Description

It’s all about the projects – cute little ladybugs, hedgehogs, puppets, and pouches. Motivated by creating, students learn basic knitting stitches and procedures. Step-by-step instructions coupled with illustrating photographs make it easy. This resource includes quality materials – wool yarn and wooden needles – which caught my eye (and approval). Starting with super simple projects and foundational stitches, the book progresses through all the basic stitches. Although it might be possible for a motivated child to learn to knit on their own using just the book, the whole process will be much more enjoyable if there is an adult mentor nearby.
