Description: The Young Knitter is a painting by the French artist Jean Simeon Chardin. It was painted in 1739 and is now in the collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris. The painting depicts a young girl sitting in a chair and knitting. She is wearing a simple dress and a white cap. Her hair is pulled back in a bun. The girl is surrounded by her knitting supplies, including a basket of yarn and a pair of scissors. The painting is a fine example of Chardin’s skill as a painter.
