Hallelujah! Finally, a clear detailed instruction. It makes so much more sense now. Light bulb moment.

[@paulacarter8930]

Wonderfully clear, succinct instructions, excellent camera angle. Thank you immensely for no annoying music and no upturned sentence endings all the time like so many have. I felt I was sitting with a friend showing me calmly and knowledgeably so that I could really learn. Keep up your sweet voice and excellent videos. I have subscribed!

[@johnweiner]

Quite right about the annoying music and "upturned" sentences. It seems to be the new style of English that children have found to torment their elders...I hate it.

[@katiesprague1476]

Oh, bless you! I've been trying to teach myself, after having mostly done crochet for years. I was practically in tears of frustration when I FINALLY came across your tutorial. Suddenly it all made sense! Now, I'm off to see about knitting a sock. Wish me luck. Lol

[@lovecraftscom]

That's fantastic to hear Katie!!! You might like our how to knit socks videos - this is the first one kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3vbq2qHYqqejMk and once you start, you won't stop, it's soooo much fun! Kindest knitting wishes, love Merion and the LoveCrafts team x

[@SacredSoulArt]

Im about to attempt to do the same. I am a crocheter with the tiniest bit of knitting skills. Thought Id try and make some socks! Hope yours worked out great 😊

[@annpoehlman9229]

I’m having a hard time keeping the last stitches from tightening up around the cable. I’m having to use a needles to open up the yarn to get it over the sharp edge between the cable and the needles where it fastens. I’m also having a hard time not having a big gap between the top and bottom needles where it’s suppose to be joining evenly n

[@carmilmerritt8041]

Finally someone teaching this method the easy way

[@lovecraftscom]

Hi Carmil, that's very kind of you, thank you! I hope you have enjoyed using the magic loop after the video! Kindest knitting wishes, Merion and the LoveCrafts team xx

[@mdbenoit]

Great tutorial! I watched at least a half-dozen tutorials and just couldn't get it. Yours was the clearest. Thanks!

[@Fionalyt]

Love this lady! Every video I’ve seen of her teaching is excellent!

[@christinelinn9250]

Brilliant tutorial you made it look so easy the magic way. I'm 66 a knitter for 57of those years . I like the fact your very incouraging will watch out for you. Thank you so much I learned something new.

[@joannacoupland9938]

I cannot tell you how many attempts I have made, watching numerous tutorials for magic loops/ circular needles, getting literally entangled in yarn 😤 starting again , over and over and over!! and then eventually came across your video. Thank you SO much. After a few views I have cracked it. Now I hope my Christmas Elf hat will be complete in a week - or 6! Thank you again. 👏👏

[@lovecraftscom]

Oh Joanna! I am so thrilled to hear that it helped! Magic loop is one of those things that is SO brilliant once you know how but can be a nightmare until you do! It just enables you to knit anything in the round, even tiny things. Well done! I am super proud. Kindest knitting wishes from Merion and the LoveCrafts team xxx

[@mj-ls7qr8xp3n]

I got really frustrated with the cables twirling around. And what about how it pulls and stretches the stitches on each end? I don't want "ladders". I just need it for a neck rubbing for a dog sweater. :/

[@hazelchan9258]

Quick and clear teaching, no waste of time! Very good!

[@gconsoli25052008]

Thank you. Preparing to knit my first ever pair of socks and this was lovely and clear. Also calming and reassuring!

[@jennifertoal7017]

Thank you for this excellent tutorial, so clear and well explained. I’ve watched other tutorials and got confused but I’ve now “ got it” and can’t wait to use magic loop for socks, little sweaters and toys.

[@crazyratlady1738]

This is the easiest magic loop explanation I've seen! I'm a crocheter wanting to knit a pair of socks, not the easiest thing to start off my knitting journey! This tutorial has taken the fear away for me. Thanks so much.

[@lovecraftscom]

Hi Abigail! I am so glad that you have found this easy - and wow, yes, socks are a big thing to start with but I have a tutorial on this channel that takes you all the way through socks from start to finish, using magic loop! I hope you have fun knitting them! Kindest knitting wishes, love from Merion and the LoveCrafts team xx

[@LalaJane-HN]

This is the first explanation of magic loop that I've understood!! Thank you so much! I've been trying to figure this out for ages❤

[@julianicholls598]

Such a clear and simple explanation of how and why this technique is used - thank you - I’m ready for my sleeves now!! And no more stitches sliding off my DPNs

[@lovecraftscom]

Oh Julia, that's brilliant! I am a huge magic loop fan, it really really makes circular knitting much easier than DPNs! (Obviously lots of peope prefer DPNs but I love love love magic loop!) Kindest knitting wishes, love Merion and the LoveCrafts team xx

[@DebbieHQ]

Thank you this! Being a new knitter, I’d envisioned it very differently. Glad to have this video to set me right.

