Since I’ve shown quite a few people some knitting basics, I thought I should share them on the site as well. Here’s the first of the tutorials I will be sharing. Stay tuned for more!<\/p>\n

. . .<\/p>\n

The first step in any knitting project<\/b> is making a slip knot. It can be done in a few simple steps.  <\/p>\n

Wrap a piece of yarn<\/b> on your left hand clockwise between the index and middle fingers, with your fingers spread about one inch apart. Pick up the back loop with your right hand (Figure A<\/b>, where arrow is pointing) and pull it through the middle of the loop (Figure B)<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Continue pulling the loop up with your right hand and pull down the left side until a small loop forms (Figure C<\/b>), then insert a knitting needle (Figure D<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Keep pulling down, and there you will have made your very first Slip Knot (Figure E)!<\/p>\n
