Maaike started trying to knit earlier in the year, but needed a bit of help, but yesterday, while I was untangling bits of wool she found her knitting and polished off four whole rows with only a quick reminder of the rhyme we use. the shot is a bit grainy though, woops!I had a play on my spinning wheel ( a new to me one, donated by a colleague of my husband, rescued from her garage), playing with how skinny I could make the singles, using scrap bits of fibre that a few months ago I couldn't spin, plying them together etc. Fun!
The two fibres used here are in natural colours but I have no idea what sheep they came from. Finally confirmation of moving day! This friday we finally move our stuff into our rural rental and start to make it our home!
Thats soo cool thats she's learning too, they are so lucky to have a momma like you to teach them :)
