cute knit kit / DIY '

I hesitated to buy this set for my son (very handy!) To teach her to knit ... Incidentally, GRRR, hard-hard to find a knitting kit for children that is not pink candy, and do not offer not realize that flowers / hearts / Banner / bags / scrunchies / jewelry !!!! -_- '

Fortunately, this "knitting trunk" was wisely given him and ... I am absolutely not disappointed!
The background color is beautiful and good, and always ENCORE! ROSE but spend on this "detail" ... The needles are wood (medium quality, but it will!) With a blue colored end very nice (Aig. # 5) ... there are 3 balls (50g) bright colors (1 single rose! 1 lime green and 1 blue) in size adapted to the needles ... there is also a plastic needle round tip to tuck the son and 4 large buttons (2 pink / orange 2) to the eyes of small characters to "tinker" ... but mostly there is a small accompanying booklet (with drawings & color photos) written by Hildegarde Deuzo (please also discover that it already published in terms of creative leisure for young people, always very nice!) for tinkering so his first knitwear!
On the program:
* The basics of knitting (good to very good, though not exceptional)
* Super simple bow headband for little girls (garter)
* Mat (jersey) and cushions (foam) to allow resting his figure / her favorite toy, and tell stories (a flying carpet?)
* A small owl too nice! (Foam / jersey / Classified stitching and padding)
* Storage pouch with 2 buttons (red-green-blue + foam / jersey)
* An orange scarf (you will buy wool this time!) (Any foam or alternatively foam / jersey)
* A cat like "amigurumi" padded head, which can then set everywhere with a safety pin like a brooch or a "lucky charm" (there must also bring you a new wool and Other buttons for eyes)

In short, if you want to pass the "knitting" virus to your children, if you have the equipment at home to accompany + before this adventure, if you are looking for a more "mixed" case (girl / boy) possible, I WILL REALLY RECOMMEND THIS ARTICLE!

For children over 8 years, with accompaniment, IMHO. Happy knitting !!!
