Traditional Knitting

Traditional knitting is a craft that involves creating fabric by interlacing loops of yarn using two or more needles. The process starts by forming a series of connected stitches, typically beginning with a foundation row. With each new row, the knitter manipulates the loops—knitting or purling—to build a flexible, textured material. This technique allows for a variety of patterns, textures, and garment types. Knitting can be both functional and artistic, requiring skill, patience, and an understanding of stitch techniques. It has been a valued method for making clothing and textiles across cultures for centuries.