[@lovecraftscom]

Hi DebbieHQ, we're so glad the video helped!! Happy knitting! with love from Merion and the LoveCrafts team xx

[@chilloften]

Thanks, I needed refreshed. Your voice is so calm and I love you for it.

[@tinacowan78]

Fantastic instructions. It’s a bonus that it is UK . I also crochet and i have to remind myself that UK and US use different terminology. I am trying to knit baby socks and this tutorial is the easiest I have found to teach myself knitting in the round with a magic loop . Had I known it was this easy I would have tried it years ago !!!😂 Thank you ❤

[@lovecraftscom]

haha you are so very welcome! Happy making😍❤️

[@jennifercooke8280]

I’ve been knitting since I was six , now 78 and never learned to knit in the round. I now make toys as I’m disabled but hate the seams, so this tutorial is a dream for me. Thank you for your slow , calm explanation. I will be practicing tomorrow when my loop comes.

[@gbdsn]

Thank you!! This was so hard for me to get at first but you've helped me so much! 💖

[@angelafaraguna3741]

Thank you for explaining this so well. Cannot tell you how many videos I watched on this, and still didn’t understand the technique until this one.

[@heyyypeoplesss3352]

thank you so much, this is the only tutorial that has made sense im so excited to start on my hat :)

[@marybutler2653]

Love this tutorial, so clear!

[@suzannefletcher3964]

[@spiritjpg]

Thank you so so much! I learned crochet in quarantine, and moved to knitting flat. I taught myself DPN but loved the idea of using circular needles for making plushies! Yours is the clearest even for a beginner like myself. Thank you!

[@Kittycathead]

you taught YOURSELF dpn??? thats insane fantastic job!!

[@lilydell5656]

Thank you, that was so clear and easy to follow! Magic indeed!

You are so very welcome 🥰

[@jillyates8009]

Thank you, very clear and I got it now!

[@jbrown4444]

I learned to knit from your beginner’s videos. I have always wanted to learn and started with videos a few months ago. I always search for your videos, because they are so easy to follow. I am joining a sock class at my local yarn store next month and need to be able to knit in the round. I’m going to try a hat first with this magic loop technique.

[@lovecraftscom]

oh J, that is so fantastic to hear!! I am sure you will find magic loop helpful for your hat - you could also just knit one in the round with a smaller circular needle, but magic loop will work just fine! It is an absolute joy for knitting socks though! We have three videos on our channel for knitting basic socks in an aran weight yarn - they are so easy to follow and once you start, you just won't stop! This is the first one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3vbq2qHYqqejMk Kindest knitting wishes, from Merion and the LoveCrafts team x

[@marilynbook4211]

Wonderful tutorial. Thank you, I am hoping to knit a toque.

[@lovecraftscom]

Yay- so happy this was helpful! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, we really appreciate it 🥰

[@sineadsification]

Thank you so much for your very easy to follow and helpful video. I'm doing a scarf, packed a bit when read pattern and it says to use Magic loop method. I have never done it. I did look at several videos but yours is for me the best one. Explains it all clearly and felt confident to start. Fingers crossed I can do scarf on it. So used to 2 needles and just got used to DPNs after 40yrs of knitting I feel confident now to embrace new technique.. thank you.

[@lovecraftscom]

My goodness, Sinead I am super proud of you - it's always daunting to try a new technique but you've done it! I was never very good with DPNs, they used to just slide all over the place for me so I was very happy to get into magic loop and I think it's a really easy way to knit in a circle, whatever the size!

Thankyou so much. I bought the musselburgh hat pattern and used other videos to cast on etc but that's all they took it to due to copyright, which was really no help because I didn't understand how to do the next step ie drop one needle etc , let alone then continue the pattern . Thankyou so much ! I will give it yet another go , you really blessed me @

[@AgelessLady]

Been trying to circular knit a baby pullover and going bongers. I can use a #3 or 4 for most of my knitting. I shall get a 40” and practice. My Great Grandson is 9 weeks old so I have time to get a sweater knitted,as I will make a size for a 1-2 year old. Great instructions.

