Knitting is a great way to create, de-stress, invest in you and the people you care about.

Knitting is a pass time enjoyed by many. I am amazed at the knitting projects I have seen people make. Hats, scarfs, blankets and sweaters.

Knitting is a great way to create something for yourself and others.

Handmade items are always better than store bought and they generally last longer. I still have hats my Grandmother knitted over 20+ years ago.

Frugal DIY and knitting.

If you are looking for a frugal do it yourself project to pass the time while you wait at dance lessons, soccer practice or simply while you watch television knitting is a bought as frugal as they come.

You will require knitting needles, yarn and patterns. All of which are very cheap to purchase. You can even get yarn on discount at most craft stores and thrift shops.

I have also seen knitting supplies available at dollar stores.

Knitting for others and knitting to make money.

Knitting projects depending on your skill level and the size of the project can be completed relatively quickly. You might be able to knit a scarf in a day or a hat over a couple of days.

Locally we have knitting groups and people who knit for a living. Making hats, scarfs, blankets and so much more to earn an income to support their family.

These items are sold locally, but you could sell them on crafting sites as well to make additional income. Knitting patterns are another great way to make a great income online.
