    When you use a loom you're knitting, not crocheting. Try googling "crochet sock patterns" and then lloking over what comes up. You should be able to find some simple ones.

    My husband and I bought a sock loom last winter and I wish I had my money back! It is very tedious and the thin sock yarn kept jumping off all the little posts! It really wasn't worth it. Wasn't real cheap either. We bought ours at Hobby Lobby. This is my opinion for what its worth. The technique for the loom is nothing like knitting with needles or crochet either. Lawana

    You don't use the needles but the winding around and then lifting the lower yarn over the upper yarn IS A Knit stitch when finished. I'm using the circular loom to make hats. started but stopped to work on shawls. I will get back to it eventually.
