Beginner's Subjects for Tuition
Skirts
Sideways, panelled, pleated & ribbed skirts are many ways to knit skirts and all have variations with Fairisle, tuck, slip stitch and weaving added to make interesting effects.
Patterning by Hand Selection
This subject can be very interesting and rewarding, most people think if you have an automatic patterning device such as the punchcard or electronics that hand selection is unnecessary, this of course is quite untrue. The way to work out an automatic pattern is often done by hand selection and many other textures can be developed this way.

The way a garment is finished can make all the difference to it. Learn the classic & the fashion designs to make a simple garment into a stunning one.
