When I have spent hours working on knitting a sweater, I want to make sure it looks as good after a dozen washes as it did the day I was knitting it. I wanted to set out some basic knitting instructions as a refresher so here it is.
Knitting is the process done by the loops, and these loops are stitched through each others and this way, you will get different patterns of the cloths and fabrics. Some people prefer circular needles because they are more comfortable to use and you can knit both in the round or back and forth like straight needles. A piece of knitting begins with the process of casting on (also known as "binding on"), which involves the initial creation of the stitches on the needle.
Double-pointed knitting needles usually come in sets of four (US size 1, on right) or five (US size 8, on left). These balls are usually sold with yarn bands which will give the details of that yarn which you are purchasing. I then lay the knitting on a flat clean towel.
Even a beginner can make a simple scarf with novelty yarn in just a few hours, and have it look just fantastic. For more knit patterns be sure to click around this site!
