Meet my new knitting group~posted by Kelli



                                 Lucy, Tessa, & Isabell~  twin sisters on the ends, 10 years old and Tessa 8 years.  We try and get together Sunday mornings after church.  They brighten my day with so many questions, and comments.  For example, today they called the stockinette stitch side, the 'waterfall side' and I'm right there to remind them the correct naming of things.
 They are naturals and knitting and chatting.  Lucy on the left is knitting her baby cousin a blanket, Tessa in the middle just started last week, on a scarf, and Isabell a hat in the round.
 I can't tell who enjoys it more, me or them, but I pretty sure it's me~

    1. they are fun...I was commenting on how great it was for them to start knitting so young, when Isabell asked me how old I was when I started knitting, and how old am I now...she immediately came up with the number of years I've been knitting, she's a math-girl. Hmm? Lots of potential.

    1. Thanks Mimi, I softly chuckled to myself when Isabell said it...I really didn't want to correct her, it was priceless. I will look at stockinette different, and smile.

  4. Adorable picture. I like teaching children how to knit. They typically catch on so quickly.
