Many years ago I wanted to learn how to knit --- and I did knit a few things, like scarves, a throw for a couch and super easy things.  My knitting never went very far because I just never took the time to learn all the stitches, nor was I patient enough to sit long enough to knit something "real" like a sweater.

A few months ago I decided to work on my knitting again as a "winter" project.  Well, I found something even better than knitting needles ---- a knitting BOARD!   WHOOHOO, this is much faster and I can really get into the knitting now. 

Patterns2Go has  perfect "how to make a knitting board" pattern instructions.  I got the instructions and made one for myself and for gifts for a couple friends.  Now, THIS is the way to knit!!!



This would be an easy way to teach a child how to knit also.  It only cost $4.95 for complete illustrated instructions ---- and I LOVE mine!!  Check it out --- there's still enough "winter" left to call it a winter project!
