Hi,

my 18yodd has recently learned to knit. However, she says she only knows how to do the "knit stitch". She looked online to try and find a pattern for something, but said laughingly, "Well, it seems to be written in a foreign language."

Which she now refers to as Knittish.

Does anyone know of a place online that clearly explains all the knitting shorthand?

Thanks,

Laura,

Here's the Craft Yarn Council's site which has great how-to knit directions.

And this is the ultimate site, Yarn Standard's abbreviations for knitting -- all publishers and designers are SUPPOSED to use these for all directions.

If she has any questions, have her email me directly bhwh dot mary at gmail.com
