What was your first project? I've been dying to learn how to knit, with the eventual goal of making socks, but can't decide where or how to start.
I would consider myself an advanced beginner to intermediate crocheter, but when my mom tried to teach me to cast on for knitting I went cross eyed.
Where's a good place to start? What would you recommend needles-wise?
Edit: Thank you so much everyone for the advice!
I ordered size 7 circular knitting needles (bamboo) to start. I'm going to try a hat so that I can get some practice knitting in the round.
My needles don't get here until Tuesday, and I can't walk at the moment, so I'm practicing casting on with chopsticks!
Thanks again
I actually started my crochet journey with Christmas stockings for my pets lol.
I'm thinking I might try a hat to start out (after I spend some time actually learning the stitches of course!)
Thank you for sharing your first project. Your socks are partially what inspired me to want to make my own! I just can't picture crochet socks being as comfy as knit
haha, I'm glad I'm not the only dork who crocheted Xmas stockings for my pets
