Given how much I enjoy knitting socks, encourage others to try knitting socks, and basically never stop talking about knitting socks, I thought you might all appreciate the project notes from my first ever socks.

For a beginner I always recommend you start with something square/rectangle, as the roundabout with socks is an intermediate difficulty. Scarves or baby blankets make lovely gifts, and are very beginner friendly.
Once you are confident in the basics of how to knit, you can kick it up a notch by trying socks.
Honestly most every beginner knitting guide on the internet is great. There’s YouTube guides for whose who want videos and written guides for those who prefer standstill photos and text. And if you really need a physical teacher, try to find a local MakerSpace in your city - yarn wizards are plentiful in those spaces and we get EXCITED at bringing a newbie into our world!
