How to Knit the M1R & M1L Increase

[@ujust8]

Yours is the best explanation of this I have seen on the internet. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@teresawanderer4182]

Good clear instruction! Appreciate your added hints! Thank you!

[@callababy1815]

This video is so soothing - not sure if it’s your voice or the slow motion knitting with the pretty polish. AND I think I just might understand the left and right leaning increases. Super fabulous explanation! Thank you.

[@HappeeKnits]

Glad that you liked the video. I love nail polish, so it will be rare that you ever see me without it. LOL

[@bettywight9401]

EXACTLY what I needed! Thank you for making my journey into thumb gussets so much easier.

I got the hang of the decreases...thank you for the clear instructions! I would love to make the shawl shown, but not sure about those two stitch markers. I cast on 3 stitches first, and then when and where do I put the markers? A video on that shawl would be so helpful. Thank you!

[@HappeeKnits]

Hi Cat. This video doesnt feature a shawl. I am not sure what you are referring to. Please let me know. Thanks!

[@cjmg321]

I am so surprised that, in showing us and teaching us the difference...that the direction of the BAR isn't emphasized. So clear that the M1R has a RIGHT leaning bar...and the LEFT, obviously, leans left. So mucch easier to work with clues in front of me....than trying to memorize. Have watched many videos...no one points that. out as a HUGE help. Thanks!

[@karenzilverberg4699]

Thanks for the nice demonstration.

[@HappeeKnits]

Hi Karen! Thanks for watching

[@reneelanier3475]

Thank you!

[@38janine]

Thank you so much!!

[@1959GreenGables]

Love how you teach. Can you point me to a video that would show how to pick up a dropped M1 right or left? Thanks.

[@HappeeKnits]

HI Grace. I havent made a video on correcting the stitch, but I did find this on you tube by someone else that may help you. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYjCqYyAhtaGlbs Let me know how you like it.

[@blfspinner]

Thanks

[@yliberal6355]

Why & what are they used for?

[@pallmall5014]

What other purpose do these work for besides increasing?

[@HappeeKnits]

That is pretty much it. I dont know of any other reason to do these stitches.
