T has been begging me to teach him to knit for over a year now. We have had fits and starts, but haven't been very successful so far. I didn't even know their were books designed to teach kids until the one was posted in the monthly thread.
His 7th birthday is next month and I am thinking about getting him a book to help teach him. Our local library doesn't have much in terms of selection, so it would be hard to browse to decide what I want.
For those who have taught your kids to knit --
Any tricks to teaching them
Any books you would recommend.
I think he has the basic idea, but not the follow through of patience yet. If he could just get a couple of stitches formed on his own, I think he could get it figured out.
