Finger Knitting and Painting

Our plan today was to go swimming and spend sometime in town at the library.  We had already been on a long dog walk and Jasmin was tired and not very inspired especially as it was pouring it down with rain.

One of the lovely things about home ed, is your day can change depending upon how your child is feeling. Nothing is set in stone.

We decided to do some knitting.  I carried on knitting Jasmin's cardigan and Jasmin did some finger knitting.  Finger knitting is amazing it grows so quickly and you can make so many things with it, pictures,  mats, bags, etc.

Jasmin wanted to start making mats for Christmas presents for her nan and grandma.
Once the knitting was the length Jasmin wanted, we cut out some felt and twirled the knitting into shape and stuck it on to the felt with fabric glue, (which dries clear).


 Still in a creative mood, Jasmin painted one of her Christmas sun catchers.

A fab rainy day.xxx
