Here's how I care for the things I have been knitting. Let's start with some basic patterns.
However, these numbers can differ from one country to another. It is not done like knitting on needles, it is done on your fingers. It has slowed somewhat, but its enduring nature is a testament to both the relaxation it bestows on the practitioner, and the joy of craftsmanship.
Although the mechanics are different from casting on, there is a similar variety of methods. I read somewhere that if it's mild enough but effective enough for my hair it must be good enough for my knitting. A second potential difficulty is that the knitted piece will slide off the tapered end of the needles when unattended; this is prevented by "point protectors" that cap the tapered ends.
Yarns are grouped by thickness into six categories: superfine, fine, light, medium, bulky and superbulky; quantitatively, thickness is measured by the number of wraps per inch (WPI). The third needle type consists of circular needles, which are long, flexible double-pointed needles.
The place where smart knitters gather resources and share stories. Knit it like you would knit any stitch.
