You taught me to crochet and now (again) here I am learning from you how to knit beyond my basic understanding of K and P. Thanks for being my online mentor and teacher. You are such a wonderful mentor to all of us crocheter really diving into knitting.

Mikey I’m like you I’m not interested in continental knitting I’m fine with regular knitting because that’s how I learned. I learned knitting from you tube but crocheting I learned when I was 12 i was taught by my aunt . She gave me one of her crochet hooks I’m 61 and still crocheting. When I use her hook I think of her and because of her I’ve made afghans and blankets for family and friends. It’s a great feeling sharing the gift of creativity.

Well you showed us the easy part… but how do you catch the floats???

Herzlichen Dank - super erklärt!
@ojaimark24 күн бұрын
Work the colorwork from the purl side when working in the round. The outer circumference of a circle will always be a bit bigger than the inside circumference. Even if the difference seems small it makes a huge difference. So if the floats are on the big side then as long as you're not making severely short floats, the floats will never interfere with your normal stockinette tension/stretch because as you're knitting the floats are being worked up into a tube that is a slightly bigger circumference than the knitting itself. When you work from the knit side the opposite is true. The floats will always be inherently a slightly smaller circumference tube, so if you don't actively account for that by intentionally stretching your stitches as you go then your floats will always be shrinking everything down to their size. Which is a problem because floats don't stretch like knit stitches do.

I am subscribing from this tutorial alone. I have had this yarn for five years and could not find out how to work it. The tutorials from Red Heart themselves were not great. Those people may be excellent knitters, but they're not my type of teachers. I hope you know what a difference you have made.

Omg! Thank you for being so concise in your explanation. I couldn't find one video that explained it so well.

I want to really thank you for actually showing how to do this technique in such a manner that I am able to both see and follow what you are doing. I have never seen anyone online do this so clear and precise. What a wonderful video you have made! 😊

I’ve just commented on your 3 cast on video but feel I want to say something similar on this video. I’m in my late 70’s and my mum taught me to knit. I knitted for myself then my children and onto my grandchildren. Then through technology and loving people like you I learnt to crochet and absolutely loved it, but now as a little great grandchild is on the way I’ve turned back to knitting. Must admit it was an absolute opportunity to dig through all the lovely tutorials that not only teach..or in my case…re teach…but give both pleasure and joy. Yes, like you, at first, when I was knitting I could almost feel my mum looking over my shoulder to check I’m doing it right, now she’s sitting in the room with me knitting away. I use wooden needles but I can almost hear mums metal needles clicking way. It’s wonderful and that’s just perfect 👌 so I completely understand your sentiment about the method you use. I don’t knit for speed but for the joy it gives me. You do you, because I do me! Thank you for all your videos both crocheting or knitting and I have to say, especially for your shorts. You have such a lovely sense of humour. Bye 💁🏼♀️💕

I’m in my late 70’s and my mum taught me to knit similar at the cable method but only through the front loop, and that’s the way l did it for a number of years….don’t remember how I learnt the cable cast on but that was my go to from then on. I originally knitted for myself then my children and then my grandchildren, then via KZbin and wonderful people like you I switched to crochet and love it, but now a little great grandchild is on the way I’ve turned back to my first love and am thrilled to find you there on KZbin doing knitting. I definitely needed only a little encouragement delve into tutorials because it’s wonderful company to help fill the hours. Your form of teaching is so humorous it’s an absolute pleasure to watch….learning….or relearning….in my case should be fun. It’s all about the pleasure of making and giving, stress is an unwanted visitor in my house. Thank you so much for you company. Bye for now 💁🏼♀️🫶🏻

Oh wow, this looks so easy. I’m going to have to go be it a try. I struggled with trying to knit with 2 -3 colors and gave up. I purchased a couple hat patterns I thought I could do but never tried because it’s intimidating. I knit socks for goodness sake. I should be able to do this. 🤣 you’ve given me confidence to try again!

@mariselytorres80394 ай бұрын
Out of curiosity, why can’t it be done with every other stitch or every stitch to better hide the yarn in the back? Would it make it bulky? Would it show on the other side? I want to color work but am so scared of messing up my work.
@Aedra1012 ай бұрын
Try it out. I know messing up the beautiful pattern is scary, but you can always frog it and redo it. It isn't a waste of time, because you'll have learned something. Don't be afraid to experiment and play around.

@ I’m currently working on a 60 inch blanket and I swear, I keep forgetting to use the darn lifeline. By the time I reached the final stitches and counted to double check, I realized I had messed up on one section all the way at the beginning. It’s so frustrating having to unknit to that section. I swear this blanket has been such a test of my patience and will power. It’s called “Knit and Purls only blanket”. I’m lucky that it’s simple knit and purls in comparison to my prior project that had anything from ssk2tog, k3tog, cables, yo’s, and k2tog. Now that took me over a year only because the amount of mistakes I made had me literally pulling my hair out. I’m so looking forward to starting color work as soon as I’m done with this blanket and will certainly be experimenting on those questions.
