[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Audio knitting patterns

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

I would start her out with a scarf, with just the knit stitch.
See what cast on she knows.  Maybe teach her the knit cast on.
This is the easiest thing and the length does not really matter.  She can hold it up to another scarf, for measurement, if she can not measure.

She will be happy to be able to make something she can use or give as a gift!

The next easiest thing is the grand ma's dish cloth

Cast on 4.
K2 yo k to the end of the row.
Repeat until you have the with you want.  The diagonal of the cloth.  About 90 stitches or so.

Decrease
K k2 tog yo k2 tog k to end of row
Repeat until you have 4 stitches
Cast off

My new knitting friend is looking for simple patterns.  I have lots, but she doesn't have email, or even a computer.  She also doesn't know braille.

I thought I'd check NLS audio.  Does anyone have recommendations? I never use audio patterns, so haven't a clue about them.

Tracy
