I&#8217;m also able to give her some green wool from my stash and I printed out a few pages of directions.  I&#8217;m going to have her knit a gauge sample and then I found a simple hat pattern that I think she&#8217;ll like.  There might be simpler first projects&#8230;.but I know she likes hats like this so better to be knitting something she would like to finish. <\/p>\n<p>The only bummer is that she is about 3 hours away so I&#8217;ll see her this month &#8211; next month for her baby shower &#8211; in April for arrival of baby \ud83d\ude42 &#8211; and then sometime this summer we&#8217;ll have a long weekend or week camping.
