Definition of undefined

The word "knitting" has a fascinating history! It originates from the Old English word "cnyttan," meaning "to tie" or "to knot." This reflects the core action of knitting: creating fabric by interlacing loops of yarn. "Cnyttan" itself comes from Proto-Germanic "kniutan," which ultimately traces back to the Proto-Indo-European root "*kneut-," meaning "to tie." This connection shows the ancient, fundamental nature of knotting and weaving, evident even in the earliest forms of knitting.
