Thank you. Very clearly explained

Thank you very much, for this video that makes the German short row finally understandable for me. I'm from The Netherlands, started knitting for a couple of months now and understanding the English written patterns is quit a challenge. But I'm getting there, with help from people like you. so thanks again

This is a technique I figured out and use myself, but I did not know it had a name or anything like that. Sometimes with magic loop I like NOT having to divide the stitches to work the magic loop method around. Especially if I'm working row after row of stockinette, such as working the body of a sweater top-down. What I do is just pull out the cord I will be knitting with as far as I can, which will scrunch up all the stitches on the other end of the cord. Then I just start knitting around. If the stitches kind of space out on the cord as I work, all I have to do is grab the cord to scrunch up the stitches again and continue on. There's less fiddling this way, than if you do the traditional magic loop method of working half the stitches at a time and so on.

Love your videos.. love your honesty and sharing. Thank you. 🙏 🌈🥂🎉

Most excellent!

On my husband's yt account and you popped up. Will definitely be in to visit when we get down to Gore.❤

Could never figure out the magic loop, so resorted to DPNs this looks even better!

Thank you for your tutorial. As I started my first top down sweater I read a lot of references about the magic loop method. I found that method awkward. know that I have found the travelling method I am feeling much more comfortable using circular needles.

You are a very good teacher, Kerryn!

Thank you! This may be the solution to my difficulties knitting the sleeves on my linen Cumulus Tee. Linen yarn is soo slippery, my DPNs kept falling out, as did my flexi flip needles. And forget magic loop, I dislike the technique. This seems so much more straightforward. Thank you again!!

I bought myself some circular needles and just started knitting a hat. That's the way I was using them. I was too lazy to look up what I was supposed to be doing.

Hello! Thanks for your tutorial. I almost get it now. I'm also knitting the Stockholm sweater but I don't really understand what you're supposed to do about the shoulder. You decrease, knit a few stitches, turn, mds, knit a few stitches on the wrong side up to the collar, turn again, decrease (but no mds ??) ? Is that it? I'm sorry if this is not clear, I'm French!

🤯 game changer!

I love knitting in the round, but I hate magic loop. This looks awesome, thank you for sharing

This is genius and exactly what I need for child size sleeves on my current project. I bought a shorter needle that still isn’t quite short enough. I’ll go back to the longer one and do this, thank you!

I recently found a tutorial for retaining the tension of that last knitted stitch on the back needle! Leaving 3 or 4 stitches on the needle as you pull out the recently knitted needle one can continue knitting.... it eliminates any chance of laddering!

This was great especially showing Betty, I’m up to the sleeve divide.

That was great! You're a hoot!!! 😁 Thanks for the vid! Much love! 🥰

Hi - so would this method work with sleeves on a child's jumper with very small circumference using short tip needles and long cable? So no decreases. Thanks

thank you so much! ive been trying to do a sleeve with dp needles and it was so difficult

Thanks so much for sharing. I will be trying this method.

Very cool 😎

Love this! I hate DP’s, I found the Magic loop cumbersome! This looks so easy! I’m sure it will work with continental as well!

"Sometimes you just want to put the ... thing on!" You've met my daughter then...🤣

I have always called this “un-knitting”...and I’ve done a lot of it during my knitting projects😐🧶

so... it all comes down to fancy terms for using circular needles in whatever way works easiest for each knitter.

Genius! Love knitting in the round.

I think I've accidentally done this 😅 trying to do magic loop

What I've been doing is moving the loop when it's reached the end of the left needle. So with a bunch of stitches still left, I pinch the cable near the end of the right hand needle and pull it through. This way, the stitches travel to the left needle's side and you dont get that 'first stitch' where you have to mind the tension. I'm not sure of it's an actual technique with it's own name, but it's been working great for me! 😊

I have used this technique for years but never knew it had a name!!

Traveling loop looks a lot easier than magic loop. I'll have to try it.

Finally I can knit with the travelling loop. Just couldn’t get my head round it watching other videos, don’t get me started on the magic loop 😊.. I watched your video twice… et voila it worked. Thank you so much, brilliantly explained!

thank you for changing my knitting game - i feel unstoppable now learning this, changed my life tbh

I’ve watched people using Magic Loop and it always looks such a fiddle. This makes much more sense, and very well explained. I’m definitely going to give his a try. 👍

Clo merci j avais réussi le traveling loup sans le savoir Mais ma technique grâce à vous est meilleure Mille merci je réponds en français je ne parle pas l anglais Merci merci tanke you ...hum un bon début

Hi I live in the UK. I also use this method of knitting and I knit combination style which after I got used to it, I now prefer it. I learned this also from utube.

Thank you for sharing this. It's so helpful!

omg I like this so much thanks for sharing I always hated when ny work would have a little nub on the bottom this helps so much

Brilliant Kerryn!! I should have watched this ages ago. I might not HATE sleeves quite so much 😅

I finally understand how to do it now ! You made my knitting life so much easier thank you

I’m so excited now because yours it the first tutorial of this method I actually understand 😭

Thank you very much for this video. This really helped. I was trying to figure out how to use a cable that was too long for my work. As a beginner I didn’t know what to do other than buying the right size for my project. It was the only size I had. This method will help me finish a project while waiting to buy circular needles with a shorter cable. Thanks again.

Wonderfully explained!! Thank you so much, and definitely prefer this to horrible magic loop! 😊

This is such a great explanation. I've gotten a bit confused watching others do it but this by far is the way. I don't like magic loops, my tension gets all wonky. Thank you for sharing this :)

Thank you so much for making this video 🙏 I watched it through three times before trying the technique and was able to make it work right from my first go as your explanation is so clear. This is a brilliant new-to-me way of working smaller circumference projects in the round when I don’t have the energy for all the rearranging that goes along with magic loop, and has the added benefit of enabling me to utilise longer needle tips that don’t make my hands ache ♥️

I love it your mini lesson that make me clear and understnd. I can't wait to practice it.

Excellent!!!!

So far, the clearest explanation and tips I have seen and hear. I would prefer not to use the magic loop (extremely confusing) and with DPs I get twisted around or the stitches slide off the bottom end! 😩
