Good one
Combines two of my favorite things -- fiber arts and a trick question. Thanks!
Must of used her hands as well.
very funny! i,ve never heard of someone doing it without needles too!
I disagree with answer. She told her friend that she USED 100% wool to knit it. She did NOT say the "sweater" was 100% wool, or was MADE of 100% wool. So technically, she WAS correct in her statement.
That's cute! I got it after I read the hint.

My mind processed it as, made a sweater of 100% wool.
She used wool of 100% but it does not say that she excluded anything else - not on the buttton 4me - sorry
