Little Known Secret to Jogless Stripes-- Infinite Loop Method

[@fuzztop46]

I have never felt the other 2 methods of jogless knitting looked really nice.. The yarn over method looks really nice, can't wait to try it.

[@sylverscale]

I have seen a yarn over method before - but this one is different and looks much nicer. Makes me want to knit stripes right away. Thanks for sharing!

[@debraf7427]

l am a very, let's say, particular knitter and have avoided stripes in the round but have to say yours is the cleanest colour change l have seen! l can finally make those striped heel less socks!! Thank you for your clear, concise tutorial!

[@78SR]

♥️ Wow! I can’t thank you enough. I’ve wanted to knit a striped hat for years but before I saw your technique I just couldn’t bring myself to live with the drawbacks of all of the other techniques. ...my yarn stash awaits!

[@dustyroads7067]

I just tried this. Beats all other jogless stripe color changes out there. Genius! Thank you.

[@gingermccafferty9572]

Excellent. Never saw your video before when I researched a year ago or so. I found I was able to easily use you method doing TAAT items as well. Very happy! Thank you so very much.

[@donnabush3163]

THANKYOU so much for this. I have knit socks for years and have agonized over the jog lines. I’m so happy.

[@LeZigzag274]

This is golden! Thank you. I’d started knitting striped socks but the other techniques weren’t working so well. Thrilled to find this before I started up the leg where it’s more visible.

[@reggieb2127]

I am so happy to have found your video! I've been trying to work out a way to eliminate that jog by using a yarn over. Thank you for providing the key of adding "2" yarn overs. Can't wait to try it for myself.

[@Netzarim007]

I e used all the other methods, it only just came across this one with your video! So GLAD I found this! Especially since I’m trying to knit single and double rows for colour changes. The other methods don’t work well with small stripes. This technique is going into my knitting arsenal! Thanks so much for this!

[@0721Minerva]

Thank you for your tutorial. I am an advanced beginner and did not know how to knit striped hats in the round. It looks even. I really appreciate your tutorial.

[@countyourblessingsxs]

FANTASTIC video. Clear, concise explanation and a nice close up view of the work. Thank you🍒 Thank you🍒 Thank you🍒

[@vivianpowell1732]

I use a similar method, but less complicated. I knit one round with the new color, up through the next-to-the-last stitch on that round. Next I slip the last stitch from that first round over to the left needle, next to the first stitch of that round. Then I knit those first two stitches together and slip the K2tog stitch back over to the right needle, where it then becomes the last stitch of the first round. Next I start knitting the second round and work one M1 increase a few stitches in, to bring the stitch count back up to the correct number. Then I continue knitting the second round and any subsequent rounds needed with the new color. This method does as good a job as any at minimizing the jog, and it does not leave a hole in the work as some jogless methods do. So many of the jogless fixes I have tried often look worse than the jog itself. I think Arne & Carlos have a point when they recommend doing nothing about jogs.

[@sewingstudio2045]

[@TheMichelebowland]

Works like a charm! Thanks for sharing this one.

[@라라-y5q]

[@susanneerichsen-smith3486]

Awesome technique ! So glad I found your video. Thank you 😊

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Glad it was helpful!

[@dorothybroadman4763]

Fabulous. So much better than the other techniques. Does it have a name? Who created it?

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

I don't know if I was truly the first; knitting's been around for a very long time. However, it was my own independent discovery. I was dissatisfied with the other techniques I saw on the web and I figured out a much better way after much trial and error. Hadn't really thought too much about naming it. I've been calling it the Yarn Over Method, but maybe it should be called the Infinite Loop Method for Jogless Stripes.

[@michellebabin7582]

Very helpful thank you so much

[@knitterlisa693]

I can't wait to try it!!

[@jwadman5083]

Awesome ! Thank you

[@stitcherscottage]

Brilliant! Thank you.

[@ooohlaa13]

wowie thanx i am in the process of knitting leg warmers of colored stash yarns and I do the row below method so eager to try this, looks more refined ... do you have a video on weaving in all the ends when using a LOT of stash yarns?

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Take a look at my video on the loose ends method. it covers using duplicate stitch which is the best way to weave in loose ends.

[@katyerickson6494]

Does this method work when you are making multiple colored stripes? I am knitting the 21 color slouch hat and am rotating numerous colors.

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Yes, it should work. You may prefer this method though: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKSshZmLnMaMraM to avoid carrying multiple colors up the back.

[@helena.3472]

Nice.... very nice indeed.

[@jsio3820]

That was awesome!! Thanks!!

[@dianesmith6936]

Can't wait to try this. Short stripes are such a pain when it comes to making them jogless, when it's not helix knitting. But I have a question - why not add the yarn over before knitting the last stitch of the round? Does the yarn placement (under or over the working yarn) make a difference?

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Under or over sholdn't make a difference, but you definitely need to make the yarn over with the new yarn before the last stitch before starting to knit with the new yarn.

[@dianesmith6936]

@@InfiniteLoopKnitting Thanks so much! I'm knitting baby socks for a craft sale and there are a lot of small stripes. I think this will be a big help.

[@shannonoliver5414]

Very helpful. Thank you so much. 😊

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

You're so welcome!

[@OjaswiKapaliD]

Beginner knitter here! I hope u reply to this. How is your first stitch in the middle of the needle? like when i do my magic loop my last and first stitch are obviously split up into my two needles. What technique of joining in the round is that? I really am not being able to wrap my head around this 😭😭

[@carolynrockafellow417]

Thank you for sharing..awesome

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Thanks for watching!

[@hazeldonner1855]

I like this technique. I’ll put it in practice right away for my new sock on the needles. 🧶

[@pitbull5422]

I loved it

[@excelhexcel5499]

Great👍😍

[@michelleforbes7520]

You don't show what the yarns are doing at the back of the work. Could you demonstrate this working as a thrower or show which colour is over or under when you knit the yarn over together with first stitch. I have tied so many times, and I feel it must have something to do wth the yarn placement. A

[@bikibird]

The yarn placement would be the same as if you were doing a brioche stitch. Perhaps you can find an English (thrower) style demo of that. I believe after you slip the stitch purl-wise, the working yarn would come from the back, up over the top, continue around the needle to the back.

[@ooohlaa13]

can you just do the yarn over before the last stitch and then continue with your instructions or will this mess with the yarn direction? in other words you can skip transferring the last stitch back and forth if you just do a yo with the new yarn? or am I missing something? sorry my mind does not work well with knit engineering, it takes me a while to get it in my nervous system or something like that.

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

I think that could work as long as the new yarn is in back of the current yarn when you knit the last stitch. You want to be careful not to trap the new yarn between stitches.

[@TheCarolynrose]

Excellent

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Thank you so much 😀

[@lkcantwell]

This is awesome. I can’t wait to try this.

[@michelefillion9453]

Thank you for this helpful original demonstration. My question: When knitting a hat with a brim that will be turned up, won't the yarn carrying up the back show? And can that be fixed? I'm now knitting the Lion Brand House Colors hat pattern. Thank you so much!

[@InfiniteLoopKnitting]

Yes, the carries will show on the back. You may interested in the loose ends method, which is completely invisible on both sides. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKSshZmLnMaMraM

[@TheSuzberry]

Best oh YT.

[@introvert211]

I must be doing something wrong, or the knitting gods are screwing with me because I keep trying this method, but still wind up with a jog. I don't get it

[@bikibird]

You may be pulling too tightly on the yarns, causing puckering. Be sure to use a stitch marker and then try it following along with the video, stopping and started it as needed. You can get this!
