Sewing Saturdays - Finger Knitting!

Alhamdulillaah taking the advise our dear sister Umm Tafari we attempted finger knitting. Jazzakillaah Khayr sis Umm Tafari for the concern and timely suggestion it was a such a beautiful experience and we loved it masha Allaah!

I helped Maimoonah first to do it and eventually she caught it even though she still needed help. But she did well, in fact her one was very much nicer and neater than mine : )

We did not have any proper yarn as usual, just had some thread we use to hang things up and we used it for the moment!

So first we watched this video and Maimoonah started finger knitting!


 

This is how her work looked when completed!

 



And she wanted it for her bunny!


Then I attempted finger knitting and it ended up like this.


Watched this You tube and made the flower. Stitching was an issue I guess because the yarn was very soft! But managed to do something: )




So that was how it all went. Time to get more knitting stuff now and explore Insha Allaah!

Excellent work, maashaa Allah. Maimoonah always impressed me with her ability!
