Lovely video, I've recently discovered you. And you explain things very well! Would you be interested in making a video about colourwork, and how to switch colours neatly, and then do coloured patterns? And maybe another knitting lace also?

Great suggestion! I already have a tutorial on intarsia, double knitting and knitting joggless stripes. Just check out my channel library :) Lace is on my list/ in preparation.

Trying a new stitch pattern for a prayer shawl which includes a “knit 1 through back loop” (which the pattern writer abbreviated as “k1tbl”). I thought I was doing it correctly, but it’s been awhile since I looked at a diagram of the stitch. By watching this demo and following along with my needles and yarn I was able to be sure I was, indeed, doing it right.

Hello dear, thank you for your videos, they are very helpful … I’m not really sure which knitting style is mine but usually I hold the yarn on my left index finger and to knit I always use the back loop and to purl I insert the needle from right to left this is how I do it and I get the same result as you for the basic steps, so I’m a little worried if what I’m doing is not good for the advance knitting projects… I watch Turkish, English and Russian knitters to learn new projects and I can see that all of them have their own way to hold the yarn and the needle …

Well, knitting is about consistency. So whatever you do, you have to do it consistently...AND you probably shouldn't mix styles. Other than that, you are good. But don't do a continental purl with a Russian knit or so..that's bound to lead to weirdly looking fabric. Pick one style that you feel suits you best

Hoping you can help me. My grandmother taught me continental and I always knit in the back stitch and purl in the front. I struggle to do it through the front since I have been doing it this way all my life. I am a senior. If I am consistently the opposite, does it matter? Thank you.

Well, it will matter if you don't adjust your purl stitches as well. Kindly look up combination knitting. That's what you are looking for.

@NimbleNeedles - Hi Norman. I have a question about using the KTBL to untwist stitches. I'm working a sweater ITR and noticed 10-11 rows back that I had something strange going on around in these two rows at the BOR. So I put the 12th row down on waste yarn and frogged the 11 rows above it. Unfortunately, I picked up the front legs of the upward pointing Vs instead of the front leg of the downward pointing Vs. In otherwords, I picked up the back leg of every stitch and now I have to untwist the entire round of 200+ stitches. Knowing that the KTBL twists the stitches I found this video and had my suspiction confirmed about using KTBL to fix my problem instead of the one by one transfering of stitches back and forth to untwist. However, will KTBL on the entire round require any adjustment to the next round after KTBL? Thanks Norman Edit: the sweater body is straight stockinette, if that makes any difference in answering my question.

nope. it won't. Unless the stitches were twisted the wrong way (which I doubt).
