Knitting a scarf



After three lessons, the knit stitch is becoming familiar to Madi. This has been a learning experience for both of us. I have seen my grandmas knit and crochet for years and have never learned how to do anything, but desired to teach my girls. A year ago, Hunter learned from his grandma and quickly made scarves with his big knitting needles and thick blue yarn. Now it is our turn. Our friend, Kim, taught us at our Keepers of the Faith meeting. When Madi was learning and making some mistakes, we would try to fix them. This eventually would lead to pulling it all apart and starting over. After much practice and mistakes, she now has a recognizable scarf and is really enjoying knitting.
