Description
A small plastic frame which you wound yarn on to. This would knit a panel of any length. Don't know what you were expected to do with all these plain, long, lengths of knitting!

I bought one from Spotlight the other day for my daughter, but the instructions were very unclear.. and I can't work out exactly the right technique of how to use it. Any help appreciated.

i adore my knitting jenny and use it to make hats, scarves, baby blankets, doll blankets and doll sleeping bags. Try going to Michael's or another craft store and ask about the Nifty Knitter, a similar gizmo. Usually they have directions that you can look at or ask them for help.

Haha, it took me forever to get about 6 inches of it, and then I gave up because it would have taken me the rest of my life to make anything :)

I really enjoyed my Knitting Jenny back in the day...lol Made lots of cool scarves and hats! I thought it was packed away but I haven't located it and am about ready to go find one on Ebay India... :{ (Maybe I'll go check the garage again first) ... It isn't as hard as it looks and once you get going... it's really cool... just be patient... and have fun with it!!

you can make bitty doll scarves or sew it to sweaters in patterns, like a monogram "L" for "Laverne"!! They sell them in craft stores now-in the knitting section.

I had a Knitting Jenny when I was younger and just loved it. If you search for "Frame Knitting", "Loom Knitting" and "Rake Knitting" on the Internet, you'll find LOTS of sites dedicated to the grown-up version of this art form.

I am a 52 year old guy and I had one when I was about 12 years old. That was 40 years go already. I loved it and remember it well. But I did not like when my older brother made fun of me because I was a guy knitting. He even made a short song about it on the piano.
