Knit One Purl Two happens to be one of the most well known knitting terms, well known by non-knitters and knitters alike. Knitting is no longer only for grandmothers or just any mothers.
There are actually hundreds of combinations of stitch patterns. Before you start with a pattern as a beginner, you should know the basic stitches including the knit stitch and purl stitch. The first step is to setup a basket or bonnet which makes the needles move continuously.
A third but less common method, called combination knitting, may also be used. Now count the stitches to make sure you haven't dropped any and turn the work around putting the knitting needle with the stitches on in your left hand to start the next row. When it's time to move on to a more difficult stitch, try out the party wrap pattern.
Not only will this provide a nice social outlet, but your new knitting friends may also be able to help you locate and use new knitting patterns and new ideas for knitting projects. Keep YOUR knitting on the "Cutting Edge" with FREE patterns.
