There are two basic stitches in knitting.  One is the Knit Stitch.  The other is the Purl Stitch.  All knitting patterns are based on these stitches, so you'll want to know how to do both of them.  The Knit side of your work is generally called the Front or Right side, whereas the Purl side is generally called the Back or Wrong side.  This is important to remember when you're following a pattern.

You have learned to Cast On, you know how to do the Knit Stitch and the Purl Stitch.  Now you've come to the end of your first project and you don't know what to do next.  You will need to know how to Bind Off.  Binding off, sometimes called Casting off, is how you end your work.  Follow these instructions to learn how to bind off on a Knit Row.  Binding off on a Purl row is different.

This is a pretty obscure Dragon Age 2 glitch that could save your life in some difficult battles. The video maker discovered it in Loose End, a sidequest, and it works in many other open combat environments in the game where there's somewhere to escape to. If you escape far enough (really not far enough) the game thinks the fight has ended and resurrects your whole squad AND brings them to your, all while the baddies are still on you. This video will demonstrate.

The two basic stitches in knitting are the Knit Stitch and the Purl Stitch. Once you know how to do both of them you can put them together to make RIBBING.   RIBBING is usually, but not always, used at the bottom of a garment, as well as at the cuffs and at the neck. It's also a good stitch to use when you want both sides of the fabric to look the same like for a scarf or a blanket.  RIBBING is usually K2 P2 (knit 2 stitches, purl 2 stitches) but it could be K1 K1 (knit 1 stitch, purl 1 stitch)...

This is a beautiful stitch that can be done on any size needle and with any size yarn. When you use a small size needle and thin yarn it will come out looking very delicate.

When you do this you will definitely have a one of a kind piece that is unique to you. This would be a wonderful gift.  If you're doing a baby blanket you could use...

Here is how to join two sets of stitches without leaving a seam.  This method is good for the toes of socks, the top of hoods, baby garments, or anywhere else you don't want a bulky seam.. It's NOT recommended for shoulder seams on heavy sweaters or other places where you need the stability of a bound-off edge to hold the shape of the garment.

There will be many times when you will want both sides of your work to look the same.  One of those times, for instance, might be when you are making a scarf.  Another time you might be making a shawl.  Or it might be a baby blanket, an afghan or a throw.  You'll see, as you're knitting, when you would want to use a "double sided" stitch.  This is one of the best of those stitches and it is called THE SEED STITCH.  It's very easy.  All you need to know is the knit stitch and the purl stitch and...

There are not many stitches that are more beautiful than this LACEY EYELET RIB STITCH.  And, there are few that are easier.  Most knitters are apprehensive about knitting any lace patterns, and truthfully, many are difficult because of so many rows.  This one, however, consists of only 4 rows.  You can use either side of the work and it is a lovely stitch to know.  You can use it for a beautiful scarf or for just about anything for a baby.  I've made many baby sweaters and blankets using this...

There are certain stitches that work well when you want both sides of the work to look pretty much the same.  These stitches are good for scarves, shawls  baby blankets and throws.  One of these stitches is called the MOSS STITCH.  It's a pretty stitch and easy to do.  Of course, you can use the stitch for sweaters or anything you want.
