It could be 100% of a certain fibre, most yarn these days is made from blends, e.g. 80% acrylic and 20% wool. Gauge This describes the average gauge of the yarn when worked on the recommended size needle or hook. For example, this label recommends knitting with a US 9 (5.5 mm) needle. That means if you knit a square of 16 stitches wide and 22 rows long, it should give a 10 cm x 10 cm square block. This is helpful if you are substituting yarn, meaning, if you use different yarn than your pattern calls for. Yardage and Meterage Tells you, in both yards and meters, how much yarn is on the skein. This is extremely important when determining how much yarn to buy for a project. The pattern usually gives the amount of yarn needed. Yards is included as it is the overseas measurements, as yarn is sold internationally. Care Instructions The label includes care instructions were standard laundering care symbols are used. It indicates the way the article must be handled after it was completed. Page 30 of 82

Learners going into Grade 8 have no background in this subject and subsequently have a lot of skills and techniques to attain. These practical lessons were developed to assist the new teacher as well as the new Grade 8 learner in developing the basic skills that is normally neglected due to the emphasis on the theory component. This is the minimum practical lessons required for assessment. After completion of these lessons more lessons can be done for drilling of techniques or as incentives 1.1 The marks for the Practical Work are indicated below. Practical Lesson 4: 20 Practical Lesson 5: 20 Practical Lesson 6: 20 Total 60 Practical Skills Test 2: (used for term 4) 20 BASIC KNITTING ABBREVIATIONS In order not to make the pattern a very bulky document, abbreviations are used instead of writing out the words.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Grade 8 Consumer Studies TG Knitting Option Knit stitch (k) Also referred to as plain or garter stitch, knitting looks the same on both sides abbreviation on patterns is a k, it can be written as a small or capital letter TENSION IN KNITTING In knitting, tension or gauge is simply a description of how tight the knitted stitches are. Why does knitting tension matter? Tension affects the overall appearance of your project, and constant practice is needed to overcome this hurdle. Tension affects the size, thickness, appearance and density of your knitting and is largely determined by three things: a) Knitting needles Big chunky needles will make the stitches large, making your finished garment loose-knit and floppy. Thinner knitting needle will make stitches smaller, making your article to be dense and a lot less flexible. If your knitting is too tight use bigger needles and if it is too loose use smaller needles. b) Holding the yarn Many new knitters pull the yarn much too tight while learning. This makes it much harder to knit the next row as it makes it difficult to slide the stitches up and down the needle and it will also be hard to get the point of the needle into a next stitch if the stitch is too tight. More importantly, it will also affect how the finished project looks: if your knitting is too tight it may curl-up or crumple and it will certainly not be the size you expect. On the other hand, if you don’t hold the yarn tight enough your new stitch will be loose and flopping everywhere. Page 57 of 82

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Grade 8 Consumer Studies TG Knitting Option c) Yarn thickness The thickness of the yarn will determine the size of the needle. If the yarn you use is thicker or thinner than the one the pattern is written for, your tension will be different, and the finished item will not be the size you intended.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Grade 8 Consumer Studies TG Knitting Option Fixing knitting mistakes To undo your knitting, there are two methods: frogging and tinking. Frogging Frogging is what you do when you need to unravel a knitting project. To frog, you remove your knitting needles and start pulling the yarn to rip back to where mistake was made. You then have to insert the needle through all the stitches again. Tinking To tink, you unknit one stitch at a time. In fact, "tink" is just "knit" backward, which is how it gets its name. When tinking you have more control over each stitch, which can be helpful for some types of stitches and patterns. The method takes a lot longer, so it's best for when you only need to go back a short distance to fix a mistake. Weaving in loose ends Weaving in ends is always a necessary step at the end of any project. Even the smallest project has at least two ends: one at the cast on edge and one at the bind off edge. Larger and more complex projects can have many, many ends to weave in. Weaving in ends is essential to give your project a finished look and to keep those ends from getting loose and causing your knitting to unravel. It's not difficult but it can be time-consuming. The goals of weaving the ends in are:  To hide or make the ends of the yarn invisible on the right or front side.  To prevent the article from unravelling.  To make the project look nicer and give it a more professional look.  To make it more comfortably to wear, it would be quite uncomfortable if there is excess yarn lurking about.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Grade 8 Consumer Studies TG Knitting Option Stocking /stockinette stitch Stockinette stitch has a right and a wrong side. The right side is typically the smooth side, called knit side. On this side, the stitches look like small V’s. The bumpy side of stockinette stitch fabric is called purl side. To knit stockinette stitch (abbreviated St st), you alternate a knit row with a purl row. ACTIVITY Learners put on 10 stitches knit 4 rows only purl then 5 rows stockinette, cast off COUNTING ROWS IN KNITTING Counting rows in knitting can be very confusing, especially if you have a lot of rows to count or when it is difficult to identify the stitches. It is necessary to count rows to ensure that a project is completed correctly. By learning some simple strategies for identifying your stitches you will find that counting rows is much easier Identifying stitches in rows It is best to ignore the stitches in your cast on row and the stitches on your needle when counting rows as these do not count, so when you are counting your rows ignore them. Begin counting on the row above the cast on row and finish counting on the row before you get to your knitting needle https://www.wikihow.com/Count-Knitting-Rows Page 65 of 82

