    Knitting Nancy

    So I was having a dig earlier and found my old knitting Nancy...I also have plenty of wool and would like to get started...I remember loving this as avhild and remember finding the technique very simple back then...yet I can not for the life of me remember how to start it? There is very limited infor online about this and I would much rather see a video than read how to...there doesn't seem to be one though...Could anyone explain?

    Try searching for french knitting, rather than knitting nancy (but no, I can't remember how to start it either, despite using one a lot as a kiddy!).
