Arne, thank you for showing us how you pick up the stitches. I've been picking up both legs and knitting the stitch them rather than picking up a row of stitches. Your way seems quicker. I've been darning up my holes and maybe your technique will help there, too. Finally your Norwegian knitting method is quicker than flicking so I'm going to try to move over to your way. Love you guys!

I think I've now cracked sock knitting, but I was worried about the loose gusset stitches on one side and the little gaps. Twisting stitches and lifting/knitting that pesky loose stitch on the back are the answers! Thanks so much for both of these great tips, I am now enjoying my sock knitting, at long last!

You've always got such simple and useful tips, thank you. Love seeing you back again! 💙🧦🧦💙 you both look great 👍👍
@beverlyness79543 жыл бұрын
Boy Arne, you have so many great tips! So simple yet so effective. These are the kinds of techniques I would never have known. Basically I'm a self taught knitter. No one in my family knows how to knit. At this point I'm hoping to share this skill with my grandkids (my own kids don't have an interest). I started knitting at about age 6 when a neighbor showed me the basic knit stitch. From there my Mom found a yarn shop who would teach beginners if you bought her yarn. She taught me to knit one pair of slippers. From then on it was me learning for myself. I was single Mom and had to focus my life on my kids and job so I didn't do much knitting until 5 years before I retired from that same job. I'm so glad to have found you both for my journey of rediscovering the joy of knitting. Thank you so much!

I really enjoy the podcast, especially the Norwegian culture and history and in fact, while I can't visit a Stave church in Norway (I live in Minnesota), I am going to visit a full size replica of the Gol Stave church in Bismarck, South Dakota and the Scandinavian Heritage Center as part of my summer vacation in a couple weeks - inspired by your road trip last summer.

WOW! This is fantastic and may get me knitting socks again. I have to admit - I have always picked up and knitted one stitch at a time. I will have to practice Arne's technique of picking up all the stitches in that section, then knitting them off. And I finally understand why I always have a harder time twisting stitches on the "traveling up" side. Thank you!
