How do you knit an I- cord?
Using a pair of double pointed needles, cast on 4 stitches. Instead of turning and knitting back the other direction, slide all four stitches to other opposite end of the needle and knit into the first stitch that you cast on. Knit the rest of the stitches on the needle. Slide them down to the opposite end and repeat. You are knitting in the round on a very small scale. Bind off as you would in the round. My aunt makes custom shoelaces by knitting I-Cord with number 10 crochet thread. -smcm
Who used to practice the craft knitting?
The word "knitting" is derived from the word Knot and ultimately from the Old English "cnyttan", to knot. One of the earliest known examples of knitting was found in Egypt from the end of the first Millennium AD and was a pair of socks, cotton with stranded knit color patterns. Originally a "MALE" only occupation, the first knitting trade guild was started in Paris in 1527.

Is there such a thing as a beginners knitting pattern for socks?
Yes and no. Socks aren't really a beginning project, but there are sock patterns suited for a person first learning to knit socks but who already has some experience. At some point a pair of socks is going to require knitting in the round, which is generally considered an intermediate skill. A sock not knit in the round at least for the foot area will have a seam that is likely to cause discomfort. Either increases or decreases will be required, which are advanced beginner skills. To avoid frustration, learn knitting in the round, increases, decreases, and either short rows or the kitchner stitch before tackling socks.
Can you bring knitting needles in hand carry luggage?
It depends on the country that you are flying to and fro. I know that the UK do not allow any sharp equipment whatsoever, so that includes needles. (BAA).The US have increased their security, so it may now depend on the airline, but usuallly, they allow minor things like that.From the TSA site:Traveling with Special ItemsKnitting needles are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage.Items needed to pursue a Needlepoint project are permitted in your carry-on baggage or checked baggage with the exception of circular thread cutters or any cutter with a blade contained inside which cannot go through the checkpoint and must go in your checked baggage.It might not be a bad idea to print out the page from TSA to let the security people know that you are allowed to have knitting needles.Other contributors have said:Per the TSA agent I just spoke with (9/20/09), plastic or bamboo knitting needles less than 31" long are permitted - just declare them to the screener as you pass through security.*Australian flights (to, from and internal) are notoriously strict about this, and you will most likely not be allowed needles of any kind.*Yes, I knit on flights all the time without issues. I tend not to use metal needles though.I would double-check with the airline as I've heard of knitters having their needles taken away. Most airlines list it on their website or you can call customer service. Best not to bring metal needles as I've also been allowed to bring on my bamboo needles in the past.Even if you are allowed to bring your knitting needles with you when your board the plane you may not be able to board with them on the return flight. I have flown internationally on the same airline and the "permitted items" on the return flight were different even though it was the same exact airline and the rules being applied were US Transportation Security Administration rules.In the US, yes. However, anything is always subject to the screener's discretion. In other countries you need to check with the airline or the airport. Many European countries do not allow knitting needles through security.As a general rule, yes. It is recommended, though, that the needles be woodenI have heard of people having no problem with knitting needles when they headed out of the country--but upon attempting to leave the other country, were denied having the knitting needles--even though they were traveling the same airline.YES. I have carried my knitting with me on a plane several times. I did mention that I had knitting needles in my bag (because some of them were metal circular and double pointed and I knew they'd show up on the screen). However, I took stub-nosed children's scissors to snip my ends and to avoid having my embroidery scissors confiscated.
Does it hurt if you take a prick from a prickly pair?
Not usually. Prickly pair cacti usually have very fine hair-like needles that are only irritating. You can put a piece of tape over the area with the needles stuck in the skin. Then remove the tape and it will usually remove the needles. They're more annoying that painful.
Who invented kniting?
Though it is unsure where exactly knitting originated, it is probable that it began in the Middle East, the result of shepherds who invented it as a good way to use the wool from their sheep to produce clothes, since it could be done anywhere, without a big awkward loom like weaving. It is likely that knitting began as the job of men, while women spun the wool. It would then have spread to Europe through trading routes, and from there to the rest of the world eventually. The oldest known samples of knitting were found in Egypt, however, dating between the 11th and 14th centuries. In Europe, it became the art of women, and was soon a well-developed skill that was taught to most ladies. Knitting moved to America with the European colonies.
