It requires patience"
Everything that is manual requires patience, application and precision.
It is unthinkable to expect to get optimal results right away.
The approach to a new technique, as knitting may be, wants its time.
It helps a lot to be motivated.
there are those who want to learn to make clothes that they want for themselves, or for a baby.
there are those who need to fill the long afternoon or evening hours in front of the TV
There are particularly creative women who want to make objects for the home or furnishings and decoration.
Many others aim at a small business and having so much time available, they create jobs to sell in flea markets
There are even those who knit all year long, prepare numerous and targeted Christmas presents.
How many reasons .. everyone has his.
I, in my courses, begin to make the stockinette work well which, contrary to what one thinks, is the process that requires absolute precision.
Any irregularity is evident and the finished garment does not look good.
Once this goal is achieved, I move on to real techniques such as increases, decreases, finishes and invisible seams.
Try it and try again, undo and redo until you learn perfect working on samples that allow us to reach the goal quickly
Only then can we begin to design a real garment.
I strongly advise against starting anything just "for proof"
The garment made in a hasty way and with an imperfect result, can only demoralize us and make us feel "incapable".
The patience to start with the "samples" will be rewarded at the time.
Come on, friends, start knitting.
