I agree with these wonderful grateful viewers. This video tutorial is STUNNING. Wow. What a neat professional looking button band. The extra knit stitch makes the difference as well as the exact gauge. I will try this on a sample until i get the hang of it and correct my mistakes. Impatient to get started but its midnite in France and will have to wait. Thanks a million for this fantastic well explained detailed super closeup video. Thanks for sharing and caring.. 👍👍👍💕

Your teaching style is excellent, Suzanne! Thank you for taking the time to prepare examples of work that has room for improvement, explaining the actual errors made, and then so competently and efficiently showing how to plan ahead for every needed detail that will make our work better than it was! I also love that you do the math and show how important it is to take the time to make measurements and calculations. So many people get turned off to knitting because pattern instructions assume people know the finer details of knitting, when they don't. Maybe pattern writers should just say "Suzanne Bryan has a video for that!"

I am in a place in a sweater project where I needed some of this information to create a good button band and, I suspect, will similarly need your video on creating the button hole band. Had already figured out some of this, but not the extra stitches to square off the end of the band. Duh! I am looking forward to the button band video to complete this part of the project - and likely the next project. ALWAYS find your videos beautifully instructive. And timely. Not sure how you do that, but thank you for your great teaching and sense of timing. BTW, your pup and granddaughter in the background is charming. Take good care.

Lovely tutorial! I learned tunisian crochet before knitting and had to figure out this kind of math for myself. Can I just say - everybody should get a tunisian hook whatever size they most often have to pick up stitches, in their knitting, especially if you use interchangeable circulars and can just swap your hook for needle when you're done. It's so much faster and easier, especially with tiny little stitches, or tight knitting.

It seems to me that the pick up stitches ratio around neck band and back collar for a shawl collar is at a different rate than the vertical button band in most patterns, and different designers gave different instructions. I would be so grateful if you could offer your expertise in that area ( of course if it is within your time allowance ). Many many thanks once again.

This is the best instructional you tube on knitting. I love the precise method using simple arithmetic to create perfect edges! This would make a perfect 6 th grade math lesson to teach the kids a practical use of math. By the way , I’m a retired math teacher; I wish I had thought of this!

I'm a beginner knitter but absolutely love to knit already! Your video and explanation is amazing! I was searching how to pick up stitches on a stockinette stitch to add a rib trim to my sweater but I got so much more out of this video. You are so clear and share great techniques that I've been noticing I need to make the difference in a not-so-tidy project to a clean project. Thanks so much.

Hello. Quilting is my main passion but I recently came back to knitting. A lot of my skills had faded after 20years off! Your videos are so clear that they have really helped me start again. Great instructions and clear video. Thank you so much for helping me and giving your skills so freely. Looking forward to more.

I never realized until watching this video, that picking up stitches could be done with a new piece of yarn! I always thought you had to pick up from what was laying there and it's always been messy. So I have learned yet another liberating piece of information! Thank you, also I like the way you work your ends in much easier and nicer looking.

This is a wonderful tutorial, Suzanne. As usual, your explanations and rationale are easy to understand, and your camera work makes it easy to see exactly what you're doing. Thank you. I now feel as though I have a clear roadmap for future button bands.

This video is incredibly helpful! Thank you for explaining the ratio for picking up; the usual 3:4 doesn’t always work and has always been a source of frustration for me. Watching how you picked up also helped because i always seem to mount them backwards and have to compensate by picking up the back leg - not easy in every situation. So thanks!
