Knit a Fob on a 24-peg Loom for Scissors or Keys

Fob is defined as; a short strap, ribbon, or chain attached especially to a pocket watch. We don’t really use pocket watches anymore, but we do use scissors and keys. Some of us really appreciate a beautiful pair of scissors. A fob can turn an ordinary pair of scissors into a treasured gift for any occasion. Make it even more personal by knitting one in the color and style of your choice.

This project is super quick and easy to knit, add it to a vintaged scissor and place the set in a special gift box for your loved one.   I hope you guys like it as much as I have.

Below is the step by step, beginner easy, video tutorial. Be sure to watch it completely before starting.
