We have a junior knitter in the house. One stormy Saturday when her soccer game was called off, Keira and I sat down with needles and yarn and practiced the 'in, over, through, off' pattern until she had it sorted. She had started knitting when she was about 4 or so, but I think it was too early for her because frustrations overtook and the work was abandoned.
So it's been finger-knitting for a few years (nearly all the wool in my stash has been finger-knitted), and now some simple garter stitch. She spent her pocket money last week on yarn for her next project. (I'm proud of her, but it really shows the power of nature and nuture, don't you think?)
First finished project: one beautiful orange scarf, for Arlo's toy monkey, 'Monkey'.
