Hi! I just learnt how to knit a couple months ago, when I started to attend a meetup group with my mom. I learned to crochet in school, but I always failed to learn knitting, maybe because I'm left handed?. But something clicked now that I'm an adult and I'm hooked. I'm mostly taking on smaller projects like hats and mittens, these are the first I made to give away to a friend for her little girl (3yo) but they ended up being too small lol.

Used free patterns found online, the mittens were done with crochet. I don't know what else to put in here ๐Ÿ˜… So feel free to ask if I'm missing some important info here, please.

Edit: Thank you everyone for your kind words, I look forward to keep sharing my projects in such an encouraging and lovely community ๐Ÿ’•

I recently stumbled across a crochet tutorial that really hyped the stitch markers and I definitely think it would help make things more concrete for me. I will try this method when I pick it up again, maybe in the winter. I mostly wanted to learn because of the granny square projects and how much faster it is then knitting for some things. We will see if I can figure it out, I guess ๐Ÿ˜…

(Edit: lemmy shit the bed and said my comment couldn't be posted so I tried again and apparently it posted both. Whoops)
