Want to make something other than scarfs!
Thanks
Need to learn to knit socks. Tired of hats snd scarfs.
want to learn how to knit socks
I agree 100%
I want to know how to knit hats
Socks are definitely a nice knitted item, but are a very advanced project to attempt. It involves knitting in the round with double pointed needles, splitting from the round to knit a heel flap with a reinforced stitch, picking up stitches along the side of the heel, and knitting angled gussets along it. It will take some time to work up to socks. 🙂
I disagree that socks are an advanced project. I was an adventurous beginner and my third project was socks. They can be simple and except for the toe’s Kirchner stitch, fairly straightforward. Use magic loop, 1×1 rib or 2×2 rib for an inch or inch and a half, whatever your preference, then knit in the round using the magic loop for as much leg as you wish, do Fish Lips Kiss heel (paid pattern on Ravelry) and knit to the toe. Finish with Kirchner stitch. All of which is available on YouTube, except for the paid pattern for the heel, but you can find other heel patterns as well. Once you master a basic sock, do 2 at a time (2AAT)! I like Mina’s Two At A Time Socks pattern available on Ravelry.
I want to learn how to knit socks cuff down on circular needles.

How to use circular needles on sleeves
I hope I’ll be able to watch the series and re-learn some of the basics, after taking a holiday from knitting to work on big needlepoint projects.
do you have this for left handers?
Hello Lynn,
Here’s what the experts had to say about your question:
We show the basic stitches with the yarn held in both the left hand and right hand. If you are looking for truly left-handed knitting (where everything is knit in the mirror image), I recommend checking out this Craftsy class: https://www.craftsy.com/class/left-handed-knitting/
Please let us know if you have any further questions
Sincerely,

When I started to knit, I was instructed to learn right handed because you use both hands. So I did! I haven’t had any problems with knitting right handed. I am very left handed! When I crochet, I go opposite direction when I crochet! Shirley
Also, want to learn to knit something other than a scarf.
Thank you. I learned to knit years ago but preferred to crochet because I was faster at it. But now I am back to needing to knit for re-enactment items.
Looking forward to being inspired
This is perfect! Need to strengthen my basic skills. Returning to knitting and crocheting during this pandemic!
I’m a shepherd and love the wool the flock produces and want to strengthen my basics to be able to knit more complicated patterns and eventually design my own.
I’m looking forward to increasing my knitting skills.
Can’t wait to start. This will be a refresher course for me…and part of it will be new.
I do hope I can access this when I have time available. My main goal at this time is to knit winter stocking.
Looking forward to the lessons!
Hello. New to the circle

Love to knitt
Thank you for this series. I would also like some advice on how to knit socks with sock yarn. I have struggled with it. I also have noticed that many videos show the continental way of knitting and I knit the English way.
Such a Great opportunity…..looking forward to the sessions😊

I am a long time knitter, but thought this might just be a good review.
Taught myself to knit during Covid.. would love to be able to knit socks without heels
Want to learn to knit evenly
I used to knit and crochet a long time ago and want to do it again.
I hope to learn how to knit properly. I am left handed but knit right handed.
I just started knitting again. I am making a sweater for my friend’s granddaughter who is 8 months. The size will be one year to 18 months. I decided on the 7 hour sweater. Having trouble on row 6. Every other stitch, you knit one and increase one, finishing the row with 51 stitches. Started the sweater with 37 stitches. I am tired of ripping out the first six rows and starting over to get the right count on the stitches.
Hi Susan,
Here is what our expert had to say:
Because the pattern is free on a blog, I was able to find the pattern and read it.
You have 37 stitches on row 5, as you said.
Row 6 says to “increase 1 in next st, K1.” In order for the math to work to 51 stitches, that means you need to do something like “kfb, k1” for that part. Kfb is knit front & back into the same stitch. Basically, just make sure you are increasing 14 stitches on row 6 using whatever increase method you like best!
Let us know if other questions come up!
Sincerely,
Codi

nice idea
I’d like to learn to knit complicated stitches
not very good knitter, self taught more or less, was taught to “knit a Christmas stocking” but not really taught “how to knit”, been trying to self teach ever since…slowly, via written instructions mainly as I can only be on the computer a limited amount of time because of eye trouble/it causes me migraines. my next step is to try to make socks that fit people!

Apparently I learned how to cast on weird. I learned some sort of hybrid between longtail and knitted. I learned the technique of the longtail, but the tail is at the bottom of my cast-on row. Is there a name for that?
I am interesting in knitting
Forgot how to crochet from 40 yrs ago! Help
Beginner
Would love to learn to knit and cast on properly. Thanks suzanne
Looking forward to learning to knit
I agree with the ones who requested sock videos. It would be a nice option for people who already know the basics
Great refresher videos tho
I’ve played with knitting but never have completed a project due to frustration with following the pattern and getting the habit of the stitch.
After years crocheting it’s good to have refreshers courses
I can’t wait to get started knitting. Looking forward to these 14 days. Would like to learn to crochet also. Thanks so much.
I learned basic knitting when I was in grade school. I am now 70 years old and have forgotten most of it. I have tried to pick it up again several times. I have trouble reading instructions and understanding some of the terms. I have googled knitting terms at times and not gotten results. I also am interested in knitting socks. I don’t know how to mark rows and change yarn colors. Thank you for any help. I look forward to the class.
I am left-handed. Do you think I’ll be able to learn from this class?
Look forward to learning.
I want to learn more about knitting
I am 53 and I wish to learn how to knit. I already know how to crochet.
Can’t wait!
Thank you!
Will I be able to follow instructions at any time of day
Let’s get started
Would like to be able to read graph patterns
Looking forward to correct techniques and then moving on to other projects.

