About Knitting
Historically, knitting has been used to create elastic garments that need to stretch--like socks or hosiery--because the stitches are knitted in such as way that they can move in all directions. You could say that the first knitting teachers were actually tradesmen in 16th century Paris who created various products for paying clients. When the knitting machine was invented, knitting by hand become more a social activity than a necessary skill, and knitting classes started popping up everywhere.

Today there is not only a plethora of knitting classes, but also social knitting groups where people get together to work on projects, discuss ideas and socialize. Many knitting teachers and enthusiasts are also online, and love to write about and share their crafts.

While there are hundreds of different knitting stitches, your basic knitting class will almost always start with the knitting teacher demonstrating a technique called “casting on” (also known as “binding on”), which are the initial stitches that get the piece started. From there you can go on using a simple stitch, such as welting, or fuse several stitches and techniques to get variable consistency—stretchy, stuff, gauzy, dense … there’s a type and texture for everyone! Betterfly is the perfect place to start searching for the best knitting teacher and knitting class today.
