You are Superman Arne !! You are my Superman 🥰💞

[@ARNECARLOS]

😀😀

[@cathybliss9897]

That is the tidiest placket I’ve ever seen. The unribbed facing is brilliant.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@marthamckeon278]

Just re-watched this for the second or third time. Had a sweater for my grandson, who hates tight necklines, and I had to re-do it. Perfect instructions, thanks for all you do!

[@chrisdonohoo]

So glad I found this steek series, just what I need! These are classic videos, thanks for keeping them up! 🦄

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@virginiaunger4423]

Thanks so much for the STEEK tutorials...I am not a knitter but I cut up Thrifted Sweaters and create garments with them. Great tutorials!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you Virginia, we are glad you find them useful!

[@nancyfmallen]

Whoa! Carlos's t-shirt was a prediction forward to COVID!

[@ARNECARLOS]

True!

[@galinatrishina5664]

Какие вы молодцы!!!🤗👍👍👍💯👌, долго искала video, как закрыть планку, здесь увидела от начала до завершения. Я мастер по пошиву одежды (вижу все детали супер).Мне нравится вязать, с вами узнала много нового🤗👏, буду применять ваш МК. Благодарю!

[@margies5625]

Wonderful to see someone who purls like I do - WYIB.

[@emptyspools]

Here! Here! Love how you hide the raw edges. You both are ingenious. Thanks so much for sharing it.

[@sunidollfun]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. I learned a lot from this.

[@ARNECARLOS]

We are glad you enjoyed it!

[@gillianbc]

You two explain things so well, thank you. I've been knitting for many years and I never knew about not blocking the first slipped stitch. Thank you. For a woman's cardigan, iI find it best to put a button exactly at the widest part of the bust (to prevent gaping) and then place the other buttons evenly relative to that one.

[@nancyjohnson8939]

What a great way to remember what side to put the bottons for a mans sweater think of Napoleon!

[@annetteperks]

It's awesome I love this method so clever thank you .

[@viridiangreen8259]

Brilliant - thank you for sharing this 💛💛💛

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@kml223]

I am learning so much from all your videos, thank you guys for taking all this time to do these for us. That steeking scared me at first but its very cool. I'm enjoying this so much, gives me a little more confidence should I attempt to do this, right now I am practicing making tops and sweaters first and then learning fair isle a bit later, I'm saving all the videos for later. Again you guys are amazing.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you, give steeking a go as it is not a scary as it looks like!

[@isabowie6650]

Lovely your knitting is very neat love watching

[@jess65963]

Love it!!!!

[@denisemiron6902]

Vous êtes vraiment exceptionnels and COOL . I love regarder your vidéos...THANK YOU SO MUCH 🇨🇦

[@kdolguin]

I love this tutorial!!! I've done sweaters with steaks but never with this exact construction. I am ordering the yarn and using this tutorials to make one asap!!!!!

[@wendyhollow1458]

Here! Here! for the gorgeous stunning placket or band as we call them in Australia! I have the body yarn now to find my band yarn. Hugs WAH.

[@Lola.alocas]

Muchas gracias por la explicación 😘

[@junepeasgood1907]

These are wonderful. I had never thought to do what you call a facing (in sewing terms it would be called bias binding - which does the same job but is usually created with a seperate piece of cloth, usually cut on the bias). It's funny how terms from knitting and crochet can interpret for sewing and vice versa. I will always now complete a facing for my seams.

[@danbev8542]

So much skill!! Thank you for this beautiful project!

[@annieboulton5759]

Great teaching from both of you guys. Thanks for your tutorial xxx

[@saozita50]

Amazing work, you two are awesome...love all your videos.

[@allthebest744]

I like how you covered the raw edges.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you!

[@blasebaker]

The colors I love!

[@ARNECARLOS]

Thank you for watching!

[@suzanaigic1957]

Thank you very much.:)

[@blasebaker]

Thank you! I couldn't figure out how to do the neck. Now I know.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Good that you found out!

