New to knitting?



Are you a knitting newbie? Need to learn the basics? There are many excellent sites around that explain the basic techniques of knitting far better than Woolly can. These instructional sites include easy-to-follow images and videos. Woolly especially recommends Learn 2 Knit, Craft Expert, Basic Knitting Skills, My Craft Book, Knitting Help.com videos and The Knitting Site videos.

Have fun!

Grab some free knitting patterns

Do you have a favourite site for free knitting patterns? One of my favourites is the Lion Brand pattern finder. It has a huge database of free patterns, many of which can be downloaded as PDF files. It has everything from baby wear to bathroom accessories, with hundreds of sweaters, cardigans, bags, hats, gloves, scarves, toys and soft furnishings in between. I've knitted several garments from this site and thoroughly recommend it.
