A new knitter?

I ran across these pictures on my camera the other day. I can't believe I'd forgotten to share them with you! My nephew is about 15 months old, and he was fascinated with my knitting while we were home over Christmas.

Every chance he got, he'd run over and pick up the sweater in progress, find the needles, and tap-tap-tap the tips together. He didn't quite get the idea that the yarn needed to be involved for anything to happen, but he definitely knew that the needles needed to click.


I have to say, he was very good about being careful. He got into the knitting many, many times, and never dropped a single stitch. I think he might be a natural.
