I wanted to set out some basic knitting in Knitting is worked in rounds (the equivalent of rows in flat knitting) in a spiral.
Heathered yarns contain small amounts of fibre of different colours, while tweed yarns may have greater amounts of different coloured fibres. These yarns can be used in the sock-knitting machine. You decide how long (approximately) it should take for someone to learn the basics of knitting, and then become intermediate knitters, and on to advanced.
The knit stitch is formed by making loops which interweave with one another; one after another. Long loops can also be drawn out and secured, forming a "shaggy" texture to the fabric; this is known as loop knitting. All in all choosing your knitting yarn is a pleasurable experience.
A yarn's usefulness for a knitting project is judged by several factors, such as its loft (its ability to trap air), its resilience (elasticity under tension), its washability and colorfastness, its hand (its feel, particularly softness vs. The tips of the outermost, longest one is US size 5 and chrome-plated for speed, whereas the innermost tips are wood and US size 15; the middle red metal tips are US size 9.
You also will usually want to stick with chunky yarns (this is a good use for "novelty" yarns, which have lots of texture and are usually thick but also light and fluffy), since they knit up quickly so you can make more presents. It doesn't all happen at once.
