Weavin' Stephen

[@sharonrabinowitz2024]

You have literally made knitting easier for people who love to knit different colors

[@itsnotkira]

I am endlessly impressed with your ingenuity and the way you can break yarn with your bare hands like it's nothing lol! I will definitely be using this technique!

[@StephenWest]

Oh thank you!

[@MsWatchme12]

I'm a knitter for more than 60 years but didn't know this way to change the yarn/colour. That's great - thanks a lot for this idea😊❤

[@MarinaMandarinaWoolyWorld]

OMG! There no more barriers for me to knit fair isle ! Stephen, you opened my eyes and doors to more knitting projects for me 😆😍 thank you so so so very much!

[@2011Colonia]

Endlich mal eine unkomplizierte Anleitung. Danach habe ich wochenlang gesucht. Dankeschön!

[@WhistlestopStitcher]

My mind is blown. I've knit for YEARS but never knew this little trick. Thank you so much for this video! I feel like this is going to make my knitting so much easier from now on, and now I won't shy away from colorwork!

[@НаталиЯ-в9ч8п]

И это правда! Надо и себе попробовать. Я большая перфекционистка, мне надо чтобы было очень аккуратно. Спасибо, Стивен! Ты большой молодец!

[@deafsetter]

If working two tails you could weave one color over one stitch and then next color over the next stitch. So each end would be woven every other stitch.

[@tstramel]

Yep works great and no bulk. I recently did this with a bulky yarn and stranded colorwork to weave in ends. I was going to post this suggestion as well.

[@Tradesmansaunt]

Brilliant

[@janh2999]

I have been knitting for about fifty years and never knew this! Amazing way to take care of loose ends. Thank you!

[@carwai]

You make people happy. That is the entirety of life. ❤️

[@vivianpowell1732]

I tried the double Weavin' Stephen today on a garter stitch project knit in fingering-weight yarn. It felt a bit fiddly at first, but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. It's practically invisible and feels very secure. So glad to have learned about this technique. Thank you, Stephen.

[@amandasmith6776]

Thank you so much! I just started the second color on a blanket with 7 colors and 23 stripes, and this will save me so much time!

[@JoSmith-u7f]

Ok - where have you been all my life? How many projects I didn't do because of multiple color changes. Thanks Stephen - so glad I saw this recommendation on Sock Knitting Addicts group.

[@karenowen300]

Wow, I have been knitting for around 35 years and never knew this. I will be trying this on my next knitted baby garment. Thank you so much for sharing this trick 🤩

[@IndoPersian1969]

Wowza! Where has this technique been my whole life?! Can't wait to try it on my next project. Thank you so much.

[@kathiella575]

I love it! I think I might be tempted to put a tiny knot at the end and then cut

[@Soifdesang9]

Thank you, you have changed my knitting and crochet life for the better!!!!!

[@KnottyKnitWits]

Holy cow- and the man doesn't even use SCISSORS! Yarn Wizard Stephen

[@driadorro4930]

I simply love this technique, I am New to stranded knitting and I will for sure enjoy working with colors much more, because I won’t need to think about all the weave that has to be done at the end! Thank you for sharing it! ❤️🙏🏼🙌🏾🤩

[@clairethompson5549]

I love that you actually break the yarn. It’s so satisfying!

[@babyboo3000uk]

I have just tried this amazing technique part way through a cardigan I am making. Your method looks so much neater.I will be using this method on as many things as I can. Game changer.

[@lindakagan2770]

You are a good teacher. You have such a pleasant voice, too.

[@lindavid794]

What a brilliant idea. I hate weaving in ends. You’re a genius!

[@sarahmatthews2737]

This is the only technique that is so easy and really works that I’ve seen. Life changing!!! 💖💖💖

[@paulacarlson1394]

OMG how am I just learning this now?? It's so easy, and yet it never occurred to me. Brilliant!

[@ryanmcknight1016]

Okay now THIS is a lifesaver AND a timesaver! Thank you for sharing.

[@shelleymetzger7513]

Thank you so much for this tip!! It is so simple but it’s a game changer with my knitting

[@kelj8]

This is amazing! Thank you! I just started a Hue Shift afghan and was dreading weaving in all those ends. This is a game changer.

[@ThatBlackSheepy]

here doing the same thing!! how did your afghan go?

[@helenodonnell8475]

Wow. Thank you so much for this brilliant technique. I wrote myself a note on my next-in-line project pattern to remind me to use this technique.

