Beading

I was trying to have a quiet knit yesterday afternoon, something that is not always easy when you have an eager to help 2 year old. I wondered would Joa be old enough and dexterous enough to try beading so I got down our box of wooden beads, a big, blunt darning needle and a scrap of yarn and let him have a go.
 





He really enjoyed himself and sat quietly for a good while making himself a long string of brightly coloured wooden beads. Watching him quietly work reminded me of how quickly he is growing into a little boy! Oh how I love my curly headed wee man!

    What a lovely boy, and you must be proud because see what he made. Wow I hope you will save the neckless and show him when he is a big boy.
    Have a lovely day.
