Finger knitting, the kind where you knit without any needles, is a great idea to help young ones learn knitting. And this rainbow scarf by Marlena is a perfect first project for it’s eye catching colors and effect.
You will need lots of yarn, of course, and as many different colors as you, or your teen wants. The steps are pretty detailed, and the final result is quite ‘rad’.
