The DRAGON Large Fixed Gauge Loom is perfect for bulky yarn or double stranded worsted weight yarn. The pegs are spaced further apart from each other and the pins then our standard looms and allow for easy use of bulky yarn. The gauge is fixed and pegs and pins are on the same board. The DRAGON produces a similar gauge fabric to the large plastic looms with an average of 2.25 sts and 3.75 rows per 1 inch using Lion Brand Hometown USA #6 weight yarn.
The DRAGON comes as pictured with 2 sides and 2 end pairs for a total of 42 pegs. The end pairs will slide up and down the loom allowing you to knit any number of pegs in the round from 42 down to 16 pegs (as shown with blue yarn pictured below). With our Kiss peg/pin system this loom has fast wrapping and nice even knit stitches. The looms weighs in at 15.2 oz so it's light weight and with the Kiss U-stitch and peg style is also much easier on your hands when working with heavier yarns.
Here is what some of our testers had to say about the DRAGON:
No need to fear this dragon! It's the perfect blend of Kiss knitting technology and simplicity. Those who love bulky knitting on plastic looms will love this even more thanks to the famous Kiss U-stitch and the adjustable size. Easy to knit on and produces a lovely fabric. - Kathryn Doubrley, The Answer Lady
I just wanted to let you know how much I love the KISS Dragon Loom! I just love how the yarn slides easily over the pegs & how impeccably perfect the stitches are, especially for a large gauge loom! This is a perfect starter KISS for beginning loomers who can best learn on a larger gauge loom, or for projects that require a bulky or super bulky yarn.
Having started out loom knitting on the large gauge plastic looms like most people, I can say from experience that the KISS Dragon leaves them in the dust! This loom will be THE loom I use for my bulkier projects from now on! - Tami Walsh, PA
id love to have one.. and to try i heard from friends is awesome.. so i got one on my wishlist.. for my bday..
For all you beginners!! I can tell you this Dragon tamed me real good! LOL. When I first tried a regular gauge Kiss loom it was different to get use to. Then when this Dragon became part of the Kiss family I had to try it and I'll tell you I wish I would of had tried this Dragon before any other loom as it was very very easy to get the feel of how to weave around the pegs and pins. Now I get back on my regular gauge loom and whip right around those pegs and pins! I thank you so very much for creating this wonderful loom! Not is it only very easy to learn and work on but I can use some very nice bilking yarn on my Dragon!!Bonnie Visser
