When I first heard about arm knitting, I was a little confused. For one, I wasn’t sure how the logistics of using your arms as knitting needles would work out. For another, wouldn’t you only be able to make huge knitting projects that way? As it turns out, I was wrong on both accounts! The way I pictured arm knitting in my head was completely different than how it plays out in real life, and while arm knitting is great for larger projects like blankets, it can be used to make scarves and other smaller accessories, as well! Once I found out how quick these projects work up, I was hooked – and the best part is, it’s super easy to learn how to arm knit.
