I don't think she WAS knitting
When I saw the ep I did not think that Claire was actually knitting. One, she had no yarn and two, the knitting needle she had just looked like a long stick. I believe that knitting requires two needles. Crocheting uses only one crochet hook, but it has a hook on one end. I did not think that what Claire had looked like knitting needles or a crochet hook. I think it was just part of the mind game the others were playing with her. They handed her the bootie and told her to "knit" it and in her drugged up state she imagined she was knitting.
I thought it was adorable when Aaron put the bootie in his mouth. It is just what my 6-month old daughter would do, although not entirely age-appropriate behavior for the age Aaron is supposed to be.
