STEM in Knitting Creating A Design
by Anna Boyd
This is the final lesson of 4 lessons. In this lesson we are creating our design from lesson 3. This is a project-type lesson, so it is not done in a traditional manner. Students will create either with yarn or paper swatches, their design, analyze and reflect on their thinking, and compare their math with their final results.
Optional aspects include a science fair project but with STEM in Knitting instead. Links to helpful resources and the other lessons are included!
