What is fingerknitting?

Finger knitting is a craft very similar to basic knitting that most people are familiar with, but it consists of using fingers instead of needles. It is a great way for beginners to learn how to accomplish this art, and make some unique works of art in the process. It consists of using yarn, as many colors as wanted, and wrapping it around the fingers to form patterns. Once the main patterns are formed, they are then removed from the appendages and the steps arerepeated until the entire project is completed.



it is a form of knitting where a knitted cord is created using only hands and fingers during the entire process, instead of knitting needles or other traditional tools.

Though finger knitting may be performed by people of all ages, it is cited as a teaching tool for children because of its comparative simplicity in contrast to traditional knitting. It effectively demonstrates that knitting involves a series of loops strung together. Finger knitting may also be safely practiced on airplanes prohibiting knitting needles.
