Posted - Aug 26 2013 : 07:03:23 AM My son (11 yrs old) would like to learn to knit, but he's wondering what he can learn to make, other than just the fact of knitting. . .he's just beginning, but thinking ahead :) -- it's easy for me to come up with ideas for his sisters to make when starting, like headbands, etc. but how about a boy?
Thanks for ideas!

Posted - Aug 26 2013 : 1:04:20 PM Loving these ideas! My 6 yo son wants to learn as well. He has already used a circle loom to make a hat for his sister. Next he wants to use an oblong loom to knit socks. After than, we will start with other projects. |
