[@sharmishtha623]

I’m absolutely new to knitting and I’m so glad I came across your page. Your style and the enthusiasm in your voice itself is very encouraging and I’m definitely going to try this stitch to make a scarf for my brothers

[@jvogue6141]

I can't believe this is beginner! I'm struggling with this haha

[@selamtekeste970]

I made using this design a jumber for myself, and it become fantastic. Thank you for this amazing tutoral.

[@MsJankz]

Thank you so much for these videos 💕 because of this playlist in particular I have been able to do so much practicing! I love how you explain things. I hope you are doing well, whatever you’re currently up to. And if you ever make new videos again, I’ll definitely be there! ❤

Lovely, and looks so simple to knit! Thank you. You’re demonstrations and explanations are so clear.

I love the look of this stitch and have tried several times to knit something using it but the space on the needle becomes so tight that it's a real struggle to complete the stitch each time. I've tried different sized needles but short of literally lifting each loop and placing it on the needle I just have a hard time even starting the stitch. I've gotten it to work by casting on and knitting very, very loosely but then the piece loses its shape and I don't end up with anything looking like the result here. This issue doesn't in the video - what's the secret to maneuvering the needle in such a tight space?

[@danaetscorn9203]

I know this is an old reply list, but I,too, am struggling with it being too tight. Any help from anyone?

[@ailsa4584]

I’m struggling with this design also

[@brianavaldez1967]

I believe it is because her needle point is really long, so the space is thin and has a lot of room to hold multiple stitches that are big because of the size of the needle.

[@acornknits]

This stitch looks fantastic! It almost feels like cheating when stitch patterns look incredibly complex but are actually quite simple to execute 😅 Thanks so much for sharing! You've inspired me to incorporate this stitch into a future project 😊

[@AnimeDayDreamer2560]

[@stephiedrown795]

Thank you for this pattern ❤ Do you think it would make a nice baby blanket ? Love your videos snd your cheeeriness.😊❤

[@sheepandstitch]

This would make a lovely baby blanket! 🤩

[@tIoading]

how about in the round ?

[@MagdalenaTheremin]

Something I like in it though (next to how does it look 🖤) - its regular. I have the most difficulties if I have to 2 raws than 2 others and than repeat 🤣 its need max concentration🤣

[@KrrishP123]

Can’t u do 12

[@annetteolson2428]

I aways try to use circular needles because I would keep losing one needle when I set the work down. Then I would have to look down in the couch cusions to find it, (if I could find it). With a circular needle it was always attached on the other end. Also they would be the same size. If you mix straight needles for different companies they may be slightly different .

[@CuriousMuse2224]

Could you tell me the size of the yarn?

[@sylvyasilvia3673]

🇧🇷❤️🌹Lindo Ponto obrigada 😘

[@annaleroux7707]

Very nice thank you 😊

[@drakat332]

Would you consider showing how you might increase or decrease with this stitch?

[@sheepandstitch]

To be honest I don’t know how to do it 🙈 increasing and decreasing within lace patterns has always scared me

[@drakat332]

@@sheepandstitch that's ok. I can play around with it until I can figure it out :)

[@snowstarsparkle]

@@drakat332 Please update if you find a way!

[@drakat332]

@@snowstarsparkle I've been fiddling around, and I think it will be easiest for shawls or any triangular shape. You start as wide as you want the piece to ve, and then decrease on the purl/odd rows. I'm thinking if you start with 403 stitches, the decrease would be 4 stitches on a purl/odd row (i.e. 403 to 399), then the bauble row, and then from 399 to 355 stitches. If you want to keep it a more gradual decrease, you could decrease a row followed row 2-row 1-row 2-then a decrease row. I'm still playing with it and will need to finally test on a project, but this is so far what I am thinking will work. I'll keep you posted if it works, and if I figure out a good increase (it's likely just the inverse, but I've always had a harder time increasing than decreasing)

[@snowstarsparkle]

@@drakat332 Thank you so much! I think a shawl is perfect for this stitch!
