Quiz: Knitting Terms

bikerministry by bikerministry

Knitting Terms can be very confusing.

Test your knowledge, your multiple choice skills.
See if you're familiar with these terms.
Take my quiz is what I'm saying!

(Do you dare?) Good luck, and have fun.

Take this quiz and see how up to date you are on your knitting terms.

There's a web page to refer to if you have questions.

K TBL
M1 or M1A

I think having a link open on-line like: The Glossary on www.knittinghelp.com

See what your score is, then challenge a friend.

So relaxing.

    50% and feeling lucky! One of the things you could do for an update is separate the quiz questions into 4 different quizzes for those looking for level up points, something I just don't worry about...its a long way to 81!

    I crochet more than knit, but did learn a bit of knitting from my grandmother...remembered all but 1 term. Beautiful bags!

    Years since I knitted, and I think US abbreviations are different from UK - that's my excuse for getting the last two wrong! I do remember K1 P1 PSSO!

    I know - anytime I miss one on a quiz I have this mini-fear-of-failure thing come over me. So silly. You can pick up knitting again. If you know K1 and P1 you can make so many items. Thanks for commenting and liking!! Enjoyed your lenses.

    I crochet more because knitting is harder for me.

    I crochet some, my sister is the pro at crochet. I'm trying to complete the Knitting Guild of America's Master Knitting Course, but it's slow going.

    Thank you. I'm working on an advanced one!!

    Let me know when the advanced quiz is out and I'll see how I do! Should I start 'studying' now? :-)

    Hey -- I haven't knitted in 'years', but I got 100% on the knit terms quiz! Not bad. Course - I crochet all the time, so the terms were actually familiar.... :-). Fun!
  • bikerministry Aug 23, 2011 @ 2:15 pm | delete
    Well, that's great!! I guess I need to come up with an advanced Quiz for you!

    i love to crochet also, but knitting is almost a sickness with me, so crochet has to take a back seat. Thanks for stopping by!

    Oh, by the way - you're my 100th comment which got me a trophy! THANKS!

    Delighted to be your #100 comment. Congrats on your trophy!
    Advanced quiz for me?.... ha, ha!
    I craft left-handed, so found knitting harder than crochet, especially when trying to follow a pattern!
