Knitting Help - Slow Motion Correcting a Dropped Stitch

[@kairod3306]

EXACTLY what you want in a KZbin video. Straight to the point, perfectly covered, no annoying background music, no extra chit chat. I’m subscribing for sure!!

[@lisavantuyle507]

Your tutorials are so very helpful and much appreciated, especially the slow motion ones. I have been trying to teach myself how to knit for just about a year now and have advanced my skill through watching your videos. Thank you so much for doing them.

[@katlynkeane6958]

i have been watching and referencing your videos for years!!!! you have saved me so many hours. thank you so much for helping this panick-y knitter

[@neenee56]

Thank you so much. I know I watched your regular speed video some time back, but I came upon this one after a knitting disaster, lol. I fell asleep while knitting & dropped 5 or 6 stitches, most which laddered down a few rows. I watched this video & got all the stitches fixed in 15 minutes. Easy peasy. Thanks, again. :)

[@julietakeshita3751]

This was the first "dropped stitch" video that made sense to me. Thank you!! The slow mo visual is so helpful! No sound. Slow speed. Perfect help for me when, as a beginner, I often feel stressed when I am trying to make a correction to my knitting and I am overwhelmed.

[@janetjohns194]

Thank you so much....worked and worked on a dropped stitch yesterday, could not get it fixed correctly and gave up! Watched this today, and yes, it is fixed!! Now I will be more confident....but have bookmarked your video for future reference!!

[@annlyall2974]

I used this for the first time this week - it had looked really scary but you made it super-easy and it worked perfectly!! You are the very best knitting instructor ever! So helpful and clear, perfectly explained and demonstrated - I love all your Slow Motion videos and all your regular speed videos - whenever I need assistance I only look at yours now for everything! Thank you SO MUCH!! Ann from UK!

[@angiemcmurray9861]

First time I’ve successfully fixed a dropped stitch! Thank you!❤️

[@shellbrook3383]

You taught me to knit 😍 a few years ago so I already know how to do all these things but there's something soothing about watching these tutorials. You're my knitting guru and I'm so appreciative of all your videos. I never miss an upload!

[@joybells57]

Thank you!! Wonderful😚 Question: is it not necessary to knit regular row between each decrease row to avoid a pointy top?

[@margaretmetcalfe9380]

Always find your instructions so easy to follow.

[@delphafatimamedina4078]

Wow...no words needed...I am totally a visual learner! Slo-mo video is brilliant! I'm going to subscribe. I'm not sure in what order I've seen a couple of your videos. Your hair was short, haha! But yesterday I had to "undo" several rows and when I cast them back on, I must've dropped one and in searching KZbin, I recognized you! Perfect! And thank you!

[@tsbb68]

Thank you so much! I was upset last night when I noticed I'd dropped a stick 5 rows down. Your video showed me how easy it was to fix!

[@Diabloceratops_ttz]

Thank you. I'm mainly a crocheter and have avoided knitting because I was afraid of dropping stitches. This has made sense now that I'm older and I really appreciate this video!

[@vinawaldren6888]

GREAT HELP!! I knew there was a way to correct dropped stitches. You make it look so easy! (which with practise I suppose it is/will be) LOVE your channel! Don't ever go away! This is such a genious craft!

[@sallyannwhileblood7803]

Brilliant tutorial, thank you. I’m knitting angel gowns and noticed the stitch near to completion. So easy to follow. X

[@YarnDragonsCreations]

Your video help this new knitter save a pair of socks that I thought was lost. Thank you

[@sarahmatthews2737]

You just saved my first sock from certain death! I’m at the toe starting decreases No I dropped a stitch. Thank god I took a minute to collect myself before losing it. I checked your playlist and sure enough, the first video I check saved the day! You will never know how helpful you are to us beginners! 💗

[@annrobinson8282]

Thank you so much for doing slow motion videos. Anything you could do in slow mo would be greatly appreciated by those of us who need them. I can find many videos on techniques but they are often much to fast and I have to watch them repeatedly before I can get the technique or skill. Slow mo is wonderful. Thank you again.

