This video will show you the basics of knitting. Follow along and see how easy it is to actually do! Anyone can learn to knit and it’s a great craft to know if you want to give handmade gifts! A simple large knitted rectangle is essentially an afghan. So this simple stitch can go pretty far and will keep you warm for years to come!

If you do not know how to make a Slip Knot, we have a separate video for that here:

With this video you will learn how to Cast On, knit rows, and Bind off to complete a simple project.

  Glad I found this video. Now I’ve gotta find those knitting needles I bought a couple of years ago to try knitting again. I’ve crocheted for years (decades) but knitting seemed too hard. This video made it look much easier than I feared.

  Thanks!
