Knitters were first believed to have begun their craft in the first few centuries AD. I wanted to set out some basic knitting instructions as a refresher so here it is.
Smaller items, such as socks and hats, are usually knit in one piece on double-pointed needles or circular needles. 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. So, why learn how to knit when you can easily buy finished fabrics in the marketplace?
Depending on their size and shape, the rigid frames are called knitting boards, knitting rings (also called knitting looms) or knitting spools (also known as knitting knobbies, knitting nancies, or corkers). Different factors may be more significant than others for different knitting projects, so there is no one "best" yarn. Some people prefer circular needles because they are more comfortable to use and you can knit both in the round or back and forth like straight needles.
Take your time and understand the information on this site and you will be able to knit anything you want. So, if you want to slow down, and find meaning in your life again, try knitting.
