7 Tips for New Knitters

This week is Learn to Knit Week; every day I’ll be sharing tips, ideas or stories of learning to knit.
If you’d like to share your story, leave it in the comments!

In all this making-a-kit-for-new-knitters, I’ve collected a list of tips for new knitters. Instead of keeping it just for the people who buy the kit, I thought I’d offer it for free!

You can download the PDF, 7 Tips for New Knitters, by clicking here. If you like it, pass it along to the next new knitter you meet!
(Not a knitter? Think you might be? Sign up for the Maybe-Knitter e-course (free!) to learn a bit more about this knitting thing.)

    I would just at that a bright colored yarn (ie not black) is better for beginners since it's easier to see your stitches. So royal blue instead of navy, etc.

    That's an excellent point – I totally agree!
