Learning to Knit
We are very grateful to T B Ramsden & Co. for allowing us to use their excellent, and very clear Guide to Knitting.
Knitting is an ancient craft with a long and well-documented history. Queen Elizabeth I is known to have worn knitted stockings and there are many items on display in museums worked in fine yarns with an almost unbelievable intricacy. Nowadays knitting is a more practical craft, geared to todays busier lifestyles. This does not mean however that the craft has lost any of its fascination, and there is tremendous satisfaction to be obtained from the successful completion of a knitted project!
