And before bed this evening some more french knitting! Bit disappointed that we haven’t managed to see the knitting out of the bottom yet, but it takes an awfully long time for dd to do each stitch, not helped by the fact that the wool supplied in the kit is pretty terrible, keeps going to strands. Which started a bit of a rant yesterday evening, can’t help feeling that a lot of children are put off doing stuff by having been given useless (but safe) tools to do things with, that then make it really difficult to actually do whatever it was they were trying. They then assume it is their fault that whatever it was didn’t work, and you end up with one more person convinced they can’t knit/ sew/ crochet/ french knit/ do carpentry…it’s a theory anyway.
