I think when people try to learn to knit they choose the wrong pattern and the wrong supplies. Knit One Purl Two happens to be one of the most well known knitting terms, well known by non-knitters and knitters alike.
Hand-knitting has gone into and out of fashion many times in the last two centuries, and at the turn of the 21st century it is enjoying a revival. Double ribbing is the pattern is used for hems and borders for necklines or cuffs of sweaters, socks and mitts. For general garment creation, one of the best known kitting yarns is Sirdar'.
The darning needle is useful when tucking in those loose ends if you prefer instead of the crochet hook. Knitting yarns do not have to be expensive. The key to knitting for gifts is to keep things simple, use quality materials, and, if you want to knit several gifts, consider using one pattern multiple times.
You may also want to consider finding a local knitting group or meeting online others who share your hobby. Keep YOUR knitting on the "Cutting Edge" with FREE patterns.
