Are We All Beginner Knitters?

by Hannah Gilly

November 8, 2022

Let's re-enter the world of beginner knitting

That might sound scary, as who wants to be the unknowing you who once picked up a pair of needles and a ball of yarn wondering how on Earth this was ever going to work?

But, let's adjust the perspective...
Knitting mindset is something we've touched on before here on Knit With Hannah. The question is, have you ever come across beginner's mindset?

We all need to be beginners sometimes.

Are we all actually still beginners? Being in the place of a beginner opens up some real curiosity and asks some interesting questions.

Remember being a toddler?  It didn't take long every day before the first, 'But why, Mummy?' echoed around the house!

Let's explore how a slight shift in mindset when you're knitting occasionally can really help build you knitting skills and knitting confidence, just as the toddler used to feel more firm on their feet when the 'why?' was answered.
