Here is my first attempt at stranded color work.

It could have been a lot better, I think I dropped a stitch somewhere, my tension was wonky, I had to unravel everything at one point because it was fucked up bad, and I could not find my green yarn. I also could have gotten more detail if I made it larger.
But there you go, the first piece of Kiwi Knitters Klub swag.

She might be talking about continental knitting. It's where you hold the yarn in the left hand and scoop up the yarn and knit in one motion. It's typically quicker than European style, which is the most common way of knitting. In America at least.

I was taught European style and told by the German lady that taught me that way is much quicker. I think the preference for older people is which way they learned as a child.

See, that cute shit is the only reason I would learn to crochet. There are so many adorable amigurumis out there. Oh, and in case you don't know, always check PinDIY.com for patterns. It's amazing.

Amigurumi is great for making little gifts for people. There are a lot of patterns out there, so it's not hard to find something for everyone. I learned how to do it from this book. The lady that wrote that book does really good videos to. The last project I finished was an iguana and I used her method for even stripes for the tail. It turned out really good.

Amigurumis are great. I'm thinking I'll learn crotchet after I get my current projects done just to make them. There was a stand selling them at the college art show, and they sold like hot cakes. People love them.
 
I've done French/spool knitting before. I made a really long rainbow-colored cord with the technique after my mother showed me how to do it as a kid, but then abandoned it once I realized that I had no real use for it.

I might take it up again at some point. I've always liked the idea of making an item of clothing from scratch.
