Knitting

I have been knitting on and off for years. I can't remember when I started. I was maybe 6 or 7 years old. My mom taught me.

In the past, I have knitted using wool, but our cat Chouchou gets crazzy around wool (as in "wants to eat it and/or destroy it"), so I switched to non wool materials.

Recently, I knitted baby caps (see below).

Poncho is becoming fashionable in Europe and I was looking for a modele to knit one with turtle neck (I have several v-collar sweaters that are just too cold for winter/spring and thought that a small poncho might look nice on it.

I found some models in English, but explanations are difficult to understand when you are not used to them. It is a language of its own.

I found some instructions in French and will try.
