I have chosen the following pattern samples because they are the easiest patterns for a beginner knitter. When I have spent hours working on knitting a sweater, I want to make sure it looks as good after a dozen washes as it did the day I was knitting it.
Variegated yarns can produce interesting visual effects, such as diagonal stripes; conversely, a variegated yarn may frustrate an otherwise good knitting pattern by producing distasteful color combinations. So, why learn how to knit when you can easily buy finished fabrics in the marketplace? Different factors may be more significant than others for different knitting projects, so there is no one "best" yarn.
A key factor in knitting is stitch definition, corresponding to how well complicated stitch patterns can be seen when made from a given yarn. Two, learning how to knit requires self-discipline and steadfastness. I drain the water, squashing the sweater into the bowl to get rid of the water.
Even if you're a pretty proficient knitter, this isn't the time to learn a new technique or work with a skinny fingering-weight yarn that will take forever to knit up. Exercise is great, yet, doing something for your soul, is just as important.
