The Spool Knitter is a very simple device used to produce a continuous length of tubular rope. Back in the old days, this rope would be fashioned into making mats, rugs, belts, and horse reins.
I remember when my best friend and I discovered spool knitting, and it became our big pastime. We would come home from school, sit on the porch, and knit until we got called for dinner. We must have knitted a mile of rope while we talked about life every day. Who knows what we did with it, but we had some companionable times.
What mesmerized a couple of eight-year-olds back then will surely delight your crafter now - and perhaps a best buddy, as well. Comes with a needle and enough yarn to get you started.
Recommended for ages 8+ with adult supervision. Measures 3 inches.
