Knitting

I have been wanting to learn how to knit and get the girls knitting too.  I wanted the girls and myself to learn the basics of this timeless craft so we can create together.  There is something so wonderful about creating and then gifting your creation.  I wasn't sure where to begin because I knew knitting was difficult to learn.  While on our cruise this summer I was introduced to the idea of using a knitting loom.  I held off until I had watched several "how to" videos on YouTube and done my research before I purchased the goods to get started.  I knew loom knitting would be the perfect starting point for us.  The box of goodies arrived this week.  On Friday after getting the girls into bed I stayed up and got started.  YIPPEE!!  Over the course of the weekend I showed the girls and got them going.  We had the sweetest time working together on the knitting loom.  Today, we finished our first two little hats!
