Finger Knitting with Children

#FingerKnitting #SundayWithSarah #Waldorf #HowTo

In this week's Sunday with Sarah, I explain why finger knitting is such an excellent activity for calming active children and I'll show you how easy it is!

It's a simple craft, but will engage a child's head and hands while leaving him or her with a beautiful and versatile knitted cord.

Have questions? Please leave a comment on the video and don't forget to subscribe to the Sunday with Sarah video channel to be sure to catch all my future tutorials.

Happy Finger Knitting!

Sarah

What a fun activity! And useful! Love all your videos. We still sing ‘tick tock goes the clock’ when we clean up. ❤️

Both my daughters age 4 and 7 just learned after I taught them using this video and I am so thankful to you! Easiest explanation by far

I saw a teacher do this years ago and forgot how it was done. Thank you! I am thrilled to see your tutorial! The children became very proficient with their finger weaving and was a great exercise for focus.

My five year old granddaughter says “Thank you, I really enjoyed this video.” And she has been ginger knitting nonstop ever since watching. We are making a baby blanket out of a long chain of finger knitting sewed together.

😅

[Knitsta]

Thanks for sharing. I will be helping at a craft fair for kids soon and this is something even the young ones can do!

[janetdubose-ferguson]

Thank you, I've been trying to do this for two weeks from another showing. Now I think I'm ready to teach it to some 3rd graders.

[DavidGarnett-droj]

Thanks for the clever directions. Much appreciated.

I haven't seen this method before, I've only been teaching the single finger wrap around then bottom yarn over the top. This is so much easier for the younger ones to understand! Especially with the bird and fish anecdotes! Thank you, I always love watching your weekly videos :)

[marisadaniela]

Ove never seen this method. I'm familiar with the 4 finger method, but this seems like a great way to get my younger children started. Thank you!

Something the children can do with their knitting is shape it into a little animal, sew it to secure, and add eyes and other features from bits of felt.

[vivianasotoreyes]

Thank you, Sarah. I am sure my son will love it. I already do!

[Nicereview]

This is a lovely idea, I will try it with my 5 year old. I was thinking about trying to teach her to knit but I was worried it's a little bit complicated. I was then thinking French knitting, I have one of those little dolls. I think I will start with this, she will love it. Beautiful yarn too.

My five year old just learned the 4 finger knitting today. I was amazed at how fast she caught on. Needless to say I can’t wait to show her this method. It will be a snap and give her some diversity in her initial knitting experience. Thank You 🙏🏻😊
