Hi Ari, just keep at it. Things will come to you and get easier as you continue to practice.
Have you signed up for the needle knitting classes?
you can come to either the daytime or evening classes, or, come to both!

Needle knit. :) I'm using Bernat Blanket yarn. I'm trying it both on my Loops and Threads aluminum size 11's and my Clover Takumi bamboo size 10's. I finally have the movements down for the knit cast-on and the knit stitch--it's just that my tension is all over the place. I'm finding that my cast-on row is curving inward. And some of my stitches have big loops on the back. Keeping things even is a lot harder than I thought it would be.

Thanks,
Ari

>>> Tammy, I completed my first loom knit hat yesterday and made another. Now I’m working on a scarf and matching child’s headband for my cousin’s daughter. They’re almost done, I’m just adding a ribbon decoration to the scarf now. I finished the headband this morning. I don’t know anyone else who has done this, but I got the idea to make a crochet chain out of ribbon and sort of slip stitch it onto the scarf or headband. Then I can get it to be whatever shape I want, like the outline of a heart. It’s pretty fun.
