best knitting how to video
I was searching on YouTube the other day trying to find a video to show me how to knit a particular pattern for a project I'm working on. I didn't have any luck finding what I was looking for but I ran across this really great how to video for knitting continental style. If you are interested in learning to knit, this is the video that will get you going! I taught myself to knit using the book, Knitting for Baby. I couldn't understand knitting instructions until I happened upon that book. I also highly recommend it because it gets you started right away with projects that are beautiful and useful using just the knit stitch. This video would've been a great help too!
My latest project that I've finished after the girls legwarmers was this cable knit beanie. Last time I made it for Elle. This time I made it for me, even though I'm not really sure I can pull off the beanie look. This blurry shot is the best picture of it that I have right now and it's dark out already (even though it's not even 5:00 yet) so there won't be a better picture of it today. I wore it to the City of Lights celebration last weekend. I think I need to line it with fleece though because it was really itchy. Bummer!

Well, I for one think the beanie is very cute on you!
I have been helped immensely by the videos on knittinghelp.com. There are videos for almost everything on one site. If you haven't checked it out already you should.
Darcy,
Great hat! I tried to learn to knit a few years ago. Got confused between the tres' chic continental method vs. traditional throwing. I got bummed and went back to crocheting. This has inspired me to try, try again.
Thanks!
