Two parts of knitting technique that was really difficult to find out (and maybe I still don't have it right):
1. Wind the yarn counterclockwise around the needle while both knitting and purling.
2. Bring the yarn forward between the two needles, not over or around them, when doing combination stitches like seed stitch and rib.

Hmmm, wind the yarn counterclockwise? For both knit and purl? I also am a begining knitter and what I have been doing is for knit, counterclockwise, but for purl clockwise from the bottom. It works for me. Now I'm trying to figure out how to increase.
ReplyDeleteUh, I looked at what I was doing, it's all counterclockwise and, yes, I am a idiot.
