I can't seem to get the hang of knitting. I'm used a few books from the library. Do you have an on-line tutorial that will help? Say start with a dishcloth?

I use videos from Youtube. I like the videos by theknitwitch. Just type in what you're looking for, knit stitch or pearl stitch, for example. Find one you like and you can watch it over and over and over and over and over till you get it, lol!

I agree with Farmdream! I thought I was a lost cause until I watched You tube. Finally..I got it! Good luck!

I found several yesterday and guess what? I can knit! Woo hoo!

I have a picture on today's blog post (of the start of a scarf).

You go girl! Those videos are a life saver when you run up against one of those pesky knitting problems at 1AM! Good luck, just keep at it. Your knitting will get more even and "neater" as you practice. Promise!
