Do you have a bunch of yarn hanging around, just looking for a project? I was given some left over yarn from both of my grandmothers. One did crochet, the other a knitter. I used the yarn to do a little sweedish weaving.
All you need is Huck cloth (a couple yards, around $10 is what I spent), a yarn needle, yarn and a pattern. Zig zag the edges. Wash and dry the cloth. Find the center and begin the pattern (a friend gave me a pattern). When you're done, sew the sides and fray the edges.
Here's my grandmother learning. Although she said she'd stick with knitting.
It is so sweet to see learning go up generations as well as down.