[@akcalo]

Been hearing about the weavin steven from so many vloggers I just had to see what it was. Boy is this a game changer!! Love this! thank you for sharing this method

[@dianabloomdesigns]

This is life changing stuff! I am so excited. Just about to do a scrappy pair of socks. Thanks!

[@littlegril15]

Where have you been all my life? Thank you for this time saving tip!!!!

[@jayanncox]

Genius! I have 50% of Hue Shift left to do, and I am SO Weavin' Stephen for that. Thank you!

[@karenfields5599]

🧶 You are a genius! There are things I’ve wanted to make but didn’t because of all the color changes and I detest weaving in ends! A million Thank You’s!!!

[@loritassin794]

I love you voice, I love you style of teaching. And of course I love this technique!

[@amymarchandcollins6338]

Absolutely brilliant! I just love the ingenuity of knitters-I will definitely be implementing this in my knitting projects going forward!

[@sabrinagrant8975]

Genius! Thank you so much. This old dog has learned a new trick. 🥰🥰

[@jackiecamacho9764]

Hey I do that now weaven Stephen but you’re indeed the best. I do admire you. Thanks for sharing.

[@maria_knitknits8243]

[@Twigwoman]

Brilliant you’ve changed my yarn joining forever!!!!! Thanx Stephen!❤❤

[@elainelaberge-ethier62]

Thank you so much! Someone pointed me to this video and you just changed my whole knitting life!!! ❤️

[@sharondemayo2615]

I don't know what I am more impressed with... this awesome technique or the fact that don't need scissors to cut the yarn. 😯♥️

[@claragowin2604]

Hey Steven! That's what I do! Sometimes it looks a lil thick ,so I cut one strand of the yarn and weave in the rest. Love your patterns!!!

[@Mehaara]

You have just changed my life.... 😀 Thank you!

[@cynthiaryan2901]

Wow! I never would have thought to do this. Absolutely brilliant! Thank you for the tip.

[@debbiebuttars5598]

You are a knitting genius!! But I think you, and everyone else, already knew this. 😊❤️

[@splash3211]

[@anabarrachina862]

My dear Stephen you're a GENIUS !!👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍😍😍😍

[@debbietodd8547]

20 colours! says he with all the excitement and confidence in the world!🙃

[@Lennongrils]

Um, this is genius! Thank you for sharing. What a total gamechanger.

[@DeanJean17]

I love this technique! I'm using it now to do contrasting toes, heels, and cuffs on my socks. Thank you!

[@peggymoon]

Stephen you are my new hero!!!

[@cynthiachan4439]

Sorcery! This is genius and I love that you named it after yourself

[@anhedoniaw5060]

Mind blown🤦🏾‍♂️😲. New knitter. Thank You👏. I love u

[@CS-zb3ff]

This is a fantastic tip! Thank you for sharing, Stephen!

[@lbottino1034]

Should have read the comments. Used the technique with one strand and dropping the other to weave in on the next row. DON'T, it will leave a hole which that you'll need to close. My suggestion is to weave in a couple of stitches with both ends before dropping one to weave on the next row or to alternate ends as mentioned by Debbie below. I wove in with double ends on the next sock and didn't have an issue with bulk. I knit socks two at a time with magic loop. Great technique and hoping that it holds up to the wear and tear of socks. it just might be the game-changer for me to give up using the double knot join. Spit joins are always the way to go with 100% animal non-superwash fibers. Thank you, Stephen!!!

[@searchingforknowledge4251]

Thank you Stephen!! Such a game changer!!!

[@barbarajohnson1572]

BRILLIANT!!! THANK YOU...THIS OLD GAL LEARNED A NEW TRICK!!!!!

[@littlemonkeysandme3171]

You have changed my life forever! Weaving in the ends is my least favorite thing ever!

[@risacalta3832]

I am so excited about doing the weaving Steven! I have always avoided colorwork because I hate weaving in ends! Thank you so much

[@candacel3305]

I've been afraid of using more than 1 color with knitting. I can do it easy on crochet, but this looks easy. Thank you for this video!

[@lindahinds8388]

Incredible! Thank you for sharing this. I'm in the middle of a lot of color changing projects.

[@jaaess2]

Hello Steven. Great and such a useful idea. It looks great. Thank you for this instructive video, too. I always work over my yarn tails to trap them as I go but it is not like this. Next time I need to do this I will use your Weavin' Stephen method.

[@SallyKnyvett]

I wish!... Ive almost finished a striped polo shirt. OMG after many hours I've completed weaving in the ends. Now to finish and knit the collar. If only I'd found this video a month ago!

[@barbbaumgard5686]

Thanks you so much. I don't do well weaving in ends. This is great!
