I have small feet so the 24 peg looms make socks that are too big for me. I looked around for a slightly smaller loom (around 18 pegs) and found this one. Since receiving the loom I have made myself a pair of socks using chunky yarn. They fit! The loom itself is lovely, with a wood base and a decorative metal screw on the side. The all-plastic looms are fine, they are fun in a way, but this loom is just pretty. I'm really happy I got it.
