Consistent knitting/purling tension
Please help me. I have been knitting for many years, but as I get older I am finding that my knitting is very irregular, not consistent tension. Can someone please help me? I would be very grateful as this is really a huge problem as I can no longer use the straight stockinette stitch, and try to knit with a textured yarn to hide my uneven stiches. Please reply. Thank you very much. Hertha

What method do you use to knit? Do you wrap your yarn around your hand to provide more even tension? :thinking:
