The set consists of 1 SPLIT French Knitter, 12 pegs, 6 U-pins, 1 Loom hook, 3 rubber rings and a set of instructions. The pegs and U-pins are interchangeable. Use pegs when working with thinner yarn or floss. You can use any number of pegs but as a guide, use 12 pegs for the finest yarns and 6 for slightly thicker yarns. U-pins are ideal when using thicker yarns – you can use all 6 pins or just 4 depending on theSimply place the yarn end and the object to be covered inside the French knitter cavity. Join and close both halves of the French knitter together using the rubber rings to hold in place. You can now start French knitting around the object, pulling gently on the yarn at the base of the French knitter as the knitted cord starts to grow yarn.
