Beginner 1 Skein (or less) skill building patterns

Sunny_Singer · 09-07-2007, 12:56 PM

At the first meeting of our knitting group in late June, we had a knitting instructor. She gave us patterns to share. Each one is adapted to build skills - yarn over, decrease/increase, etc.

If you are a beginner, or work with beginners, and would like something smaller to start with, *tired of the same pattern* pm me and I'll share some of these with you. The instructor told us these were her own adaptations.

Bookmarks (dropped yo, seed stitch, lace)
Scarf (dropped yo)
Scarf (wavy *skill - increase/decrease for shaping*)
Teddy bear sweater
Washcloths (checkerboard *skill - k and p in same row*)

That's very nice of you. As long as she doesn't mind you sharing them with others outside of her class that's fine to share them like that.

Hi there,
I just sent you a PM. I also just joined this group (in order to do that!). I've been lurking for a few days. I'm just learning to knit - had my first lesson the other day.
I'd really love to have the patterns you mentioned to help me practice!
Thanks so much!
