FINGER KNITTING































I tried finger knitting as I thought it would be a way to create large items. However as it can only ever be 4 stitches wide all you get is a long knitted strip. I first attempted it with standard wool, but as you can see the outcome looked like a blob of spaghetti.  I tried using chunky wool, which worked a lot better in terms of overall appearance, however it's still not useful for the task in hand. Perhaps later in the project if I need to wrap something in knit or create something long and thin it could be used again.


Reverse, although this is the back, I actually
prefer it to the front as I like how entwined 
the wool appears (it's somehow not as 
gappy as the front).
Using thicker wool, front side