[@lovecraftscom]

It definitely can take some time getting used to it, but we are sure that you will get there! There are also other ways of knitting in the round if you do not like the Magic loop. We are always here if you need any extra advise or help.❤️🥰

[@renebylander1361]

Thanks. Great easy to follow tutorial. I am knitting fingerless gloves

Amen to that ! Well said ♥️

[@drumroady1]

I've been using my plastic looms for knitting in the round. I recently taught myself to knit with straight needles but wondered if it was possible to knit in the round without using double points. Now I know! You saved me from buying double points. 😊 I just started using circular needles so finding your video is a life saver!

[@lovecraftscom]

circular needles are such a joy right? Happy making🧡🥰

[@maryjones1]

Thank you very much! I have started and restarted trying to use my magic loop needles, to no avail. I watched several videos on this, but kept coming back to yours. Yours is stated simply, slow enough to follow, while demonstrated clearly, making each component readily identifiable. I am having a bit of an issue with my cast on stitches tightening, which has made sliding them along the cables a little difficult. I just need to practice, get comfortable with the twisting and frankly annoying cables. I am a crocheter, crocheting Amigurumi, but wanted to knit the clothing, as I prefer the delicate stitches for such items. I have not knitted for probably 35 plus years, but am determined to get the hang of it. 😊

[@lovecraftscom]

oh it can be so hard at the beginning but we are sure you will get the hang of it! If you ever have any questions, you can always reach out as well. We are super happy to help! Happy making 🥰

[@39neilm19]

Hello: this NOTE is coming to you from Toronto Ontario Canada, I have been knitting for 70+ years, recently I have become interested in the magic loop, as fiddling around with those short needles is driving me nuts, you have no idea how many tutorials I have watched here, all of them caused more confusion, too longwinded, their knitting is a different style from mine adding to the confusion ETC. ETC., Your tutorial is amazing, you speak cool and calm, nice and to the point not too long, it now finally makes perfect sense, just showing me that one needle holds knit stitches the other purls now I can understand it.... you are an teaching artist...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME..... WISHING YOU WELL!!!

[@lovecraftscom]

This means so much! Thank you very much for your kind words, it makes us so happy to hear that you found our tutorial helpful and hope you enjoy many more projects with the magic loop! Happy making 🥰

[@estheroneill3369]

Fantastic tutorial very precise and clear. Have watched many and yours was clear and thank you for sharing your skills. I am currently wanting to use it to make Izzy comfort Dolls for Ukaranian children. It will save time having to seam up the flat knittted version and also very good for shaping of the heads all in once piece. Excellent!!!

[@lovecraftscom]

Oh Esther, that is so kind you - thank you - but how wonderful that youare making comfort dolls for Ukrainian children, that is absolutely fabulous. We have had an office in Kyiv for 5 years now, and we have worried and worried about our team mates since this awful war began - thankfully they are safe, our brilliant company has helped them to find safe places to live, but we worry about everyone else there. xxxx thank you for your lovely comment xx Kindest wishes, Merion and the LoveCrafts team x

Thank you for sharing this technique with us. Nice quiet calm speaking. You are an awesome instructor. ❤️🧶 I am knitting DK socks on a US 3 needle. My 10” circular is putting too much stress on my hands and wrists. I thought the 30” cable on 5” tips might alleviate this.

[@lovecraftscom]

Thank you Nortom12! Definitely change to a bigger cable! I always use 32" cables for socks, whatever the tip size - it makes life much easier! Kindest knitting wishes, Merion and the LoveCrafts team x

[@rebeccabrabosilva196]

This is amazing! I have no luck with DPNs which end up a tight snarled mess. Thank you!

[@barbarawood3209]

I once paid for a two- session class to learn this. The teacher cancelled the 2nd class and w never learned how to do this!! You just did a bang-up job in under Five minutes. Boy did I get taken!

[@lovecraftscom]

✨🧡

[@Peryite89]

Thank you very much. I hate DPN, it is so confusing for me to handle 4 to 5 needles and I already gave up out of frustration. Now I will try to knit a hot bottle cover.

[@lovecraftscom]

We absolutely hear you! Magic loop can make it so much easier for sure. So glad this was helpful🥰❤️
