In this brief article we aim to just give a basic understanding of knitting needles, their sizing and what you need to look out for. Learning how to knit is easy today with so many online resources.
In the simplest knitted fabrics, all of the stitches are knit or purl; these fabrics are denoted as stockinette and reverse stockinette, respectively. Sometimes, the yarns being plied are fed at different rates, so that one yarn loops around the other, as in boucl . Sport weight yarns are also used in the machine.
Knitting may be hand made or machine made. I hope you could follow my basic knitting instructions. A beginner is naturally clumsy because they are not comfortable with using two needles.
You may also want to consider finding a local knitting group or meeting online others who share your hobby. You also will usually want to stick with chunky yarns (this is a good use for "novelty" yarns, which have lots of texture and are usually thick but also light and fluffy), since they knit up quickly so you can make more presents.
