So I’ve seen head canons of Bucky post Winter Soldier learning to knit but I loved the idea of him learning as a child to make warm things for Steve to wear. Steve was stuck in bed a lot and Bucky would sit watch and knitting gave him something productive to do that maybe might stop Steve getting sick next time.
Knitting was still cheaper than buying clothing at this time. These days it costs me more in yarn than it does to go and buy something in the shop.
I hope to get around to a series of Bucky knitting through out the years. Probably in the war and post Winter Soldier too.
