All knitting projects start with a slip knot. This simple little knot becomes your first stitch.
It's super easy to do if you practice a few times.
1
Wrap the yarn around your fingers to make a loop
2
Wrap it all the way around and between your fingers
3
Pull the yarn through the loop you have just made
4
Pull the loop off your fingers so that it's big enough to slip onto your knitting wand
5
Place the loop onto your knitting wand. This will be your first stitch
6
Pull your yarn so that the stitch stays on your knitting wand. You're now ready to cast on...
