Using a Knitting Thimble - Knitting Technique

[@sistazknitmore]

Thank you for an awesome tutorial. I just became a new subscriber.

Never heard of it. I thought it looks like a tension regulation tool for crochet. Thanks, I learned something new. I am a beginner in learning to crochet. Maybe one day I could learn to knit. Blessings.

My first thought is "Does it pull on the back of the work?" so I'll go and watch your video about stranding colourwork!

[@gailfancher3778]

did you get a cramp in your index finger the first times you used it?

[@toforgetisagem8797]

It looks like bondage for the fingers.

so a person can only use a knitting thimble on your left hand. If not a continental knitter, the thimble is useless?

[@KotoriOnWheels]

I imagine if you are a flicker rather than a thrower you could possibly use this on your right hand

Very helpful, thank you, I’m a continental knitter and find using a knitting thimble or the Boye finger guide (same concept) incredibly useful for tension and catching floats without twisting up the yarn - Norman on nimbleneedles has a great video on FairIsle colorwork in which he shows how to catch floats with the thimble
