Knitting parties also are becoming popular in small and large communities around the U. Knitting may be done by hand or by machine.
Knitting is an art from ancient times. We're all crazy busy, and finding time to make hand-knit gifts might seem completely impossible. Knitted garments are often more form-fitting than woven garments, since their elasticity allows them to follow the body's curvature closely; by contrast, curvature is introduced into most woven garments only with sewn darts, flares, gussets and gores, the seams of which lower the elasticity of the woven fabric still further.
Since a typical piece of knitted fabric may have hundreds of wales, warp knitting is typically done by machine, whereas weft knitting is done by both hand and machine. Short and tall stitches may also alternate within a row, forming a fish-like oval pattern. This pattern looks very nice especially for sweaters.
Even if you're a pretty proficient knitter, this isn't the time to learn a new technique or work with a skinny fingering-weight yarn that will take forever to knit up.
