Day 29 of #100daysofspoolknittersandlittlelooms- Small is beautiful
I have been designing some spool knitting projects that are very small in scale and I am enjoying working with small spool knitters to make them.
So I have adapted some of the spool knitters that Jonathan @distinctivewoodworking and his son, Kieran, turned, to make Small But Mighty Spoolknitters that are ergonomically delightful for spool knitting small treasures.
I’ll be showing you more about Small But Mighty spool knitters and the oh so fun projects in the upcoming days.
Hmm, someone messaged me asking me what I was doing with my 100 day project andwhy?
Well, first- I have adored spool knitting since I was a little girl.
Spool knitters feel innocent and sweet and oh, my word! Those feelings are desperately needed nowadays!
And, second: Some Family stuff: My nephew, Kieran is autistic and is really good at doing woodwork with his Dad, my brother, Jonathan. (@distinctivewoodworking) who carefully mentors him with the lathe.
So, bringing those elements together: We decided to co-create some nifty stuff, and it’s kind of challenging but inspiring & wonderful, too!
(BTW I’m working on tutorials on how to make upcycled spool knitters, too, because that feels important).
I’m having a blast designing vunderbar goodies for spool knitters & exploring intriguing small looms!
The 1st spool knitter in this series is my wish for us all:
May you be well
May you live in Peace.
May you be happy,
May you be safe
I find her very comforting
.
Of course, this project is also about making stuff with spool knitters.
These Simple Tiny Spool Knitted Angels are quick & easy. I love them.
