That knitting board: Can't you make ...Hiya MR,<br /><br />That knitting board: Can't you make your own? All it seems to be is a bit of wood with some nails.<br />We made those when we were kids: small and just 4 nails on top of a bobbin with a hole in the middle. This made a knitted cord and you could do it whilst walking to school. (Those were the days, when kids walked to school. :-)<br /><br />BTW, I reckon that if you crave this bit of kit, what you are really saying is that you are ready for a proper loom. <br /><br />Then you can weave some of your yarn and knit/crochet some and make a combination garment.<br /><br />Do you spin your own yarns? <br />Do you grow your own wool, meaning sheep?<br />I absolutely adore spinning and using the very finest Merino. I was given some once from a friend who had been to NZ. She gave us each a tiny bit, ten (10) grams scoured and combed, but unspun. We had to make something from this and then we had a mini show.<br />I knitted a lace edging. So soft and fine. I reckon it was a count of 110. <br /><br />Anyways, don't feel you have to publish this long comment.jocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08443120495036936430noreply@blogger.com
