Hi! I just learnt how to knit a couple months ago, when I started to attend a meetup group with my mom. I learned to crochet in school, but I always failed to learn knitting, maybe because I'm left handed?. But something clicked now that I'm an adult and I'm hooked. I'm mostly taking on smaller projects like hats and mittens, these are the first I made to give away to a friend for her little girl (3yo) but they ended up being too small lol.
Used free patterns found online, the mittens were done with crochet. I don't know what else to put in here ๐ So feel free to ask if I'm missing some important info here, please.
Edit: Thank you everyone for your kind words, I look forward to keep sharing my projects in such an encouraging and lovely community ๐
Oh no, I'm your standard English thrower, still. I tried continental for a little and gave up because it was too finicky to successfully manage. Now that I've had a lot more dexterity practice in picking up crochet, I may be more liable to stick with it on another attempt.
You make a very good point, and I think I've been kneecapping myself in that respect because I am a neurotic person whose instinct is to knit/crochet so tightly that a third of the time, you couldn't tell the difference anyway. Which is. Obviously something to mind. But visible holes, though