Downloaded from hlayiso.com Grade 8 Consumer Studies TG Knitting Option METHOD 1 Look for the V’s in your work. To identify a knit stitch, look for V shapes. Each V is a stitch in a row, so you can easily count rows by counting the V’s from the bottom to the top of your knitting.  For example, if you look at given example there is count 8 V’s going from the bottom to the top https://www.wikihow.com/Count-Knitting-Rows METHOD 2 Count the upside down U shapes. If you are working in garter stitch or if you want to count the purl stitches instead, then you can also count the upside down U shapes in your knitting. Each of these shapes represent a stitch in a row, therefore, count these going from the bottom to the top of your knitting to find out how many rows you have knitted so far.  For example, if you count theses shapes In the given sample there are 4 rows. https://www.wikihow.com/Count-Knitting-Rows Page 66 of 82

It consists of columns of knit stitches alternating with columns of purl stitches. To make a ribbed pattern, you change from knit stitches to purl stitches within a row — instead of alternating knit rows with purl rows (as you do when making horizontal stripes). 1 x 1 Ribbing (always cast on an uneven nr of stitches) Single knit stitches alternate with single purl stitches, creating very narrow columns that stretches quite a lot. To create 1 x 1 ribbing, cast on an even number of stitches. Work all rows: K1, p1; till end of row. Repeat this row for the length of your piece. 2 x 2 Ribbing (always cast on a multiple of 4 stitches) Alternates 2 knit stitches with 2 purl stitches. It creates wider columns, but stretches slightly less than 1 x 1 ribbing To create 2 x 2 ribbing, cast on a multiple of 4 stitches. Work all rows: K2, p2; till end of row. Repeat this row for the length of your piece. Page 69 of 82

It can’t be used successfully if the pieces difference of more than 1 or 2 rows. Step 1 Lay out your pieces next to each other, right sides facing up, bottom edges toward you. You seam from the bottom edge up. If you’ve left a tail of yarn at the cast-on edge, you can use it to get started. STEP 2 Locate the running thread between the first and second stitches on the bottom row of one piece. Gently pull apart the first 2 edge stitches to see the series of little horizontal — running — threads connecting them. STEP 3 Thread the tail of yarn or a fresh piece on a tapestry needle. Make sure your tapestry needle is blunt to avoid piercing the yarn. STEP 4 Join the bottom edges of the pieces, using a figure eight. Work through the two threads on the cast-on row. STEP 5 Bring your needle under the thread; then pick up the running thread between the first and second stitches on the opposing piece. This step begins your mattress stitch pattern. https://www.learn2knit.co.uk/knitting/joining.php STEP 6 Work back and forth from running thread to running thread to running thread, keeping the tension easy but firm. Check the tension by pulling laterally on the seam from time to time. The amount of give should be the same as between 2 stitches.
