I've become addicted to reading the UK magazines, especially Stitch. Well, now it's going to get expensive. I want a Prym Flower loom. It looks far more flexible than any thing I can find from a US company. And as of right now, they don't sell it in the US.... GRRRR

I can't make that image come up, but your message reminds me of a neat little blue leather covered cusion - maybe 5" or so in diameter that my mother had for making snowflake or flower-like doilies. I have some still - about 3" in diameter. I believe it was called a Koppo Cushion or something like that. Instead of the preset little teeth I see on some of those flower looms, this Koppo Custion had a concentric rings of holes in which you placed little pegs, allowing design flexibility. Then you wove your yarn or thread in and out to make the little snowflake. Sadly, it was lost long ago, when she died & my step-father sold her belongings. Has anyone heard of this tool? I may not be spelling it right. I have always been sorry it was let go, and have never found it on the web.

Oh, one more thing... the instructions were written in Oriental looking symbols. I remember my mother fussing over that because no illustrations were included, so she figured it out on her own. I don't think she bought it new. Deb
Cheryl,
Do you subscribe? or are you getting Stitch somewhere else? My local bookstores seem to have stopped carrying it and I absolutely love that magazine.

I get it Barnes and Noble. I've thought about subscribing, but with the overseas penalty vs my 10% BN card plus I can use my coupons on magazines there. C
