Our newest member of the knitting board family is only 6″ long and 1.5″ wide. It’s fine gauge which means the intarsia designs really come out looking great! The spacing between the pins is 5/16″ like the small gauge boards, but the 2 rows of pins are only 1″ apart. It’s so much fun to work with because you don’t even need to put it down-just turn your hand around to hook over the 2 sides. Portable?? Oh, yes, it can fit into your smaller handbags, and go with you everywhere. Fun projects? It comes with 7 easy projects just to get you going and more are coming to the free library every week. So, if you’re looking for a great gift for yourself, or maybe thinking ahead for the holidays, check out this cute little package.
It comes with a new! knit hook and pattern booklet with illustrated instructions and the 7 starter projects. Lots of Fun!

I got mine this week. This is a very cute little knitting board. Gotta start playing with it.
The pattern book that comes with it is very nice too!
Looking forward more fun patterns!

This is my first knitting board and I love it! However, I am having trouble understanding the instructions for Benny Bear. Need more pictures!

Hi, I know this is a late response, but are you still having problems? If so, please let me know and I will work with you. Maybe a faster resolve would be on the discussion group under patterns. I check that daily. thanks, Pat

This is my first knitting board too. I find the directions frustrating and uninformative. I’m understanding more from the website, but it does not have a pattern for the bear, which is absolutely impossible to understand from the book.

Hi, you are the second person to say that the Bear project is not clear in the instructions. I will go thru it by 12-12-09 and try to make things better. So sorry for the frustration. If you want to email me direct at pat@knittingboard.com and let me know if you have specific questions, we can work together with it. I knit him and wrote the pattern and would very much appreciate knowing how to make it better. thanks, Pat

I’ve had my tadpole for about 2 weeks now and I so love it! there are no wing nuts or any other metal pieces to get caught in your knitting and it knits so nice and tight,this is probably my favorite one and the one I’ll be taking on the plane with me in the summer.

One more thing… this little knitting board is so great,the tight knit and no metal pieces other than the needles, could there possibly be more of its kind in bigger sizes? not that I need more knitting boards, I have 3, but if there were… yeah I’d probably cave and buy some more! :)
