Crafting

So recently I have been trying to get a few things knitted, smocked, and quilted for the new little guy and a few for Henry. It is nice to see these projects come together, but what has been even more fun is the interest Henry has taken in it all.

He insists on joining in on the crafting. If I am smocking he gets his on smocking supplies out. He has a piece of pleated material and a threaded needle. He will sit right by me and poke the needle through the fabric randomly and often unthreads the needle.
The same goes for knitting and he loves having his own knitting needles and ball of yarn. I put a few loops of the needle for him and he moves them back and forth. mostly he play with the ball of yarn and pretends to wrap the yarn on the needle.
He tries to mimic the process I am doing and pays very close attention to the details it is really quite amazing how observant he is with processes. He sure has a lot of fun even if he does not quite get all the steps; before long he will have it all figured out.
