When I have spent hours working on knitting a sweater, I want to make sure it looks as good after a dozen washes as it did the day I was knitting it. 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.
The knitting of new stitches occurs only at the tapered ends, and needles with lighted tips have been sold to allow knitters to knit in the dark. In securing the previous stitch in a wale, the next stitch can pass through the previous loop either from below or above. For this reason, knitting was initially developed for garments that must be elastic or stretch in response to the wearer's motions, such as socks and hosiery.
In lace knitting, the pattern is formed by making small, stable holes in the fabric, generally with yarn overs. Although they are mirror images in form, right- and left-plaited stitches are functionally equivalent. You can also knit mittens, scarves using the sock-knitting machine.
Brainstorm, and figure out which way of teaching would be best for you and your students! It doesn't all happen at once.
