Is there anything cuter?

The cuteness doesn't stop there...

  • She asked me to take a photo of her knitting for her website.  (She doesn't have a website.)
  • When I asked her about the non-existent website she said she would have one soon and that it would be called "Knitting Tree"...yes, my 6 year old niece already has the name for her blog.  She even has a design in mind...she told me that the leaves would be knits.  Seriously, she came up with that all on her own. 
  • After the photo shoot she says, "Erin, you are like the knitting master." Then she corrected herself and said "You and Kara are the knitting masters."  So diplomatic even though I am the one teaching her.  Technically I should be the master, but, whatever.

I have been teaching Emma to knit and while in Canada we picked up some fun bulky yarn in bold orange, pink, red, purple, and yellow colors and she and I are making a scarf.  She hasn't quite been able to do it all herself yet, we switch off with one of us wrapping and the other doing the rest but she is getting there.  I assume if I was around more it would go more quickly but we just have our lessons on Sundays. 

She told me once, "Erin, I am going to grow up to be a knitter just like you and Kara."  She kills me.

What a perfect picture! It makes me think of when I was little and my grandma taught me to knit. Too bad I didn't have such awesome yarn though.

How fun to be co-knitting the scarf with her! And too cute that she is already planning to join the knit blog world! :)
