hey idk how new u are to knitting but

try just getting a rlly good grasp in the stitches, like find a project thats simple and repetitive just to have then nailed

if u want to make beanies, or like, any similar clothing type stuff, try to learn double pointed needles soon. they seem rlly hard but if u find a good video (theres a bunch on youtube, look for the old lady ones) u can get the hang of it and honestly thats like,, one id the hardest hurdles lol

also for yarn, personally id recommend finding some thinner condensed yarn rather than the kind that is kinda loose, i think it makes the stitches easier but yeah

for patterns, ravelry is rlly great. start w some rlly easy stuff before going for a beanie or smth. beanies aren’t terrible but its fun to make little soft toys and stuff

im not anything Close to an expert on this, but i do know how to knit and this is what id want to know. yeah have fun w the knitting tho!

im still really new, taught myself how to cast on and do the basic knitting and ive been practicing that by just knitting like a scarf to get the motion down better but i cant keep my rows very even (this is my second “scarf” lmao) some rows are looser and some tighter. but now that you mention it, i dont have the best yarn to knit with, its not very condensed lat all, v v easy to untwist it so thats probably not helping with my lil issue lol

but thank you so so much for all the advice, literally going to screen shot this and save this for future reference ☺️
