Welcome to the wonderful world of knitting! Even if you've been here for a while, there is always something new about this most fascinating craft! For many people one of the most enjoyable aspects of the craft is browsing through the many yarns available in a knitting shop.
Flat knitting, which is done on two straight needles, produces a length of cloth, while circular knitting, which is done on circular or double-pointed needles, produces a seamless tube. Knitters have developed methods for giving the illusion of a circular wale, such as appear in Celtic knots, but these are inexact approximations. Laces are provided from Iceland and Estonia.
On the wrong side, the ends of the loops are visible, both the tops and bottoms, creating a much more bumpy texture sometimes called reverse stockinette. It is not done like knitting on needles, it is done on your fingers. The opposing twist relieves some of the yarns' tendency to curl up and produces a thicker, balanced yarn.
It doesn't all happen at once. All it consists of is knitting one row, then purling the next, and so on, and so on.
