Tips for my basic knitting patterns

1 First you knit your knitting swatch, if you want to knit in a fantasy stitch pattern, knit your swatch in that stitch pattern,
2 then determine your gauge, now you can choose a knitting pattern with the right gauge, this way it will always fit,
3 no need for special yarns or needles size, you decide which yarn you use and which gauge you use, so easy.

Tips for regular inch increments
17.7 = 17.75 = 17 3/4 inches. 18,8 = 18.75 = 18 3/4 inches. 9.9 = 10 inches and so on.
Knowing this will make it easy to just round up or down as they are such small increments.

NOTES:
Machine: Any knitting machine and ribber
Ribber = knitting machine combined with the ribbing attachment
( if you don't have a ribber, knit rib by hand, then transfer your knitting knit to the machine )

First, pick your yarn and do a swatch to get the right gauge

The needle's position on the bed, together with the carriage settings, determines whether the stitch will knit, slip, tuck,
or hold.

COL = carriage on left
COR = carriage on right
HP = holding position. This is usually pos D or E, depending on brand of machine
LH = left hand
MY = main yarn
RC000 = turn the row counter to 0 (zero)
TD = tension dial
WY = waste yarn. Knit several rows with waste yarn, then remove the knitting from the machine.
