In this brief article we aim to just give a basic understanding of knitting needles, their sizing and what you need to look out for. Now it's a fun, creative hobby for anyone.

In knitting certain articles of clothing, especially larger ones like sweaters, the final knitted garment will be made of several knitted pieces, with individual sections of the garment knit separately and then sewn together. For large or complex patterns, it is sometimes difficult to keep track of which stitch should be knit in an particular way; therefore, several tools have been developed to identify the number of a particular row or stitch, including circular stitch markers, hanging markers, extra yarn and counters. The fact that knitting is such an easily portable activity also allows for us to mitigate stressful situations.

Different factors may be more significant than others for different knitting projects, so there is no one "best" yarn. Although they are mirror images in form, right- and left-plaited stitches are functionally equivalent. A slip knot is where you wrap the yarn over the needle from front to back, over the working yarn, and through loop, pull taut but not tight.

Be sure to try using other available resources, such as local craft and hobby stores. Patterns for knitting provide a strong outline and foundation for starting any new knitting project.
