I have a new project. I bought looms.

 

 

 

 

I kept seeing at Walmart and had to know how to do them. My plan is to make hats for Christmas presents. The instructions that came with them were all smashed in the box. Instead of reading smashed instructions I watched a couple of YouTube videos.  I have to admit I had to start over twice. The first time I started with the blue loom and the beginning turned out holey. Not good for a hat. Also the blue loom is for a child’s hat. The second time I picked the orange loom is for an adult hat and I somehow missed a loop when trying to make the brim of the hat.

However yesterday I finally got it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I was getting a little frustrated with it but now that I got it, I can’t wait to continue. If this turns out great, I will be making more hats. I also found out that I can make more than just hats with the looms. But first just hats.

On Saturday I called my dad to see what they were doing. Nothing during the day so I asked him if he wanted to have brunch with us. Of course he said yes! We drove to Green Bay to meet them at the Pancake Place in Green Bay. When we got there the place was packed and this was only 11:30. Also we got there before my parents who live in Green Bay. Funny!

Anyway we got a table and I think they think you have to be a stick to fit anywhere in there. I was really crammed in the table. When my parents got there, they were really crammed in the table as well. That part was unpleasant but as people started to leave it wasn’t so crammed. My parents were surprised that we would make a trip just to eat out with them. I thought that was cool as well.
