Easy Scarf for Children to Knit

This winter my fad has been knitting scarves. (A couple of years ago, it had been knitting beanies.) They have got to be one of the quickest and easiest things to knit. If you're teaching your children to knit then I would start with scarves.

I wanted to teach my boys to knit but it didn't caught on with them. Here are a few pictures of them knitting. They look so tense! :D

Easy Bags For Boys To Sew

My youngest sewing his bag

A while ago I bought an Elna Mini sewing machine to teach sewing to women. But yesterday when my sewing machine broke right in the middle of a sewing project, I took the mini out to use. This was the first time that I used it and I was impressed. It sews very nicely. Since it's a basic beginner's model, it runs slowly so that it's easily controlled. So I thought to myself, 'This will be excellent for my boys to use.'
