I taught one of my classes to knit as a bit of an experiment a couple of years ago. It was wonderful! They used to keep their kits under their chairs and as soon as they’d finished any work out would come the needles. They were so proud of themselves. Unfortunately the school I work at didn’t support it at all and so all costs had to come out of my own pocket and it got a bit expensive. But it was brilliant. Made the kids calmer, more confident and more motivated to do well in class – as the star of each week got to choose a funky ball of wool from my Special Bag. =)

My daughter will be thrilled you included her finger knitting. I’ve been impressed with how quickly children can pick it up, and they are always so proud of the results.

I bet it would be fun to relearn with your kids!

I was into it for a while but never advanced past the scarf phase. Maybe I should try again with my kids. We’ve embroidered but never picked up the knitting needles. Great idea!
