How to Make a SLIP KNOT for Beginners

The first step of most knitting and crochet projects is to make a slip knot. A slip knot can be easily learned and done. This tutorial is for beginners with zero experience. Now let’s get started! 🙂

Materials needed:

  • a ball of yarn you like
  • a crochet hook or knitting needle

1. First, take out a ball of yarn and put the tail of the yarn on top of the side of the yarn that is closer to the yarn ball. By completing this step, we form a nice circle.

2. Take the middle part of the tail yarn and put it beneath the circle we formed before. Now we have a small circle inside the big circle.

3. Hold the two ends of the yarn and pull the left part of the small circle. A slip knot is done.

4. Finally, adjust your slip knot as you like it and put it on your crochet hook or knitting needle.

Now you can begin with your project!

About Me

Hello - I’m Totopus.

I love to crochet and knit. I started Woolly Island because I want to create this magical place where you don’t need to be burdened by anything in real life: just fluffy yarns and cute creatures. I also want a place to document my patterns and share my designs with everyone with the same passion.

I hope Woolly Island can be a magical place for you too as it is for me~
