A Bit of Bragging

I just have to do a little bit of bragging on my daughters who knit. This is the most recent creation by Rosie, my 9yo. She used my I-cord maker and some baby yarn for a purse. The body of the purse has rows of I-cord sewn together . They loop back and forth to make a scalloped edge. Rosie has made lots of scarves and has no fear of frogging.



Amy, my 13yo, has made lots of knitted and crocheted items. She has often helped me with chemo caps and afghan blocks. Here are a scarf, headbands and wristwarmers that she made recently. She used my Very Basic Wrist Warmers pattern. Free on my web site.

My 4yo also loves to knit. He and I work together. He throws the yarn while I work the needles or he will work the needles and I throw the yarn for him. He is working on a scarf for a baby girl that we took care of for a while. He is such a cutie.

I think I taught 7 of the 8 kids how to knit at some time. Somehow the 16 yo missed out. I keep offering to teach him but he keeps saying no. Someday he may wish he knew how to knit! My oldest 2 boys don't knit any more but of the 2 oldest girls, one knits and the other crochets yet. It is nice to see another generation carry on the crafts!
