Couperwife Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 my friends 6 year old daughter wants to know how to knit. I unfortunately dont live close enough to help at every dropped stitch does anyone know of an easy to read and understand book that will help her (her mum doesnt have a clue - but she can follow easy instructions ) I would be grateful of any help. I am going to get little one a set of needles, some brightly coloured wool, and a "knitting bag" to put them into. she has seen my knitting and now feels very strongly that toy bunny must have a scarf for winter, that she MUST knit - on her own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost-sheep Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 no... but i recomend the big needles because stuff grows really quickly! that way both her and bunny will be warm. the first scarf i made for my self was with 10 mm needles and sirdar frizz wool (not sure about the name of the wool ... it was one of those ones that had pieces of ribbon ande fluufy stuff on) any who... i cast on 5 stitches and kept going in normal stitches until the ball was gone! i also added tassles in a lighter plane yarn! get her doing this and she wont loose heart because she is spending hours doing something that grows s l o w l y!
