Knitting Doll

This little guy has many names. It sometimes goes by "corker" or sometimes "French knitter", but whatever you call it, call it into service when it is time for a first knitting experience for a small child. 
Similar to finger knitting this gadget will produce a knitted tube that could be a snake with the help of some googly eyes, or jewelry, or could be sewn into a variety of shapes.
