Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between knitting and crochet?

Knitting uses two needles and creates fabric with interlocking loops. Crochet uses one hook and makes fabric with chained loops. Knitting is better for drape and fine fabrics; crochet is faster and easier to fix mistakes. Yarn stores often offer beginner classes in both.

What yarn weight should I use for beginners?

Medium weight (worsted weight/size 4) yarn is best for beginners - it's easy to work with, mistakes are visible so you can learn, and it works up quickly. Yarn stores can help you match the right yarn to your pattern.

How do I read a knitting or crochet pattern?

Patterns use abbreviations like K (knit), P (purl), SC (single crochet), and DC (double crochet). Most patterns include an abbreviation key. Start with patterns labeled "beginner" or "easy" that have detailed instructions. Yarn stores often have staff who can help decode patterns.

What is blocking and why do I need it?

Blocking is wetting or steaming your finished project and shaping it to the correct dimensions. It evens out stitches, opens up lace patterns, and makes pieces look professional. Yarn stores sell blocking mats, pins, and can show you proper technique.
