While I was sick I couldn't do much of anything except watch Coronation Street and sleep. After a few days though I was getting a bit stir crazy and really wanted to get into to the studio to make something. I was itching to create. But I really just had zero energy and couldn't do much of anything at all
Until I pulled out my spool knitter! I was able to do it while laying on the couch watching TV. Once you know how to do it there's really very little thought that has to go into it and the end result is usually something both beautiful and useful!
So, here's one last spool knitting video for the year. In this one I also show you how to make and add fringe to your project.
If you're new to the series you can learn how to make your own spool knitter here , learn the basics here, and catch up on fun spool knitting projects here and here .
How to fringe your spool knitted cowl:
