How to Knit: English Style

     To begin, cast on as you normally would. For instructions on the basic cast on, and how to knit continental style, go to: At the Back of the Bookshelf: How to Knit: Continental Style


     With your yarn in your right hand, insert your right-hand needle into the front of the first stitch on your left-hand needle.


     Wrap the yarn counterclockwise around your right-hand needle.


     Now pull the stitch off of your left-hand needle.



     Continue knitting across the row. 
     Repeat for several more rows and your work will look like this! This stitch pattern is called the Garter Stitch.
