Annie and the Swiss Cheese Scarf

Annie has her heart set on learning to knit — but it isn’t as easy as she hoped. With every dropped stitch, her scarf looks a little more like Swiss cheese than something she can wear. Can Annie slow down, take a breath, and keep trying?

This beautifully illustrated story celebrates patience, perseverance, and the joy of creating something with your own two hands. A wonderful read-aloud for little ones who are just beginning to explore making things themselves — and a gentle reminder for grown-ups, too, that every stitch (and every mistake) is part of the journey.
