Princess Kate's Knitting Fail: A Royal Oops!
26 Oct
Summary
- Princess Catherine attempted knitting for Prince George but failed.
- She missed Prince George while he was away at boarding school.
- The Princess enjoys hobbies like beekeeping and wild swimming.
The Princess of Wales has revealed a less-than-successful foray into knitting, admitting her attempts to create a handmade jumper for her son, Prince George, were unsuccessful. She confessed in 2013, while pregnant with George, that she was trying to learn the craft but was "really bad" at it. By early 2020, she shared that she had abandoned knitting a "very special jumper" for George after getting halfway through.
More recently, the Princess spoke about missing Prince George, who is now boarding at Eton College. During a visit to a charity shop, she mentioned looking forward to his return for the school's half-term break. This personal revelation comes amid her engagement in various other cherished hobbies.
Despite her knitting difficulties, Princess Catherine actively pursues other interests. She is known for her passion for beekeeping at the family's Norfolk home and has taken up playing padel with her parents. Additionally, she has expressed a love for wild swimming, even describing it as "the colder the water, the better," a sentiment that her husband, Prince William, finds amusing.
