Hi everyone! I am new to the group. I have been reading and lurking the past couple of weeks and you all seem to be such a nice group of people. I am glad I found you.
I have been an avid crocheter for years and have always wanted to learn to knit. I can crochet anything and it is just natural to see me with yarn and a hook in my hands.
I have decided it is time to widen my horizons and learn to knit. I have been practicing my purl and knit stitches the last few days and I think I have them down pretty well. What should I do next? Any suggestions? Is it true that these are the only 2 stitches and it is how you combine them together that makes the pattern?
Any ideas on what I should do next would greatly be appreciated. It is a lot slower than crocheting or maybe it's just because I am learning. Does the speed pick up?
Thank you, Kath
