The video is showing how I graft together the last 6 stitches after knitting a "The Simple Thing Shawl" using the kitcheners stitch. It is a right side row. The thread should be in the middle between the 6 stitches and hanging in the back of the knitting.
The steps are basically:
1. Preparation: Cut the yarn, leave a long end for grafting. If there are still stitch marker in the knitting, they can be removed. Distribute the 6 stitches on two DPNs. I hold both needles in my left hand; one needle in front of the other; the yarn end is coming from the first stitch on the that is held in the back.
2. Preparation of first stitches: Before grafting the stitches togetern, the first stitch of each needle are prepared. Pull the thread through the first stitch on the front needle purl wise; then pull the thread through the first stitch of the back needle knit wise. Both stitches will stay on their needles!
3. Grafting:
3.a. Pull yarn through the first stitch on the front needle knit wise and take it off. Pull thread through next stitch on the front needle purl wise but leave that stitch on the needle.
3.b. Pull yarn through the first stitch on the back needle purl wise and take it off. Pull thread through next stitch on the back needle knit wise but leave that stitch on the needle.
Repeat until all stitches are used up.
4. Wave in end.
