Hello Angela, your videos are great. I really enjoy them. I machine and hand knit. You've given new inspiration. Thank you Anita

@MrShanesbird123 Thank you Anita for your comment. I wish I had more time for the knitting. Currently I am occupied with designing, pattern drafting and the videos for sewing. I will get back to knitting and also machine knitting which has been a passion for very many years.
I'm glad you have been encouraged.

WOW! I love knitting, but this has inspired me to try some new things with different yarns and needles... Just one question - why do you slip a stitch at the beginning of every row?

@isamcg Thank you. I want to include much more knitting on my website - all in good time.
Slip stitching the first stitch gives you a firmer edge. Try it with a test square - knit half way without and the rest slipping the first stitch. You will see quite a difference.
Thank you for the feedback. Keep it coming.

Thank you for your generous comment.
I knitted the beige scarf last year and didn't keep a record of the needle size. Looking at the scarf, it was probably 15mm. The yarn was an inexpensive chunky acrylic. My philosophy is to just choose any yarn you like, try it with various knitting needle sizes until you get the effect you want and start knitting.
Just experiment. Have fun.

Thankyou so much, your videos are so good. I want to knit my own scarf (I've never knitted anything before) so this has been a great help!

@amymaccamie I'm always thrilled when I get someone started. Do you sew? If not, give that a go too.
