teach me how to knit

Here's how I care for the things I have been knitting. In very simple cases, knitting can be done without tools, using only the fingers to do these tasks; however, knitting is usually carried out using tools such as knitting needles, knitting machines or rigid frames.

Now count the stitches to make sure you haven't dropped any and turn the work around putting the knitting needle with the stitches on in your left hand to start the next row. Sometimes, the yarns being plied are fed at different rates, so that one yarn loops around the other, as in boucl . A beginner is naturally clumsy because they are not comfortable with using two needles.

The color-scheme of a yarn is sometimes called its colorway. Different combinations of knit and purl stitches, along with more advanced techniques, generate fabrics of considerably variable consistency, from gauzy to very dense, from highly stretchy to relatively stiff, from flat to tightly curled, and so on. Knitting teaches you to let go of your aspirations of perfection.
