How to add colors while knitting in the round?

There are basically three ways to do two (or more) color knitting: 1. horizontal stripes 2. stranded knitting, such as fairisle or jacard 3. intarsia Intarsia in the round, while possible, is so incredibly frustrating you have to be a glutton for punishment to try it. Stranded knitting in the round is pretty much the same, or slightly easier than stranded knitting in the flat. So that leaves stripes in the round. The problem there is that each time you do a color change you get a little zig zag between the two colors that is unsightly. This is called a "jog." There are several techniques for avoiding jogs. There are links below to two of the most popular.


What is circular knit fabric?

Knitting is formed in one or a combination of two basic forms: flat or in the round. Flat knitting is typically done on straight needles and circular knitting is typically done on circular needles or double point needles. When people think of knitting in the round, typically they mean knitting a tube shape, such as a sock or hat. But it is also possible to knit actual circles instead of tubes, such as when one makes circular shawls, table cloths, or doilies. Whether knitting a tube or a flat circle, the technique is the same. The difference is that in tube knitting few if any increases or decreases are made and in knitting a flat circle increases must be made such that as the radius of the circle doubles the number of stitches on the needle also double. Mathematically, it looks like this: c = 2 * pi * r, where c is the circumference and r is the radius. The ratio of the circumference to the radius must always remain 2 * pi or the piece will not remain flat.

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.

What can you make yourself out of french knitting?

You can coil it up to make coasters or loop it round to form the petals of a flower. If you add features, you can make little snakes. :) hope this helps! There is a pattern online which uses these loops to make really cute teddy bears (at Lion Brand). You can also make the letters of the alphabet which can be attached to another project. You can make coasters, hot pads, placemats, rugs. There is also a book called Corking (Kids Can Do It) by Judy Ann Sadler which gives pattern ideas. If you're searching for more information, you might find patterns online by using some of the other names this technique is known by - knitting dolly, knitting tower, Knitting Nancy, Bizzy Lizzy, knitting mushroom, knitting spool, peg knitter, knitting noddy or knitting knobby, spool knit.
