Styles of Knitting - very important info if you're learning or relearning!
The Knit Stitch (k) - what it's all named after
The Purl Stitch (p) - the other side of knitting (literally!)
Adding New Yarn - for when you run out, or want to add a new color
Carrying Yarn Up the Edge - more stripes, less ends to weave in!
A Lesson on Gauge - count your stitches & rows
Knitting Ribs - remember that phrase, "knit one, purl two?"
Working with Two Strands Held Together - use two colors for a marled effect
Turning Your Work - like short rows, but much, much easier.
Slip Stitches - for clean edges & fun stitch patterns
Using Markers - to help keep you on track