[@frans3474]

I am from Switzerland (although living in New Zealand!) and I hold my needles and knit exactly the same as you! They call it “the Continental Way” here in NZ and people are always amazed when I knit. I find it rather amusing. 😄🌹

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Fran, yes, here we call it the Norwegian way. It is a good way.

[@patchandler9768]

I love you guys!

[@ginamarie551]

Wow! that's so awesome! wow!!

[@guldenwelter4844]

I just found your tutorials. Love it. I was looking for “kofta» tutorials. Tusen hjertelig takk.❤️

[@sbartdbarcelona44]

Thx you!

[@ARNECARLOS]

You are welcome!

[@tamelaschandel1528]

Oh my, you two are the greatest. I’m making my husband a sweater first the first time and am now considering making it into a cardigan instead. I think if it is to wide I can move the armholes a bit and steek a wider front front off. Do you think that this would work?

[@rosalbazuniga798]

💙💙💙Hermoso

[@ARNECARLOS]

💙❤️😍

[@erniejofo]

I have a question. I just finished a pullover sweater but I find that I don't like it in this style and wish I had made it as a cardigan. Is it possible to steek it now? I already completed the bottom and neck edge ribbing and blocked it using the simple wet soak (30 minutes) method and laid it out to dry naturally. The yarn is a Berrocco super wash and I love the way it feels.

[@ЮлияВасильевна-п8з]

Очень акуратно и красиво пришита планка к кардигану)

[@ARNECARLOS]

💐🌸

[@slinman100]

I want one !

[@vidalindner4326]

Is there a difference between right -hand and left-hand pearl, or knitting (to any of the patterns ).

[@petramaxwell1955]

beautiful! I cut my steek and now ready to rehang the edges onto my knitting machine to knit off the plackets. Do guys machine knit?

[@IngerNordahl]

Your videos have been so helpful! I've been copying an old Norwegian fair aisle sweater and have had to make up the pattern as I go since I don't actually have a written pattern to go by. I have a question about machine sewing the placket onto a fair aisle cardigan. I need the placket to attach between the correct stitches on the right side of the body so that the pattern is the same on both sides. Do you still do this with a machine sew job? Or do you hand sew the placket on with a mattress stitch? It seems like if I do it with a machine, it's a little bit blind because both right sides are hidden from me.

[@patriciacoughlin1654]

Do you prefer any particular brand needles: and for what reason please?

[@susanwinslow9361]

thank you thank you,,,, but i will cut a test swatch first to give me confidence .....

[@mrpeppicat]

I do not purl the way that you do. How are you doing it? Do you have a tutorial?

[@patriciacoughlin1654]

Do you have favorite brand needles that,

[@annesullivan1171]

I have a crochet blouse TOO BIG EVERYWHERE. How can I best resize, it won't unravel.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Anne, we have not done a tutorial on how to resize. Maybe you can consult your local yarn shop?

[@annesullivan1171]

Thankyou. I'm going to be very brave and treat it as fabricalthough it is vintage filet crochet with mulberry silk thread. Wish me luck x

[@GrandmaMarlayne]

The conversion for six centimeters equals approx. 2.36 inches. I need my toes for that one.

[@IrisMG]

Marlayne Madison or just flip your tape measure over and measure 6 cm, in the event it's difficult to measure 2.38 in inches on a tape.

[@Xitchee]

Så flott video! :) Kan dere vær så snill å lage en video som viser hvor man skal plukke opp masker om man strikker knappestolpen horisontalt, og hvordan man plukker opp masker for belegg inni? Dere trenger ikke lage en hel jakke, bare vise på en liten prøvelapp om det er lettere for dere.

[@beajannis9928]

Do you have the same amount of stitches on the beginning and the end of the sleeves? 🤔

[@ARNECARLOS]

Hi Bea, please contact us through our website with all pattern related questions. The pattern for the cardigan is a normal pattern.
