CR2_1314 Living Poetry - #187

My daughter is learning knitting and used YouTube to learn.

I found this poem too on learning ...
http://blog.shopmartingale.com/crochet-knitting/teaching-knitting-to-children/

"Gigi McGreedy will teach you to knit.
She’ll patiently help you to learn bit by bit.

Up through the stitch, put the yarn through the middle,
Down through the same stitch, and little by little

You’ll get less clumsy as you try but still fumble,
Working with needles and yarn in a jumble.

In no time at all, you’ll be stitching in bliss.
But when projects get tough, just remember this:

“Practice makes perfect” will never apply.
We all make mistakes, no matter how hard we try.

So be of good cheer and do not despair.
With time and some care, you’ll have something to wear.

Gigi has faith in what you can do.
Your knitting is special—just like you."

That's a great poem and gosh, the knitting takes me back to at aged 10 when I knitted my first jumper/sweater :)
