How to Knit

Knitting has seen me through many dark times and is a connection to some of the women in my family, most of whom are long gone (one remains and it’s a unique bond we share).

Rather than preach to the converted I’m reaching out to any newcomers to the craft … hopefully this little booklet will introduce you to a lifelong passion, one that won’t leave you in the lurch and will always be there for you when you need it.

‘How To Knit’ is the very first steps in knitting and assumes you know very little or nothing about the basics.  It includes a 1940s dress trimming pattern as an easy first project, and it’s the first in a series so watch out for the next one … in the meantime, get clicking!

Vintage Knitting Tips

I’ve got it online as part of the website, but I’ve had requests for a printed version so you can read it at your leisure, or refer to it while you’re knitting.  Hope it’s useful!
