Wrap the knifty knitter loom, using a basic e wrap. Beginning with the first peg, pull the yarn completely around the peg wrapping from the side furthest away toward the side closest. This will create a cursive letter "e." The "e" should cross on the inside of the loom and the top of the "e" should be on the outside of the loom.
Continue this pattern of e wrapping until all the desired pegs are wrapped. It is common for beginners to wrap the pegs too tightly. Wrapping too tightly makes it difficult to knit off when you begin to knit your project.
