What are the best types of wood for beginners to practice carving?

Здравствуйте! If you ask me, Basswood and butternut are the best woods for beginners. Basswood is soft, easy to carve, and perfect for details. Butternut is also soft with a nice color. Both are affordable and great for practicing. So, grab some basswood or butternut and start carving!
