kit: Knitting Nancy

Spool knitters have a variety of names including corker, peg knitter, knitting knobby, knitting spool, knitting mushroom, Knitting Nancy, and Bizzy Lizzy. The process of knitting on a spool or similar piece of equipment is also referred to as French Knitting. Most spool knitters have four or five pegs around the edge of the spool. Spear’s Games touted that their Knitting Nancy was a handy knitting apparatus that will help “to make beautiful little woolen toys, table mats, bags, and many other articles useful and ornamental.”