[@marygoodson7755]

I would appreciate a slow motion video on correcting garter stitch mistakes. Thank you.

[@cspann831]

Thanks Staci- I learned that trick from my wife and before that I would just ignore dropped stitches. That's how much of a knitter I am. You've taught me a lot too and what I've learned from this video is maybe dropped stitches can be part of a pattern, if the stitch can be fastened somehow to keep it from going further down. It's probably already been tried but that just crossed my mind when I saw your piece. Looked like a neat column of yarnovers. Chuck

[@YourGirlKath]

thank you SO Much !! fixed my project in less than five minutes and I'm a total noob !

[@michellehorner6055]

I have to say I followed until you got to the end and you came in from the back on the saved stitch. I would have done that part wrong! That is why I keep watching your videos.

[@helencaudill1583]

I am such a visual learner ... thank you so much. This helps so much.

[@kristalcuthill1338]

I had no idea it was this easy!

[@chilipeprsandi]

Thank you Staci! Always helps at times to see visually for me. Like the twist too, this really helped.💃🏻

[@gfixler]

I haven't been watching the slow motion series, because I'm fine with the regular speed stuff, but I tuned in out of curiosity, and immediately learned something. It didn't occur to me that you could catch the stitch in a way that didn't require pulling the hook out each time to go in the other side of the stitch. Now I feel a bit silly buying that double-ended stitch fixer recently :)

[@verypinkknits]

Thanks for the comment. :) You'll find that the double-ended fixer is handy when you're correcting a dropped stitch in garter stitch. Here is a link to my video on correcting a dropped garter stitch...I don't have a double-ended crochet hook in this video, but it would save taking the hook out and replacing it every other stitch. kzbin.info/www/bejne/epKaaqaIeLyarZY

[@gfixler]

@@verypinkknits I'm back to being glad I bought it!

[@janmoline]

Thank you!!! I love the slow motion series!

[@annarnold3610]

Thank you so much for your tutorials. I’ve learn so much from you and I have improved my knitting skills.

[@katiegallant9917]

You make it look so easy!! Thanks for another great video.

[@aishahusain2702]

OMG OMG.... thank you sooooo much for this. Although you make it seen so much more easier then it probably is, but this is the very thing that always gave me a mini heart attack! I never knew how to recover. So thanks again! 🥰☺️

[@anneriekotze2357]

you are a great teacher

[@primrose3524]

Great demo, thank you!

[@mandyrawlinson7687]

These are so helpful! Thanks so much for doing these!

[@lynnstratton2890]

Fabulous video! Thanks so much!!!

[@dianepiranian1224]

Ahhhh! Wonderful! Thank you!

[@theastewart6721]

Very nice! How about a slow motion video on how to weave in ends in garter stitch? I would love that!

[@judylee3589]

Perfect, thank you!

[@jeni-jnjcraftco1308]

Staci, this was great as I have so many problems with fixing dropped stitches! Thank you so much! Do you have any videos on when you have to rip back and get the needle back on after a couple of rows? Let’s say you didn’t use a lifeline. I have so many problems when I rip back a couple rows to get the needle back in the stitches without dropping more especially with fingering weight yarn! 😕

[@lynda3553]

What if you had dropped the stitch without realizing it and gone ahead and kept knitting? There wouldn't be enough loose yarn between stitched to pull up through that column to do that without a visible change in stitch size from all the other columns of stitches. Do you have a suggestion for that instance? I'm a fairly new knitter, and have been attempting to knit lace scarves. Oftentimes I may inadvertently drop a stitch off the needle w/o knowing until I notice my stitch count is off. Is there an easy way to go back and fix that without ripping your project back to your previous lifeline? (Heaven knows I've had to do that more often than I'd like to admit) I appreciate all of your videos that you take the time to make. Thank you!

