Just a warning to maybe prevent some confusion. There are a couple different knitting "languages" American and continental.
My ex took up knitting again. and all the patterns weren't working. Her mother had taught her continental knitting.
My GF loves to knit socks and decided to make me argyle sock to go with my 1870s garb. 4 years later she has ripped it out many times. Don't try it for a first project.
