My Smoky Mtn. Homestead

Learn To Knit

Knitting will give you a lifetime of pleasure and relaxation.  You can learn to create handmade knits for yourself and people you love.  When you give a lovingly knit gift, part of you goes into it.  Your time, talent, the yarn and color you select -- even the thoughts and feelings you have as you work -- all become part of your knitted gift.  You can learn to knit by following our simple instructions and by the end of chapter 2, you'll be knitting!
