Want to learn to knit? Learning to knit online can be daunting. It’s how I learned (the most recent time), so I get it. There is so much information out there!
I’m working on a series to help beginners learn to knit, from casting on to fixing mistakes to the very first project. It’s going to be a fun adventure! To make accessing the lessons easier, I’ve rounded up the links here.
Series One: Learning to Knit
Getting Started: What You’ll Need
Knitting 101: Casting On and Knitting
Knitting 101: Identifying and Fixing Mistakes
Knitting 101: Casting Off and Weaving in Ends

Knitting 101: Reading a Pattern
Knitting 101 – Hats: The Calculations
Hello!! I’m a knitter, but I haven’t learned how to completely read patterns yet. Can you offer some tips/advice? BTW great blog, keep it up!
This is going to be one of my topics soon! Scan through it before you get started and note any terms or techniques you don’t know or recognise. Then, go on YouTube or elsewhere on the Web to learn how to do the technique. Bookmark it, too, so you can find it when you need it.
I find I have an easier time with patterns and charts when I block out the row/round above and below. That way I only see one round/row at a time. Hope that helps! 🙂
Great! Thanks for the tips, they should help.
Love your blog! Thanks for stopping by my blog.
