What Actually Is Knitting Anyway?
But like... what is it? Crazy it took me ten years to get to this point but I figured it was a question worth answering.

It’s so hard I can’t believe you made this video. I can’t even do the first step. I can’t even make the little whole. I hate you because I can’t do it out of my face.
Hey your program is awesome 😮
Your a life saver 😘 thank you for teaching us how to knit
Thank you so much. I have watched other tutorials, and my thing just fell apart. This was so simple, and my piece is out and safe now.
You've made me excited to try Knitting after about 4 or 5 years of only crochet
OMG cactus 🌵 ❤
Thanks again I’m doing a beanie
Struggling with dpns when I get to the decreasing part. You make it look easy, but wow my hands hurt lol.
I decided to learn knitting since I learnt how to crochet last year and honestly it doesn't look good at the moment but i'm sure it'll turn out fine the more i try :)
Best video by far I have seen. You explain slowly and have lots of patience. Thank you RJ!
Thank you for this video! It was straight to the point and made casting so simple and easy for me. Some people really overcomplicate it! So thank you! 🙏

Hi Ryan! I love your videos!!! You’re so talented!🥰
I think you are the best person in knitting
I love 💕 this video
Thank you so much, I’ve seen so many comment talking about how knitting helps with mental health, and is so true. It can be very intimidating as you said, but from all the videos I’ve watched you explain it so clear and easy to understand. I suffered from so much anxiety, and thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and helping others. ❤
Amazing tutorial 🎉
Hi
GrR👹👹uR tEaChInG NonSeNSe
Many thanks ❤
Hi RJ. After seeing your knitting for beginners video yesterday, I decided that it's now or never. I'm 68 years old. My Mom is a huge Kaffe Fasset fan, and her creations are awesome. I've tried knitting a few times over the years but have always become frustrated with my efforts. Meanwhile, Mom is churning out beautiful garments in all varieties of yarns with complicated patterns and stitching. She's 86 now and still enjoying her hobby. She tried teaching me and my sister to knit and crochet when we were young teens and she honestly did her best, but we just didn't have the patience to persevere. Same scenario with my Dad, who's a talented pianist. He tried teaching us to play the piano, but we didn't have the staying power (teenagers!). Anyway, watching your video was a light bulb moment for me. Reason being, that you're a great teacher. You have this way of explaining something in an uncomplicated manner. It's like someone has turned on a light switch in my brain (and cleared the fog). I think that I had a mental block with this knitting story. Well, fast forward to today; I drove to Spotlight which is an arts and crafts supplier here in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia. Their knitting department is a treasure trove of goodies. I picked up 2 x 100g balls of wool and a pair of 9mm needles. After diligently following your videos for all the techniques over the next few days, I'll start with a scarf (it's mid winter here in July). When I get my confidence going, I'll attempt a doggy jersey for my little Chihuahua boy, Tiki. He'll look great in that royal blue colour. Wish me luck! Thanks and regards, Di Redhead / Nairne, South Australia. 😊
I haven't got it Grade3
I've been trying to learn how to knit for a few years now and these are the only instructions that have ever made sense to me in all of my searching. I can crochet, tunisian crochet, handsew, tat, and do lots of other things, but knitting has always been the one thing I've struggled to learn. I'm proud to say that this video is the only one that hasn't made me feel like pulling my hair out because of frustration. Thank you so much for this video and I am going to follow your channel from now on to learn more.
my stitches keep doubling with every row
Does the slip knot work for crocheting as well?
It’s not simple enough for me to understand how to do it.
You don't help
Could any one please tell me the size of the needles coz i want to buy
