Like most skills, knitting takes time to perfect. You probably won’t get the hang of it on your first try. You probably won’t even get it on your second try. The important thing is to keep trying. Why? You’ve heard the concept of “muscle memory,” right? It’s the idea that the more you repeat a movement, the more it becomes second nature. Because the movement is controlled by your subconscious mind instead of your conscious mind, you don’t need to think through each step of a movement. Without thinking, you can just do it. That’s muscle memory! So, don’t fret if you don’t get the knit stitch right away. Most people don’t. The more you practice, the faster muscle memory will kick in. Before you know it, you’ll be knitting with your eyes closed. You have muscle memory to thank for that! You’ll find tutorials and guides for making a Slipknot, Cast On, Knit Stitch and Cast Off. These techniques form a sturdy foundation for knitting. // MATERIALS // ❐ THE PATTERN SHOP ❏ https://shop.sheepandstitch.com/ ❐ MY FAVOURITE YARN & SUPPLIES ❏ https://sheepandstitch.com/resources/ // WEBSITE // Visit sheepandstitch.com for more knitting tutorials, patterns, and fun! // RELATED VIDEOS // 1.
