Beginner Crafts - No Knit or Crochet Needed

[Shandeh]

Are you interested in experimenting with yarn, but don't know how to knit or crochet?
You will LOVE creating scarves with the new Bernat Knit or Knot yarns!

The yarns are beautiful and colorful, and will allow you to quickly create stylish and fun scarves that you will be proud to wear. No knit or crochet skills necessary.





You'll find the Knit or Knot yarns hanging from pegs in your local craft shop. They might be in a separate area from the usual yarns for knitting and crocheting.

It's very easy to make scarves with this yarn. You just remove the label, and have fun!

Here are some wonderful videos, by Crystal from Bernat, to help you get started.

There is another way to use the Knit or Knot yarns, which involves a tiny bit more skill.
It's called Finger Knitting, and is easy and fun to do.

All you need is a skein of Bernat Sophia yarn, a pair of scissors, and your hands!

Here is a video by Crystal with Bernat, to show how to finger knit with Sophia yarn.

After watching some of the videos, I've been inspired to make some of those scarves. I've seen the Knit or Knot yarns at Hobby Lobby, and was tempted.
