When we offer beginning knitting classes, we always point our students to these resources:
Tin Can Knits specializes in modern, seamless knitting patterns. Their mission is to inspire, guide, and support knitters, and they offer excellent knitting patterns and free learning materials. The Simple Collection is a very good starting point for newer knitters.
Extensive yarn and pattern database for knitters and crocheters. Use the filter function to browse by garment style, yarn weight, etc. Crafters can purchase Ravelry patterns at our storefront, and we can print out color copies of purchased patterns.
Patterns with video tutorials that ease knitters into advanced techniques, such as socks, sweaters, cables, and colorwork knitting.
