You guys rock! I received my loom and keychain today and I have been in heaven. Thank you so much! The loom is awesome. I have started a Christmas baby cocoon for the Pine Ridge baby project and it's coming out beautiful! I love the small gauge.
Thank you again and again and again. I've said it before and I will say it again, I will never use anything but Kiss ever again. The product is exceptional and the people behind it are awesome!
...everything is easier and faster using the KISS. - Kendall
Well guess who was waiting at my door when I got home from work! That's right, Lil Slim. I threw dinner in the oven, took care of my mother and starting getting to know him. I AM IN LOVE! Geesh, I wish I would have started out with KISS when I was learning. I wasted so much money on looms that I will not use anymore. I absolutely love the KISS. - Kendall
Your design is incredible! I wasn't even able to knit on a KK loom. It was just too hard on my arthritic fingers. But with my F2, I have no pain at all no matter how long I knit. I haven't been able to knit for years and now I can again. I'm thrilled. I think it's been nearly ten years since I was able to knit so you can probably imagine how excited I am to have this in my life again. - Linda
