Knitting needles come in many types, sizes and materials. Once you become more familiar with knitting, you may find that you prefer one type over another, but the variations are designed with different patterns and yarns in mind. This guide will explain the features of each, but the best way to decide which needles suit you is to practise and find the ones that feel most comfortable. Learning to knit on bent, dull or rough needles will be a frustrating process, so it’s worth investing in a good pair that feel nice in your hands to get started. To practise knitting, it’s better to work with thick yarn as this will make it easier to spot mistakes. If you’re getting started with yarn that is aran weight or thicker, your…

Patterns will suggest yarn weight and maybe even fibre, but colour is up to you. When choosing a colour for your project, you may need to consider more than just what it will look like. For example, as a beginner, you may find darker colours difficult to work with as you won’t be able to see your work as easily. When you’re using more than one colour, it’s also important to choose colours that complement each other. A good place to start is to look at the colour wheel. USING A COLOUR WHEEL This is used to see how colours work together. Each segment shows the hue (the pure, bright colour), shade (the colour mixed with black), tone (the colour mixed with grey) and tint (the colour mixed with white).…

Stitch symbol charts work in much the same way as a written pattern – each symbol represents a stitch, and you follow it to make the pattern. Some knitters prefer them, as they offer a visual representation of what a pattern should look like and can be easier to memorise. When you come across a charted pattern, the amount of stitches to cast (bind) on will normally be provided, however, if it is not, you can easily work it out from the number of stitches in the pattern ‘repeat’. Cast (bind) on a multiple of this number and any extras for edge stitches outside the repeat and you’re ready to go. In a stitch symbol chart, each square represents a stitch and each horizontal line of squares represents a row.…

NEEDLE ORGANISER When you’ve built up a collection of needles of all different sizes and types, storing them can become tricky. A needle organiser keeps them all in one place and protected against damage. Depending on your preference, you can get either a needle roll or a bag, which is like a long pencil case. PINS Useful for pinning pieces of knitting together when sewing up or pinning out to get measurements, pins with large heads are ideal, as they won’t get lost in your work. ROW COUNTER Used to keep track of how many rows you’ve knitted, this is another helpful tool that will save you from counting the stitches in your work. There are different types of counters available; some sit on the end of your needle and…

When you buy yarn, it will almost always come with a label around it. This label, which is sometimes also called a ball band, tells you everything you need to know about the yarn, from what size needles to use with it to washing and care instructions. If you think your project will need to use more than one ball of yarn, don’t throw this label away, as it will help you ensure you get the exact matching yarn to continue working with. SYMBOLS Most yarn manufacturers will use symbols to indicate the properties of yarn and give further details about it. These will often include care instructions and tension (gauge). It will also include the dye lot. When using more than one ball of yarn in the same colour…

After learning the basic techniques of knitting, you now have the ability to create a large variety of stitches. These can be used to start making your own original designs and adapting other patterns to suit your tastes. You may recognise some of the more common stitches, such as moss (seed) and single rib, but there are a wide variety that will enable you to create any number of attractive items. There are just a few examples showcased here, so take a look through to see which appeal to you most. KNIT AND PURL STITCH PATTERNS There are many stitches that you can create using just these two techniques, and most are simple to work and easy to remember. Although the majority of these will create a pattern that looks…
