I’ve been meaning to share these pictures for a while but have been lazy. Emma bought me a knit-a-monkey kit (yay!) and I have started to work on it. Sadly, I think it’s a bit above my skill level at the moment, but I’m excited to work on it.

Here’s me with the kit:

What do you do with this stuff?

Oh! Is chopsticks! Right?

Cast on, huh? I can do that.

This stuff is hard! Or maybe I don’t have great fine-motor skills.

My first night’s progress.

After that step, the pattern calls for increasing by one stitch on the next row. I could not figure out how to do it. Just bumfuzzled me. Oh well. My plan is to learn how to just knit something simple, then come back to this.

Oh, Emma was working on her own monkey at the same time that I was knitting. She, however, can increase.
