Hello Sally, I have had my LK150 for about 3 weeks now and I am following your videos as I go. In this one I am happy to see that all the things that go wrong with me, you have the same problems. 😊. I am knitting finger-less gloves for the needy kids. I would like to knit a 2x1 rib but I don't want holes. The rib can only be single not turned up as that would make it too thick and probably too tight. After doing a simple e-cast on I knit 10 rows. At that point I am concerned that I will get a row of holes which I don't want. Any way to overcome that situation please? Aside, when I saw Kalamunda I assumed you were in Perth Western Australia, as we lived near there. Kind regards, JennyB.

Hi Jenny - to avoid the holes, you have to pick up a heel stitch from the adjacent needle and put on the empty one - same way as you do an increase. The name Kalamunda is because my dad visited the area during the war, his vessel was in for repairs, and the crew were billeted out to families in the area. He stayed in Kalamunda. Unfortunately, we don't know with whom he stayed, but he always said how much he enjoyed it there.
