How to Thumb Purl Video




Videos: I am now providing monthly videos on knitting techniques. This month's video is: "How to Thumb Purl".
Note: There are currently two Kiki Geiger Youtube channels. The channel with videos for my classes won't let me access it to add or edit videos but they are still viewable. The one with only two videos at this time is where I will create and add new videos. In the meantime, I put all my videos here. Just enter "video" in the Search box, and they will all pull up. 




Have a great summer and I will post new patterns as they come out. Happy Knitting!

Blossom Cocoon




Happy February and here's a new pattern - available free for a introductory period. An easy pattern that can be knit either in the round or flat. Both directions are given. This is beautiful in any baby yarn (size 3 yarn), simply choose the yarn you want to showcase and let the Stockinette stitch do the rest. (Machine knitters can easily convert the flat knitting directions.)
