I have a set of round looms and am now knitting a project on them. I have long since misplaced the "stick" that comes with the kit and I have used several substitutes such as a piece of metal stick or a knitting needle. The other night we had kabobs and it occurred to me that the bamboo skewers might work as a knitting stick. So I washed them off and tried them. They "do" work, and they are flexible and fairly strong. The points may break off, but they are usable even then. Next time I see a set at the Dollar Store, I will stock up.
