This is a form of knitting using a knitting device called a knitting nanny's. (In Germany they're called Niles) It is a hand held tool called a laced. The yarn is wound around the prongs on the lust, in a pattern that forms the stitches. For pictures and instructions see The Lost Art of Knitting Nuances below.
I believe it is related to the new craze of the "NAFTA Knitter".
French knitting is also called "spool knitting" or corking. The "spool" is basically a tube with four tines at one end. The yarn is looped over each individual tine resulting in what is basically a knitted rope. These ropes are often sewn together in a spiral shape, flat for a rug or in a curve cone shape for a hat. Many people used to make their own spools by taking an empty spool of thread(a wooden one of course) and hammer four nails into one end. Knitting frames are often a similar idea, especially the round ones.

Frenchknittingor knitting with a spool begins with two rounds of yarn around the pegs and a tail dropping through the opposite end of the spool.
Hold the spool in one hand and engage both ends of the yarn with the tension you want.
With your pick, pick up the lower round and loop it over the upper round on the peg, then tug the tail. Moving the yarn clockwise, knit another loop after winding the yarn on the back of the peg just knitted.

You can if you seam up the side and it it is a great thing to do for beginners when you have the right pattern, which is the difficult part. Alternatively, if you do not wish to use circular needles you can use DPNs (double pointed needles) to knit in the round. Often in hat patterns which use circular needles you will need DPNs anyway, so it is good to have some of these when you knit in the round.

No, Madame Defarge does not knit blankets for the French soldiers. Instead, she spends her time knitting a register of those to be executed during the French Revolution. It becomes a symbol of her ruthless and vengeful nature.

She bought lots of red yarn to knit a warm blanket. The sorority sisters are a very closely knit group. The dress was made of a clingy knit that flattered her flawless figure quite well. Grandma loved to knit sweaters for us when we were growing up, but today she seldom has the time.
