Knitting | Increasing Purl Stitches using the (M1P),( M1RP) , & (M1LP) ,
In this video, you will learn how to perform a purl stitch increase call the M1P (Make 1 Purl). All increase stitches lean off to a direction which helps create shape and a "specific" look to your knitted piece, so when a pattern calls for you to M1P, we show you how to determine if you need to make that M1P as a M1RP (Make 1 Right Leaning Purl) or a M1LP (Make 1 Left Leaning Purl).
Here's a little cheat sheet that you can write down so you don't have to refer to the video while you're knitting your project:
M1RP: pick ladder up from BACK TO FRONT & THEN PURL THROUGH FRONT.
M1LP: pick ladder up from FRONT TO BACK & THEN PURL THROUGH BACK.
If you need to learn how to increase stitches on the KNIT side of your work, check out our video on How To Increase Knit Stitches using the M1, M1R (Make 1 Right) and the M1L (Make 1 Left).

    With this one, I realized that I have to "turn" my purls first so the first "leg" of the purls comes in front. Then I can follow up the instructions on the video. Otherwise is a mess. This depends on the way you knit the purls).

    PLEASE never delete this video. This is the simplest, most digestible explanation I’ve seen for this bind off method. I used this method to do a 2x2 bind off on a sweater hem to match a 2x2 tubular cast on neckline and it worked very well! All it took was a little experimenting with my bind off tension and I was able to get an edge that gave a very nice ‘rolled over’ effect.

  • @kanareads
    @kanareads Рік тому

    Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was wondering if you have any tips for when the bind off doesn't start with a Knit Knit Purl Purl, but instead starts with the second knit stitch or even purl stitch.

    • @projectweekend9121
      @projectweekend9121 9 місяців тому

      Hmmm... great question! Since you would be jumping into the bind-off sequence half way through by starting with the Purl stitches, you would have to thing about how those purl stitches need to be "worked" before you bind them off. Test on a smaller piece of work first, and remember every stitch needs to be worked knitwise and purled before it is bound off.

  • @janet7640
    @janet7640 Рік тому

    The Best! Thank you. Having done Norwegian purls leaving my purls “backwards” on the needle as I did the ribbing, using this/your method to bind off was especially easy. Again, thank you!

    This looks quite messy. I watched a bunch of different tutorials for this and the final result of the process is by far the worst in this one. You can't see the consistent V pattern in this one at all.

    • @projectweekend9121
      @projectweekend9121 9 місяців тому

  • @joanneboag5993
    @joanneboag5993 3 роки тому

    There is no need to have to push the right hand needle with the left index finger to complete the stitch if you use the right needle as a tool and not a glorified stitch holder. After wrapping the yarn, use the right needle to "scoop" the new stitch off the left needle so you don't have to push with your left finger tip.

    • @projectweekend9121

      Welcome! So happy you're here! I am using a yarn called LOLL. It is a bulky yarn that I developed with a Peruvian Fair Trade Certified mill and is a blend of 35% Superfine Alpaca and 65% Highland Wool. It is so naturally soft (not chemically softened!) and such a joy to knit with. You can see all the colors it comes in on my site projectweekendshop.com as well as the patterns and kits I offer. The needles are Lykke brand needles, which I sell on the site as well. Hope this helps, please let me know if you have any other questions! :)

    Hi, I'm a total beginner to knitting. I've got a kit which is slippers with pom-poms. Just realised I have to make the stitches with 2 strands of yarn, so here I am. I'm using merino wool on 10mm needles. I rolled my skein into cakes so I have both ends of the yarn and am now casting on 🤗 Can I please ask why you are using needles that are actually attached to each other, + what are they called ?!? Also, is there a name for knitting with 2 strands together ? 👍🏼💐

    • @projectweekend9121
      @projectweekend9121 3 роки тому

      Hi! That's so great you're diving into the world of knitting! Sounds like a fun project you're working on. The needles in the video are called circular knitting needles. They work just the same as straight needles when you knit flat items, but you have the option to also knit items in-the-round with them so you don't have to seam up edges together. I'm starting to use them for all of my knitting projects as they have a shorter profile which is great for storing and for packing along for travelling. Knitting with 2 strands of yarn at the same time is also called Double Stranded Knitting.
