Hello! I’m Ally.
I’ve been knitting for about 2 months now.
I have the knitting and purling down.
But, I have [I]one[/I] little issue.
After the cast on and when you start the knit stich how do I [B]not[/B] have an extra long string of yarn between the needles?
I’m pretty sure it’s because I pull it after I take the loop off of the needle but I want to be sure 
Thank you for the help in advance!
Welcome!
That problem is usually a problem with tension, so don’t pull on the yarn.
Also, it’s more likely to happen when you use a backward-loop cast on. The long tail or knitted cast on is better.
Okie doke. Thank you! I was pretty sure that’s what was going on.

I agree - what you’re describing was a problem that I had when I first started knitting too, and once I stopped pulling the yarn when I slipped my working needle into the stitch, the problem ceased as well.
If that doesn’t help, then post pictures of what’s going on and we’ll see if we can help.[/FONT]
Thank you 
It should help aslong as I remember to not pull. It turned into a bit of a habit.
It works!
Yay! Thank yooouuu XD
