Once, knitting was
viewed as an "old lady's sport," but now people are reconsidering that
label. From preschool classrooms to college campuses, younger folks are
yearning for yarn, and the time-honored craft is gaining momentum.
I recently heard that
knitting and crocheting have become all the rage and at least one of the
local academies has been making scarves to give out to the needy. This is
a great time to capitalize on this and incorporate teaching the knitting
honor. This honor also corresponds with this years Pioneering theme.
But what if no one in
your club knows how to knit? This could be an opportunity for some of
your church members to help the club but only participate for a short
time.
For free patterns,
remember to check the stores that sell yarn. They often have free one
page instructions for quick projects.
Below are links that
either have instructions on how to knit or free patterns that you can
use.
