How to Knit

A pair of knitting needles

A ball of yarn

Grab one needle in your non-dominant hand and your yarn in the other

Wrap the yarn around the needle and secure it (2x)

Put your thumb on top of the yarn and make a loop around your finger

Push the needle underneath the loop and pull

Repeat steps 3 and 4 (30x)

Hold the needle with the loops in your non-dominant hand, and hold the other needle in your dominant one

Push all the loops together near the top of the needle

Insert the needle in your dominant hand under the front of the first loop (The loop at the top of the non-dominant needle), and push it through so the dominant needle sits behind the non-dominant needle

Make sure the yarn attached to your yarn ball, lies in the back of your needles

hold the yarn attached to the yarn ball, and wrap it around the dominant needle backwards, so that it sits in between the two needles, two holes should be made

Move the dominant needle through the far hole to the front of the non-dominant needle. Make sure the loops you made don't slip off the needle

Pull the dominant needle up so the loop on the non-dominant needle comes off and moves to the dominant needle, make sure that the loops on the dominant needle do not come off

Repeat steps 3 to 7 until all the loops on the non-dominant needle move onto the dominant needle

Switch the hands your needles are in so that the non-dominant one becomes the dominant and vice versa

Repeat steps 3 to 9 until you are ready to finish your creation

Push the dominant needle into the first loop as we have done before

make a loop with the new yarn and put it in the middle of the two needles and put your non dominant thumb on the yarn to hold it in place

Let go of the long piece of new yarn

Using old yarn, make a loop around the dominant needle as we have done before

Push the dominant needle through the second loop as previously done and pull the non dominant loop until it is off the needle

Cut off old yarn to complete stitch

Stitch two knots

Insert your non-dominant needle into the bottom knot

lift the bottom knot above the needle and top knot and make a hole to push the dominant needle through

make sure that the bottom knot has been lifted above the top knot

Repeat steps 1 to 4 until every knot has been stitched

Cut the ending string (leave a bit of excess string at the end)

Congrats! You have just finished knitting your blanket!