Recently retired and excited to both “brush up on old techniques” and especially “to learn something new”!!!
easy crochet and knitting dish cloth patterns
Excited!
Ack! My Knit 1, Purl 1, with odd number of stitches ended up looking like a narrower version of the K2 P2 ribbing 🙁 I did it twice, and it came out the same way both times. What could I be doing wrong?
Hey Jen,
Here’s what the experts had to say about your question:
It seems like maybe you knit or purled when you should have purled or knit.

Socks using two circulars
Looking forward to this!
Great instructions, especially for explaining yarn over and eyelets. Thank you
My work will never be as beautiful as my cousin’s, my second cousin’s or most definitely my talented sister who also tats, but I WOULD like to learn how. I can crochet, but my last knitting attempt was in 1976 – and was a bit of a disaster – I never tried again –
I am a beginner. I have never knitted.
I am knitting a vest that is continuous over the shoulder and have to add yarn for one of the front panels. How do I add the yarn for that panel. (I’ve searched but didn’t find a video specifically for this, so perhaps it is contained in another instruction. Can you direct me to it please?
Hello Elizabeth,
Thank you for contacting us.
Are you looking to just join a new ball of yarn? You can simply start knitting with the new ball of yarn. That first stitch might be a little loose, but you can tighten in a bit when you go weave in the end. If it’s something where you need to pick up and knit the front panel, we have a premium video for that here: https://www.theknittingcircle.com/video/picking-up-stitches-along-a-slipped-stitch-heel-018472/
That particular video talks about socks, but the concept will work for any project.
If you have any additional questions, please email or contact Customer Service at 1-833-622-6523.

Ticket 37919 I knit on the round but my tension is all wrong how can I correct it?
Hello Violet!
Our knitting expert would like us to share the following answer:
There are a couple things you can do to try to correct it. You might just simply need to change your needle size when knitting in the round. Some knitters will knit a little different in the round versus flat and that can make your gauge/tension change. You could also try different circular needles (or double-pointed needles) to see if that makes a difference. Sometimes the material of the knitting needle makes a difference!
We have lots of videos on knitting in the round. You might some of them helpful!

Can I use size 10 straight needles for the Cowl?
Hello Cindi,
Here’s what the experts had to say about your question:
Sure! Your cowl may come out a little bit smaller due to using smaller needles. You can always work a few extra rows at the end, if necessary. You’ll need the cowl to be at least 22-23” or longer length in order to comfortably fit around your neck when complete.
Please let us know if you have any further questions

Gracias, me encantaria aprender a tejer sweters topdawn
I can hardly wait for any instructions. I love learning and it’s never too late!
I want to practice knitting with you!
I’m really looking forward to this class. I used to sew and knit a lot when I was in High School in the 70’s, but then I spent most of my time crocheting and doing other crafts like cross stich embroidery. I’m still crocheting, , and I’m learning to quilt, but I’m looking forward to relearning the knitting skills I picked up so easily all those years ago. The only good thing about the pandemic has been having time to do all these crafts, and it’s a good thing to fill my time in retirement! Definitely excited and looking forward to this series!
What should we order to be prepared for the first lesson?
Ticket 38142 i have knitted for ages, but the patterns seem to have changed now you knit in the round, where before it was 2 sides one back and two sleeves and you sewed them together and the button band was done with the sides etc. now they are separate and you have to join them by picking up stitches also, doing this for the sleeves etc. I find it hard picking up stitches not sure where I am supposed to get the stitch from. Also, what with this knit into a stitch 9 or 10 times, how on earth are you supposed to do this?
Another question I have is, can you not give a crochet course, I would love to be able to do this, but I cant. So a close up of how do this would be brilliant.
Hi Linda!
Here is what our experts had to say:

I’m looking forward to this! I love to crochet, but I have wanted to learn how to knot for ages!

Want to learn how to knit socks, candy canes and Christmas stockings.
I need to know how to (yo.k1) 3 times. It is for a baby blanket. I have struggled with this for several days.
Hello Norma,
A (yo, k1) 3 times is worked like this: yo, k1, yo, k1, yo, k1. This would use up three stitches on the needle.
You might also see a stitch where it says “(yo, k1) 3 times into next stitch.” In that case, you would work yo, k1, yo, k1, yo, k1 all into the same stitch. If that’s the case, you might find this video helpful: https://www.theknittingcircle.com/video/fancy-cast-on-knit-yarnover-knit-kyok-018787/
It doesn’t show that exact configuration of working into the same stitch, but it does work knits and yarn overs into the same stitch. You can then apply what you learn to the baby blanket. Happy Knitting!
Please let us know if you have any further questions

Thank you
Have been looking for a project to share with my sister who also does not knit. Will send this invite over to her and then we can both work together although I’m in Florida and she is in California. I know if one of us doesn’t understand something the other one will. And I’m real sure there will be a lot of laughs during this process.
