Nutty Knitting

Thanks very much to Dianne Fleming, who posted this neat game to the Guiding Mailing List!

This is a fun game that anyone who can knit will be able to join in with. (Or a good fun activity once your girls know the basics of knitting!) Get the girls to challenge their friends/family/unit members.

They will each need: 2 pieces of uncooked spaghetti (You know, the long straight ones) and a scrap of fine wool (or crochet cotton or similar).

To Play: Cast on 4 stitches using the spaghetti as knitting needles. Knit for as long as you can before the spaghetti gets too short to use. With care this is possible! Compare your efforts with others and see who got the furthest! This is crazy but a lot of fun. Great for a Mum/Grandmother daughter evenings or whenever!
