I'm going to make this video in case you're thinking about trying the knit. I don't know how I came upon it, but a couple months ago, and I decided, you know what, I'm going to give it a try. I just wanted to show you in case you're thinking about it, what the very basics are knitting. It's either the knit stitch or the purl stitch. Now there's a lot of other things and different ways to make things, but the core fundamentals of knitting is knitting and purling. Now I'm just a beginner, but if you're thinking about it, I just want to take a minute and I have this set up here, so you all do it here so you can look down, top down shot, and I will show you if you're interested how easy it is. There's actually a truck back in and right next to me. Let's spin this around. You can see. A little close. I'm currently at Nestle Water out here, watch the sky. Watch how fast he backs that in. Sometimes they back up real, real fast. Anyway, I'm at Nestle Water today and they are notorious for one to three hour wake times to get loaded sometimes. So usually I would just bring, well I always have my phone, I would watch Netflix, I would clean the truck, jump back in the bunk, back there, and watch TV, but now I can knit. And now I can show you in case you're wondering about knitting the knit in the purl stitching and see how easy it is. So let me get it up here and we'll get going. All right, so this is scarf that I've been working on my wife. Pulled out to show you. Let me try to. So let's see how. I think this is coming out really nice. Now like I said, there are two stitches to knit in the purl. Now this is already started. There are a couple other things you have to learn at first, but I'm not going to get into that. I gotta get myself situated here. Oh my god, everything is tangled around everything. Okay. So not to get confusing, but what I'm doing right now is in this pattern, I'm knitting too and then I'm purling too. So this way you can see both. And that's how you kind of get this little pattern here. So the string is always to the right. What you do is you stick this right in here and it comes out. And all you do is wrap it around the back and come through there and pull it off. You slide these down a little. So that's one knit. Put it through. Wrap it around and pull it through. That's two. Now I'm doing two knit, two purl for the entire row. Now when you purl, what you have to do is now you gotta bring this around to the front. And then you go through the front. Just like that. Wrap it around. And come out. So that's a purl. Do it again. Through the hole. And through. Now my next two are the two knits. I'm gonna go back to here. So when you knit, it's always in the back like that. Go through. Up and over. In it. Once more you go through. Up and over. And uh oh, missed. Up and over. But there we go. So you got two knits, two purls, two knits. Back around. I'll show you this one more time. Make sure the strings in the front, the string. Make sure the yarn's in the front. There's one. And there's another. And we'll just do this one more time too. So knit. Bring this back here. Your yarn's on the right. Up and over. That's one. And that's two. So this isn't the most comfortable position to knit in, but at least it worked good. And I hope that angle was good. I tried to look down before I started doing it. But it's really that easy. The knit and the purl stitch. It's just pushing it through, wrapping it and putting it through. And once you get those two down, like the very first scarf I did was nothing but the knit stitch. And I was watching YouTube videos. And then I actually found the little yarn shop near where I live. And they have classes. And I just absolutely love it. And then she started teaching me. Like if you knit, purl you do it certain ways. Like you get this rib stitch. It's called and it makes different patterns. Then once you learn things, you can start making hats and gloves, which I just started gloves. Because it's circular. It isn't a flat pattern. And it's really neat. And the best thing is once you learn this, when it's enjoyable, I do it when I watch TV at night with my wife. I'm making this for my wife. And the thing is, now I can make gifts for people for next Christmas. I really want to make hats and scarves and stuff. And it means a lot when someone takes the time to make it for you. And I don't know. I'm starting to ramble. But it's a new hobby and I really enjoy it. And I hope I think this is something that's really going to stick. And this is great. I can bring it with me. Sometimes when I know I'm going to be stuck somewhere, I can do something instead of sitting here watching TV. So I hope this video pieced together. If you're thinking about knitting, it's really just that easy. There are other knitters that have been knitting for years that make really good tutorials. But I just wanted to show you what I'm doing now. And if you never knitted and you saw how easy that was, and you think you might want to give it a try, give it a try. I think you really like it. So I think I'm going to go in the back, get comfortable and start working on the scarf. So hey, if you made this for me, thanks for watching. Consider like subscribing or even sharing this video. That means a lot. If not, that's okay too. I'm just glad you took a minute to watch me knit in the truck. So anyhow, thanks for watching. We'll see you in the next one. Bye-bye. Bye-bye.
