KK website. Lots of information there. Also stop by your local library and see if they have any books that can help you. There are some good loom knitting books out there that the library may have. If the library doesn't have the books ask them about interlibrary loan.
Cathi, At Walmart you can buy the working tool, & needle for about $1.00, as far as patterns, videos are on you tube, just type in loom knitting and if you google 'Knitting Looms' you can find great free patterns. Enjoy

I purchased the long purple loom, and somewhere between my mother and my son, the instructions are missing. Can anyone tell me where to get instructions for it?

I got mine for Mother's day and could never figure it out. Then, yesterday, I went on to youtube.com and found a girl named Joccy who puts videos on that show you how. She's a young girl and she explains it perfectly! I actually finished a scarf today. Just go to youtube, search Knifty Knitter and you see Joccy. She has about 3 videos. Perfect! Teree

I bought the Knifty Knitter long loom series and there was no instructions with it. I know I should be smart enough to do it without instructions but I guess I'm not. I have never bought something that didn't have any instructions with it. I also bought the round Knifty Knitter and had instructions on how to make the hat but not the scarf, so I bought this other one thinking it would tell me.

You can get a small booklet at Walmart that will give you directions for the long looms. (12/29/2008)
