Here’s a pic of the 2 shades of yarn that I spun for it, as well as the Butterfly loom, a spool knitter, my Nostepinne, and a flower loom (I think I will add flowers soon….)

I really like to use spool knitting for the edges of ButterflyLoom pieces. This is how I attach the spool knitting to the fabric:
Make several rectangles on the Butterfly loom and join them, to create a very spiffy narrow scarf :
