Bless. I've been trying to figure out latvian braids all day, and now they make sense.

[@melaniesbuchanan1759]

Great job on this video! It's the very 1st video that appears when searching "latvian braid" and I can see why! I usually rely on only one person when looking up knitting how to's so I'm glad I found you! Again, very well done!!!

[@kailanishaffer5784]

Absolutely perfect tutorial. I’ve ALWAYS wanted to learn this braid but never found a halfway decent tutorial. There’s many but none that exists to me. Now I have this I am keeping it. Thank you so much. ❤️🌸❤️

[@leslieb.1907]

This is a very easy-to-follow video! I’m going to give it a try!

Thank you ;) now I know how to make the Latvian braid ;)

I love your voice! Soothing and calming. You pace is perfect and your explanation is clear. The video provides detail and up close images so I can really see what you are doing. I have made several hats now with this stitch and everyone is in awe about how pretty it looks. Thank you.

[@cathyphegley7414]

Hated those twisted yarns until I got to the second round. Thank you....your instructions are very easy to follow. And your voice and personality are very pleasing.

[@pennykyle9370]

Thank you for the very clean instruction. You have taken the mystery out of it for me.

[@hal7ter]

Thank you. Very nice. Well done. To the point! Yay!

[@susanpeterson9947]

Agree that focusing was a big issue, but I did watch the whole video and appreciate your work. I had no idea how the braid was created, that’s amazing.

[@lesliehanna5688]

First time tryin’ this technique, thank you for such a great tutorial! I’m so grateful for all the accomplished, talented knitters on KZbin. Especially since We were locked down for a year. Please continue with your videos, your work is beautiful and you have a sense of humor! I think we may be confined again, but I had attended a fantastic zoom meeting up with fiber artists. I experienced so much love and support….it was truly amazing.

[@petravieweg5588]

This is a really good explanation and my braid turned out beautifully. Thanks!

[@Mostly_Harmless99]

Great video, very clear instruction. However, I would like you to do a follow up showing how to incorporate this braid with a jogless join. Then it would be perfect!

Thank you. You made it so easy to follow. And what a beautiful hat.

[@miriamfliegel682]

This is tvåband knitting, also called tveband strikk (Norway), or tvebands sticking (Sweden) - beautiful! It just proves that there was a lot of communication between the Nordic and Baltic countries.

[@marshamoore9101]

Very well done. Clear and precise.

Great teaching and result!!

[@MsSasZKnitter]

Very clear direction but the most important part - which is how to finish the braid and make it look like one continuous round is missing. Can you show us how you finished it? I just bought the hat pattern and that's how I found the video. Thank you!

I just start colour work and I have only done one two things so far, but I was twisting the colour strands in the back, I noticed it made a nice strip and was thinking I wonder what that would look like to do that and here it is, lol, I was twisting my floors but I m a loose knitter.
