Here's how I care for the things I have been knitting. I think when people try to learn to knit they choose the wrong pattern and the wrong supplies.
When a person is ready, they will be able to learn more complex stitches. If you are beginner then start with a no pattern, this means just start by knitting with a combination of just two basic stitches, knit and purl. If the fibers are first aligned by combing them, the yarn is smoother and called a worsted; by contrast, if the fibers are carded but not combed, the yarn is fuzzier and called woolen-spun.
To begin you can knit a nice pashmina style stole, just with three hundred stitches, if garter stitch means only knit stitches no purl stitches. Of these types, wool is generally favored for knitting, chiefly owing to its superior elasticity, warmth and (sometimes) felting; however, wool is generally less convenient to clean and some people are allergic to it. Crochet hooks and a darning needle are often useful in binding off or in joining two knitted pieces edge-to-edge.
