Do you want to learn how to knit?

I can help you.

One day, my six-year-old son came home and asked me to teach him how to knit. (Yes, boys knit too). I knitted a bit as a child but couldn’t remember how to start! So, I decided that I would learn to knit in order to teach my son.

What I discovered is that …

ANYONE CAN KNIT!

The best part is that it only takes a matter of hours to master the basics

All you need to know is

* Which knitting needles and yarn to use

* How to make a slip knot and cast on

* A couple of simple knitting stitches

* How to finish projects

These few, simple bits of knowledge will let you start making your first knitting masterpieces.

Also, because everyone makes mistakes I have included a special knitting help section to troubleshoot any problems.

Ready? Let's get started!
