So You Want To Knit: Knit Stitch

There are only two basic stitches you need to know when it comes to knitting. The Knit stitch and the Purl stitch. Once you have mastered those two stitches there are hundreds of different stitch patterns you can use.

Today we are going to teach you the Knit stitch.

Once you learn the Knit stitch you will also know how to knit the Garter stitch. The Garter stitch is when you use the knit every stitch on every row. There are 2 ways to do the Knit stitch The English and Continental methods. The English Method you use your right hand to hold the yarn. It is also known as American, Throwing and Right handed methods. The Continental Method also known as the pick method, you hold the yarn with the left and and scoop the yarn up with the right needle as you knit.

Everyone has their own way of knitting so I have added a video to show you each method.
