knit how to cast on

Knitting is the art of turning threads int Anyone who has anything to do with knitting will know the importance of knitting yarns.

Double-pointed needles are tapered at both ends, which allows them to be knit from either end. Heathered yarns contain small amounts of fibre of different colours, while tweed yarns may have greater amounts of different coloured fibres. Your knitting pattern whilst looking attractive needs to be suitable to the garment you want to knit.

Knitting may be hand made or machine made. In spinning, the fibers are twisted so that the yarn resists breaking under tension; the twisting may be done in either direction, resulting in an Z-twist or S-twist yarn. To start you can even make some simple combination of stitches.

Double-pointed needles are tapered at both ends, which allows them to be knit from either end. Other factors include allergenicity; speed of drying; resistance to chemicals, moths, and mildew; melting point and flammability; retention of static electricity; and the propensity to become stained and to accept dyes.

Even a beginner can make a simple scarf with novelty yarn in just a few hours, and have it look just fantastic. But, that's the essence of knitting.
