So far we’ve learned to cast on, garter stitch, slipped stitch, bind of or cast off and stockinette stitch.
Time to learn another basic stitch: rib stitch. You basically already know how to do this stitch. It uses two basic stitches, knit and purl.
Check it out!
So far we’ve learned to cast on, garter stitch, slipped stitch and bind of or cast off.
Now you’re ready to learn purl.
Let’s start!
Now put into practice all the knitting you’ve learned so far.
Cast on some stitches on your needle. For instance 35 or 40 stitches, stretch them a bit on your needle to see if that’s the width you’d like your scarf to be.
If too wide, undo a few. If too narrow add a few more stitches.
Knit as many rows as you need for a scarf in stockinette stitch and when done bind off the piece as you learned above.
I posted a question on Facebook and Instagram about knitting, crochet and embroidery tutorials and many of you were interested in learning so this is my first knitting tutorial.
It’s aimed at the total beginner.
This week we’ll start learning a single cast on in preparation for garter stitch on the next video.
What do you think?
What about my quilting tutorials? Quilting tutorials will continue as before.
