If you'd like to join me next week for a Knit With Hannah jargon busting ride, we'll do some jargon busting- you know, figuring out all that secret knitting code.
Sign up to my email list- on the side bar- and starting next Tuesday (August 22nd 2017) I'll be sending links to a free video series, finishing with a video for you to learn all the techniques that a beginner needs to know.

Here's what you need to prepare yourself to join me in busting that jargon.
To allow yourself to see what you're doing clearly and have a comfortable hold, I suggest you use a medium weight yarn, with medium thickness needles:
Left-over Aran/Worsted yarn... 20-25g, or new ball 50g
5mm needles
