Learning how to start knitting for beginners has never been so easy!
A slip knot gets the yarn onto your knitting needles. It is almost always the first step before casting on. Already a slip knot pro? Go ahead and skip ahead to casting on!
Casting on creates the very first row of your project. We’ll show you a great beginner-friendly technique that is quick, easy, and creates a nice sturdy edge for your knits!
The knit stitch is the very first stitch to learn! It’s so important that the whole craft is named after this technique. Next up… purling!
The purl stitch is the second stitch to learn. Once you learn how to knit and purl you’ll be able to whip up almost any basic beginner-friendly knitting pattern.
Also called casting off this is how you get the stitches off your needles while creating a finished edge at the same time. We’ll show you the easiest way to bind off in this quick tutorial!
