THREE HANDY KNITTING TIPS
1. If you forget which row you are on when knitting an item with
a two row pattern which is nearly similar both sides,
remember that the loose end left on the needle when you cast
on will always be the first row.
2. If you cannot buy the same dye lot of wool all at the same time
before you begin your project, then work the borders such as
cuffs or collars in the odd lot, as it is less likely to show if it is a
slightly different shade.
3. Always try to buy the additional materials you require for your
knitted project (such as zippers) at the same time as buying the
obvious. ( wool and knitting needles)Buttons are usually best
left to be chosen after the garment is finished so that you can
get a sense of size and the most appropriate design.
