Fun Facts About Knitting


Knitting is a method used to create a textile or fabric. You can create many useful items with a pair of needles and some yarn.

There are two main styles of hand-knitting, english and continental. English knitters carry their yarn in their right hand whereas continental knitters carry yarn in their left hand. Knitters make socks, blankets, sweaters, hats, and many other items.

Knitting has many positive health benefits! It has been shown to reduce stress and can improve the dexterity of your hands. Studies have shown that knitting can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and Dementia by preventing memory loss.