[@brittany45]

I've done that before and I've never had a problem. It's a bit more finicky to do but it blocks out fine for the most part.

[@ruth8268]

Excellent! Thank you!!

[@Womenmatter2009]

Thank you! I was doing well and then dropped 2 stiches. I thought I'd ruined my project.

[@HeatherLMurray]

I would Love to see how to pick up a dropped stitch using a bulky yarn that the stitches are hard to see or make out . I’m using Pipsqueak stripes yarn and I’ve had to restart my project over so many times i have lost count. Pointing out how the stitches work would be helpful also .

[@verypinkknits]

The technique is the same, regardless of the weight of yarn. (I'm actually using bulky yarn in this sample.) If you're having a difficult time seeing the stitches, just get yourself to a place with plenty of light...I actually have a magnifying lamp for situations like those. Not sure what you mean by "how the stitches work". I hope the video demonstrates how the knit stitches come together in a column.

[@HeatherLMurray]

VeryPink Knits with the hairy, bulky yarn I’m using you can’t see the columns or the stitch at all . I was hoping you had a trick when your knitting with difficult yarn .

[@jackieleipert1950]

Loved it.

[@deeannmariee]

Do you have a dropped stitch video of it being several rows below the live stitches? Meaning you’ve missed the dropped stitch and knitted several rows before noticing. Is it corrected this same way and add that stitch to the needle where it should have gone?

[@judywardlaw3640]

Hi Staci, thanks for all the videos, they're enormously helpful. Going off-piste slightly - what is the stitch in the sample in the section below the garter stitch? I love the look of it, but don't have a clue what it is. Once again, thanks for all the great videos.

[@verypinkknits]

It is just twisted knit stitches (knit through the back loop), and purl on the wrong-side.

[@judywardlaw3640]

@@verypinkknits Thanks Staci. I'm off to knit a sample!

[@theseamstress6315]

Thank you , I need to slow motion pick up dropped stitch in garter. Do you have a video for that?

[@smileNbarrett4sure]

???? This might be a dumb question. Is it the same if dropped stitch is on the wrong side? Thank you Stacey

[@angellove1619]

Maybe show how to fix 3 row of garter stitches next to stockinette stitch. It was all I could do to fix this on my sweater I was working on, I never came out perfect and was looser then my other rows, I accidently purled across my knit row and had to rip it out and it was all I could do to fix it.

[@nancysici1286]

Is there any way to fix a dropped single strand when knitting with yarn doubled? Thanks

[@flourchylde]

I have looked for and been unable to find a video for how to knit the point of a V-neck collar. Do you have one?

[@sehryn]

My problem is I have a dropped stitch run down a column of KFB raglan increases to 3 or 4 rows below. Now I’m stuck on how to pick up the stitches so I have all the increases in place

[@darlenefarmer5921]

Thank you!

Awesome video can you make one for Garter stitch please thank you ❤️❤️☺️

Stockinette stitch

[@kendrao9647]

I hope people know they can watch any KZbin video in slow motion (or double speed) if they want to, just change the playback speed on your device. From your phone or tablet just click on the 3 dots in the upper right hand corner of the video, click playback speed, and the options are 0.25x, 0.5x, 0.75x, normal, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x.

[@verypinkknits]

It's not the same, which is why I do these videos. Changing the playback speed changes the quality of the videos. We shoot these videos at a very high rate of frames per second, so that the quality is full HD, and very clear for the visual learners who rely on the slow motion to learn.

[@kendrao9647]

VeryPink Knits I understand you make these special videos, which I think are great! I just wanted to point out to people that they have the ability to go back and watch any other video in slow motion also. You can’t possibly do them all in slow motion! 😊

[@Muffinboxbird]

Watching you intentionally drop that stitch so many rows was painful. 😅

[@1teresakim]

Painful watching those stitches being dropped

[@karenedmonds5983]
