Now it's a fun, creative hobby for anyone. 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.
Once the knitted piece is finished, the remaining live stitches are "cast off. Knitting has been around for thousands of years, and probably always will be. But it is all part of the process, and most knitters, no matter how goal-oriented in their daily lives, face this part of the knitting experience with cool composure and aplomb.
In fact what type of knitting yarn to use is one of the most important decisions a craftsperson has to make. Hem top should be knitted by taking a stitch from the first row, and should be hanged on the needle. Finally, an ever growing source of information on both knitting patterns and the best knitting yarns to use is the Internet.
Brainstorm, and figure out which way of teaching would be best for you and your students! You'll be amazed at how much faster the second, third, and fourth version of the same pattern can be.
