I for some reason decided to revisit my knitting. Ages ago I tried knitting but to no avail could not handle the two needle thing, but I did practice for a bit and the stitches all wonky, so I gave up and continued with Crochet.
Today I picked up couple of needles, size 4.oomm bamboo and picked a good yarn to practice with and casted on. It is ok, I picked up quickly how to cast on and stitch the knit stitch. To tell you the truth, I am enjoying this new adventure. I am practicing, have made a few rows with the knit stitch, it is a bit wonky, but not too tight or too loose. But I find the bamboo needles have too much resistance and I cannot get a smooth run going.
I only have 4.00mm and 6.5mm in bamboo, that means I will make a trip soon to a craft store and purchase some plastic or steel needles. I like working with 4mm and 5mm and occastionaly larger hooks in crochet, so I will get the same sizes in knitting needles. I cannot wait.
Feels good to start a new craft. Happy for now.
That is all for today, it is time for lunch and I will catch ya soon, make sure you check out the Gliding Video, I will upload more soon.
