travel knits

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. Knitting parties also are becoming popular in small and large communities around the U.

Rayon and acetate fibers are also produced from cellulose mainly derived from trees. Cable patterns are made by permuting the order of stitches; although one or two stitches may be held by hand or knit out of order, cables of three or more generally require a cable needle. But mistakes can also be a good thing.

Different sizes of socks can be made in the sock-knitting machine. There are also different types of knitting needles like Addi knitting needles, Clover knitting needles, Misc knitting needles, Crystal Palace, Rosewood and HiyaHiya New wales can be begun from any of the edges of a knitted fabric; this is known as picking up stitches and is the basis for entrelac, in which the wales run perpendicular to one another in a checkerboard pattern.

So, if you want to slow down, and find meaning in your life again, try knitting. For more knit patterns be sure to click around this site!
