    this is hands-down the BEST tutorial on the internet for a one row buttonhole. I love that you explained how to avoid creating holes, why you twisted stitches as you did the cabled cast-on (as well as how to actually DO the cabled cast on). Really valuable video!

    Everyone finds the way I taught by my grandmother to knit as I am left handed I pick up stitches with the left and hold my yarn in left also this means my pearl goes in the front left needle into the loop to right downward and lefts it over to the left when I knit stitch I go in front front to back in an upward with left needle picking stitch up from the right so I have no idea what thos method would be called at all in the slightest to knit I pick up the stitch lay over back to front pull needle down amd stitch over to the left 😂 😂 but our family tree is a smorgesboard east to west meets old romana meets European Irish amd Welsh so it could just he a combination of sorts that has been passed down the ages I do however find it extreemly quick amd means the tension is always perfect

    Im still a bit of a beginner knitter & Ive got so many diff ones ive tried, the bent, the hook, one thats a spiral, ive even used a small stitch holder/marker. I also found holding the CN in front really awkward BUT i found a solution! Knitpro has a set of yarn needles that come in a wee round wooden holder (i think theyre from the "mindful" set/series from memory) & theyre far too big to use for weaving in ends imo so i used the wee wooden holder for my other yarn needles but put the knitpro needles away. Then one day i saw a video of someone using a plastic yarn needle as her CN & figured the bigger wooden yarn needles could be the perfect length & thickness for a cable needle & they are! I slip my sts onto the needle (theres 3 or 4 in the set & all diff thicknesses) and to stop the CN getting in the way i stab it thru my project! It holds it out of the way and also stops any sts falling off! PS - So if ur looking at ur project from the front, holding at this ---------- angle, you put it into the yarn on this | angle I guess you could say the knitting/needles are the top of a T & the new CN when stabbed into the knitting is the stalk of the T - so 90 degrees i guess?!?!

    @MrsGump 6 днів тому

    This is how i start 99% of my knit projects. I dont put the yarn between the needle & hook tho, i go around both - both ways look great its just my preference. Its a fab way to cast on if you have issues with ur tension (esp as a beginner knitter) & i find it makes my knitting much, much tidier looking then doing a long tail cast on plus ur tension is even. Also, instead of putting that last stitch from ur hook onto ur needle, chain 1 & then put THAT st onto ur needle - itll fix that last st from being a bit slanted & not as straight or tidy as ur st at the other end (ur 1st st).
