Finger Knitting can be taught to any person from 5 to 95 years; some children find it very addictive. A short piece of knitted tube will be made and ideas given for its end use.
Arm knitting can be taught to older children and adults. A piece of loose knitting will be made which could be fashioned into a neck cowl.
Sociable Knitting and Crochet is a way of knitting in a group of 4 and will achieve a square throw. Suitable to introduce complete non-knitters to the craft while engaging with the group. Usually this causes some intrigue to visitors.
Participants will have a chance to knit and/or crochet.
Instructions and hints will be given as to how to prepare for all the above and to run your own demonstration.
