Knitting 101


Using this tutorial, I have learned to knit. Of course, I am still definitely a beginner, but it is so much fun. It was easy to learn the basics of knitting with her tutorials. My 10 year old daughter has learned also and loves it. Now when I need a lazy escape with a movie, I have another way to still be productive with my hands.

My kids love to wear beanies, not that we need warm hats much in the desert, so they think I am super cool now that I can make them hats by request. I hope to keep learning more about knitting and learn to make more wonderful things!

  3. You did an awesome job. I am so excited there is someone else out there with the knitting bug. I LOVE KNITTING. In fact Im grounded from buying anymore yarn until I use some of my stash. (about five garbage bags full)(I had to make room for my new family to move in.)
