How to Knit : Hand
knitting is a craft
traditionally handed down from one
generation to another. Over the years
there has been a decline in hand
knitting and many young people have
never been taught how to knit.
We aim
to promote the craft of hand
knitting as a rewarding and useful skill
that will provide children, their parents
and other interested parties with a
sense of achievement. Seeing a piece
of knitting grow provides a real sense
of fulfilment. Once the skill is acquired
the knitter can develop creative and
technical skills and enjoy the activity.
Knitting can also be a therapeutic and
calming way to spend time by
de-stressing and allowing time for
relaxation, thinking and day dreaming.
In this context it is an ideal way for
hospital patients to spend their time
whilst recovering. How
