If you’re a regular reader, did finger knitting strike your house, like it did ours? If you’re new to willowday, do you or your kids finger knit? The kids were on their way to the Guinness World Book of Records after their ceaseless knitting and; then, started coming up with great ways to actually use it. These head bands are pretty and a great craft to do with a group or solo. If you’d like to know how, see below. They’re perfect for the season!
