I wanted to learn to purl because I knew that once I knew how to purl I could complete pretty much any knitting project. I watched countless YouTube videos trying to grasp how to purl. Taking my needles and casting on a manageable amount of stitches, I knit a few rows. After I completed a few rows, I was ready to tackle the only thing that stood in my way in becoming a proficient knitter. The purl stitch was explained to me as the knit stitch but backwards. I stuck my right needle into the next stitch on my left needle from the back to the front. I proceeded to wrap the yarn around and pull the needle back through and drop the leftover stitch off the left needle. I just created my very first purl stitch. Seemingly, I grasped the concept of the purl stitch much easier than knit stitch. I took my small sample project and knitted one row and purled the other, a stitch I would later come to know as the stockinette stitch. I was so excited that I had learned to purl. Having learned both knitting and purling I felt as if nothing were
