Knitting may be done by hand or by machine. As we know, all knitted fabrics are made using two basic stitches, knit and purl.
A second potential difficulty is that the knitted piece will slide off the tapered end of the needles when unattended; this is prevented by "point protectors" that cap the tapered ends. Variegated yarns can produce interesting visual effects, such as diagonal stripes; conversely, a variegated yarn may frustrate an otherwise good knitting pattern by producing distasteful color combinations. Crochet hooks and a darning needle are often useful in binding off or in joining two knitted pieces edge-to-edge.
The tips of the outermost, longest one is US size 5 and chrome-plated for speed, whereas the innermost tips are wood and US size 15; the middle red metal tips are US size 9. Although knitting may be done with ribbons, metal wire and more exotic filaments, most yarns are made by spinning fibers. Think about your own schedule and see if there are other times you can find.
