Knitting
I've decided to try knitting. I've bought some wool and a basic sock pattern (I know socks aren't the easiest thing to start with, but they're small and I fancy giving it a try).
I have successfully knitted a jumper and a cardigan in the past, but that was mumblety years ago. Thus, I feel the need to pretty much start again from scratch - I can't even remember what the instructions in a pattern mean (though they'll probably come back relatively easily).
What would people recommend as a web site to show techniques of casting on, basic interpretation of patterns and how to do things like adding/joining stitches.
Also, am I better going with the English knitting that I remember, or trying to learn how to knit Continental?
