ok...let the flames come
i know how to knit and crochet...
i swear my ex used to do that shit and show she showed me...that's the only reason i know heheeh...
anyway, to answer your question. you are tightening your loops too tight. you're right it's a lot easier to show you what i mean, but you need to make looser knots through out the scarf or whatever you're making. if you make a row too tight...the next row the transfer will start to tighten and it gradually gets tighter and tighter till you can't get the needle in...i know you're worried about making them too loose, but really experiment with different levels of tension and eventually you will get it right...

I'm generally an honest guy as well but come on ... all I need to say is: "Do I look fat in this dress?"

wrong!!! The smallest, most mundane gestures, we may find a kind of grace. Knitting is a spiritual practice, and traces the arc of her discovery with openness and faith. Do not let strength & tighness ruin your knit. It is not the muscle you use to pull the thread, it's the artistic movement of the hands Knitting is more than a metaphor; it is tangible, hands-on proof of the inner-connectedness of all living things. Time is the key! Take it slow & relaxed & let your hands get into a nice gentle rhythme.

awww! knitting! i learned to knit when i was in the hospital last year!! it's actually funny, because when my grandma found out, she was really happy.. haha.
i'd get frustrated when i'd accidentally ruin the rows or whatnot and they'd come undone. i swear i started over about 3 times.
and now i haven't picked up a knitting needle since i left the hospital. which is too bad because i was so enthusiastic about it before. i wanted to make a little sweater for my pups.
