Does anyone else in this guild do their knitting this way?

I always found the concept of using the needles to knit as a kind of...impossible task for me. I don't know why I thought like that though. So the day I saw these looms at walmart, I just had to have them.

I'm still rather new to them as I've only been at it for a little over a month (and haven't had too much time to practice). However, I'm making things that I thought I could never make in my life (scarves, hats...I'm even working on a stuffed bear). So I'm loving these looms very much so.

There's one thing I'd love to learn to do with them but can't seem to find a tut online to tell me how to do so. Buttonholes. Darn things elude me and I don't even have a small clue as to how I'd go about doing them. D:

Anyway, I'm new to this guild (I actually haven't even been accepted yet but shhh) and figured this would be a good first post. So hi thar! I'm Tang and I loom knit. xP

My mom got me a set of these a few years back for Christmas. I have fiddled around with it a little and was making a hat, but my cat got ahold of the yarn and chewed through the yarn connecting the ball to the loom... sweatdrop I like them though...

That sucks. D: I'm glad my cat doesn't bother my skeins of yarn. She just plays with random pieces of yarn that have gotten away from me before I've had a chance to throw them away.

Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I'm bad at keeping up with guild topics sometimes. xp

I have a set. I started on hat and scarf on those... but they were abandoned. I've found I like hand knitting more, although spool knitting sometimes comes in handy.
