Master Knitting Instructions the Easy Way
Introduction
Learning to knit can be simple once you understand the basics. Most knitting instructions revolve around just two essential stitches: the knit stitch and the purl stitch. Mastering these will enable you to tackle a wide range of knitting patterns with ease.
The Knit Stitch
To start, hold the needle with cast-on stitches in your left hand. Insert the right needle between the first and second stitches, ensuring the right needle is beneath the left. Keep the yarn at the back of your work. Wrap the yarn around the right needle from back to front, letting it rest between the needles.
Next, pull the yarn through the first stitch to bring it to the front, and then slip the old stitch off the left needle. The new stitch should now be on the right needle. For better control, drape the yarn over your right forefinger. Repeat this process until all stitches have been transferred to the right needle. Once completed, count the stitches to ensure accuracy, then turn your work around, moving the needle with stitches to your left hand, and begin the next row.
The Purl Stitch
The purl stitch is equally important and will often appear in your knitting patterns. Start with the needle holding your cast-on stitches in your left hand. This time, let the yarn hang in front. Insert the right needle into the front of the first stitch from right to left.
Wrap the yarn around the right needle tip, crossing over the two needles and letting it hang in front again. Slide the right needle down and back to pull the new yarn loop from front to back through the old stitch. Slip the old stitch off the left needle. You should now have a purl stitch on the right needle with the yarn hanging in front.
Repeat this until you've transferred all stitches to the right needle. Count your stitches again to ensure none are dropped. Flip the work around, placing the needle with stitches in your left hand, and proceed with the next row.
