lynnie, I make them in all different colors. If they are gifts I try to find out what the kitchen colors are & try to match that. I've made them red & green for Christmas before also. The looms in the link on my previous post seem to have the little posts very far apart. Mine are about 1/2" apart & there are a total of 66 finishing nails on my entire loom and they stick up about 3/4" to 1/2" tall. The loom in the link I sent has 48 pegs on it. Each side of my loom measures 6 1/4" long (the outside dimension) & the loom is 1 3/8" wide. Maybe you could get someone to make one for you. Mine is out of a solid piece of plywood. Hope this helps you some.
They are not hard to make & doesn't take much practice but are time consuming when it comes to tying them off. I watch t.v. while making them.
