How to do the KFSB or Knit Front, Slip Back | knitting increase alternative to KFB

KFSB is the increase all the cool kids are talking about! Just kidding, but I want to talk about it. KFSB stands for Knit Front, Slip Back and it's a good alternative to the more common KFB (Knit Front and Back), creating a less obvious increase for less work. All you do is slip the back loop of the stitch after knitting it. This video will show you how to make an increase in your knitting usin...

    Omg! Gasp! Your wedding dress is, well... there aren't words to describe how beautiful it is!!! ♥️♥️♥️ You are a very talented young lady. I crochet but I'm not a knitter; however, I find myself in need of 9mm knitting needles for a potholder project and saw your DIY Knitting Needles tutorial (thanks for sharing that btw) and that's where I saw your dress. Your comments were turned off on that video so I came here to compliment your work. Hopefully, you will have a daughter to pass your dress down to some day because it's definitely an heirloom piece that any daughter would be not only thrilled but honored to have. I can't imagine how much time it took you to make. I don't know if you make them to sell but if not, you should because people pay thousands of dollars for regular store bought wedding dresses and yours is more beautiful than anything I've ever seen in a bridal boutique and being handmade makes it even that more special. ♥️ With the right clientele, you could make a FORTUNE making and selling them. Anyway, your dress is absolutely stunning and you are absolutely stunning wearing it.😍 Have a great day! 😊

    Something I do to save the environment and money is to buy natural fibered sweater in the thrift stores. 100 grams of cotton yarn can be 5 USD, but if I get and save the sweater with %100 cotton, I save around 300 grams for 15 or 20 cents USC. It's totally insane. But I crochet only with all sweater yarn
