If you are looking for the perfect gift for that special newborn baby, why not consider a knit baby blanket? Knitting is worked in rounds (the equivalent of rows in flat knitting) in a spiral.
Double-pointed needles are tapered at both ends, which allows them to be knit from either end. This is my version of instructions for the two basic knitting stitches but I have found that it is hard to use a few written instructions. The strength of the spun yarn against breaking is determined by the amount of twist, the length of the fibers and the thickness of the yarn.
It differentiates your work from anyone else's that might be knit from the same pattern. In securing the previous stitch in a wale, the next stitch can pass through the previous loop either from below or above. You should always use the same tape measure when making a garment.
Most new knitters should start with some of the basic patterns listed above and work on mastering basic stitches. All it consists of is knitting one row, then purling the next, and so on, and so on.
