Taught by Michele Muska
Create a sweet baby cocoon and matching hat for the baby in your life—no “knitting” required! Fiber artist Michele Muska shows you how to use a round loom to make both projects, and how to craft custom fabric simply by holding two different yarns together. Whether you’ve knit with a loom before or this is your first time, this is a simple, relaxing way to create beautiful gifts for your friends and family.

WOW! This is great! I haven't gotten very far into loom knitting yet, but I'm definitely more excited about it now! I even have a few new babies to make gifts for, this will be perfect! Thank you for all the interesting and clear instructions.

excellent instructions. The only thing I'm left not sure about is what size the infant hat loom should be. I will figure out on my own, but it would have been nice if the instructor would have said. The other thing to note is that the snuggle bunny yarn is no longer made. I had to find a substitute.
