    I just knit my first few rows. I am an avid crocheter but mostly that is because I'm left-handed and when it came to knitting those that wanted to teach me simply ended up getting frustrated and giving up. Crocheting was easy to self-teach and I mastered it myself and now have many beautiful projects. I wanted to learn knitting though, and so after many years I bought myself a pair of needles, grabbed a ball from my stash, and went to google. I found Hannah. For the first time I cast on with and it made sense. I've made three rows and I just have to say how happy I am! Than you!

    I just got my first pair of needles a few days ago and watched numerous beginner videos unable to wrap my head around the process. I was ready to throw my needles out the window, but after finding your video, somehow everything makes sense. I can't thank you enough for how well you explain the process and how much you've helped me. I am so excited about this new hobby! Thank you! Edit: Oh and this is the only way to hold needles that made sense to me. I'm still a little clumsy in general, and I'm holding the string around my middle finger rather than pinky, but this makes so much more sense to me.

    Hi Gabi, for some the one step at a time is much better than a full tutorial. This one gets the first stitch on the needle: kzread.info/dash/bejne/noen27V8hdS8pKg.html It includes 3 methods, so you can have a play and see which one works best. Then have a go with the casting on the rest of the stitches. Have a look at the most recent time I did this - the camera angle is slightly different. I start casting on at 4 mins: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dIWNp5umhavgkpc.html You'll not want to carry on with the whole tutorial in that, but it's a good, clear casting on for you to see close up. Happy knitting! 🧶

    I watched a bunch of different videos and not ganna lie the only reason any of this was comprehensible was because I have a basic understanding of crocheting. BUT this was the most helpful video I found. Especially as a lefty who ends up doing things right handed. I was having a really hard time just making the first actual stich. The way she uses her needles was realy helpful in spotting what I was doing wrong and helped make the casting on much easier.

    Hi Libby, the stitch is the loop of yarn that you've just wrapped around the needle. Pull that loop of yarn back with the needle, the way the needle came, so the new loop of yarn is sitting on the left hand needle as a new stitch. Hope that helps! Happy knitting 🧶

    I’ve watched several ‘beginner’ videos and just couldn’t get the hang of it, then I found your one and I can actually make some stitches - Thank You! I keep having a problem with all my stitches falling off the end of the needle though, they’re so slippery. So I’ve stopped after several attempts as it’s frustrating getting so far and then loosing all my work off the needle, I’m going to order wooden needles to see if they are better than the metal ones i’m trying to use! Thanks again, I hope to make a scarf - I’ve crocheted a few, but knitting looks a lot quicker, once its mastered.

    I'm so glad this was helpful and got you started, ryiah. This video will help you put the stitches back on the needles if they fall off again: kzread.info/dash/bejne/gZ2HlNKsgM7faZc.html The other issue might be that you're knitting a bit loosely, I can help with that here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZiIpcqjeM3Rp9I.html But certainly it's a good instinct to find some wood or bamboo needles instead of metal. You'll have more friction on wood or bamboo so it'll be an easier start for you. You'll get there - keep at it! happy knitting! 😍

    God you make it look so easy. I find it *extremely* difficult and frustrating to recreate what you're doing, but I'm getting there slowly. Each day I'm a tiny bit better. I can do the cast on now. It all falls apart (literally when I try to knit the first row after the cast on. Everything is too tight and I can't get enough space between the two needles. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get a little further 😊

    Yes. One stitch at a time, one day at a time and you’ll see improvement. Do take a look at the too tight and too loose videos in the beginners help playlist. They’ll help you see which parts of the stitches can get you on track even more. Happy knitting 🧶

    Cast offs that look identical to cast ons are pretty much impossible to find as the yarn and stitches are at different stages of the knit. The top of the stitch is a loop and the base of the stitch is two strands coming together. The best I've found is then one I share in this video which looks more similar because the casting on that I tend to use is bulkier from going behind the stitch: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZaR_uK2GZ7mbh5s.html And I have another video with multiple cast off methods, here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pa2uqo9xhafMeMY.html Happy knitting 🧶
