These are knitting looms in a small gauge. I found that I was using 88 pegs frequently on my adjustable loom, and wanted something a bit more comfortable. I've since been adding more options and would be happy to include other sizes if needed.
Assembly is pretty straight forward, it's basically built out of two rings that have been chopped into quarters for printing on a p1s as the overall design is larger than the print bed. The two rings get glued together, but offset so that their seams don't line up (think bricks). Take one inner ring piece and two outer ring pieces, and glue the inner into the two outer pieces so that it overlaps the point at which they come together. Then, keep adding inner and outer rings until complete. It will require glue for all of the ring pieces.
The pegs are pretty straight forward as well, just press them in, they should be tight enough to stay, but if they are coming loose you can always add some glue. You can also print pegs in different colors depending on what your patterns require, I like to have one peg for the starting peg in a special color, then do two other colors to signify odd and even. This is great for rib stitches.
The filament choices for the rings are up to you, I went with a Wood PLA, but just about anything should work. The pegs will take abuse from yarn and your knitting hook (not included, I like the KB blue hooks personally), I have printed in ABS and PETG for the pegs, and I think the PETG is more than adequate. It will smooth with use, but you can always touch up rough spots with a file or sand paper, etc. I do find that a finer layer height on the pegs can start off smoother, .12mm works well, and I'm testing .08mm next.
Overall I'm pretty happy with the print, it feels solid and should be durable. Check back, I'm considering designing some of the more common sizes in the future.
This print shouldn't need any supports at all.
UPDATE - I've added an STL for a new version of the pegs, it is smoother and has material at the base to help prevent loom hooks from getting stuck when knitting.
