what size knitting/crochet needles/hook do I use as a beginner?
never kinitted before in my life, somone MIGHT teach me one on one if this is not possible I need advise on what or where I should turn for help.. book or internet for example that will teach me the best and easiest way. Im right handed I know that stands for something. I also want to know what size needles I should start with, metal wooden or what?
Same for crochet, what size hook, metal or what? And aside from a one on one instruction what is the best way for me to learn how to crochet? same as knitting a booklet or advise where I can learn this craft I dont want to take an adult class at a local school I dont have the time or money for that suggestion.
LASTLY....what is easiest knitting or crochet? why do people give me so many different opinions on the 2 crafts? That amazes me. Thanks for your help everyone!!!
I recently taught someone to knit and suggested they get US size 8 needles and used worsted weight (the typical cheap yarn weight) yarn. I wouldn't expect to make anything out of your first swatch, but I find these the easiest sizes to handle. It really doesn't matter as to metal/wood/plastic... it all comes down to personal preference. I prefer metal because the wood ones seem TOO light to me (though some people prefer the wood ones because they are so light). Once you get the technique down, then you can move onto different needles and yarns and make whatever you want.
The best way to learn is to have someone be able to show you (so I suppose that will affect your choice on whether to knit or crochet). If you can't find someone, there is a really good website http://knittinghelp.com that has videos on how to do everything. Definitely not as easy as seeing it in person... but second best. I haven't been able to find a similar resource for crocheting (I'm trying to learn.. the book I got suggests a size G hook I believe).
I personally think that knitting is easier, but that may be because I was taught that by someone first, and am now trying to learn how to crochet just from a book.
Pattern classification: Four out of five stars Level of difficulty: two out of five
I recommend this pattern to these changes: Selecting the size of its size not to go in the back of the pattern, see the finished bust measures, which are printed on the front piece bodice pattern. Select a size that gives you about 1 1 / 2 - 2 1 / 2 inch of the facility (for example, am a size 10, I made this shirt in a size 6).
Then look in the back of the pattern, if your waist is two inches larger than the size you selected, you will need to cut out the pattern in desired size (with 1 1 / 2 - 2 1 / 2 inches of ease) in the bust of the patron, and a larger size (which is listed on the back of model as no more than two inches smaller than the waist), at the midpoint of the pattern.
To cut a shirt out in two different sizes draw cut a line with a little reverse the curve of her bust size in the pattern to your desired size in the waist of the pattern. It is important to bring to your new cut line before cutting the shirt off. I am an experienced seamstress, and still I have trouble making new cut lines only wants them to go without them my employer before taking the scissors to it. Be sure to use a pen and did not bleed through your employer and its material.
I recommend sewing this shirt in a brocade, or a similar material thickness formal aspect. I made this shirt once in the eye E, and twice in a revised version of C. View
