In this mini-course, Rebecca will guide you through the steps to teach your child how to finger knit and how to complete some finger knitting projects.


This course is designed for parents and teachers to learn how to teach finger knitting to their children/students.


Finger Knitting is a good fit for children around the age of 5 or 6 who can do fine motor activities such as measuring out a teaspoon of liquid, planting seeds in the soil, or building a gnome/fairy house out of small twigs. If we expect that a child can finger knit before they are developmentally ready, it can lead to disappointment and resistance to future projects.


This course was created by a Waldorf teacher with over ten years of experience teaching handwork to young children. She has taught many children with great success, and she is ready to teach YOU how to teach your child.
