    Wow, that's like doing a provisional cast on! I'm going to try it. :-). EDIT: It's not a provisional cast on. I'm left-handed, crochet left-handed, but knit right-handed, so I really have to work to interpret knitting techniques that involve a crochet hook. Clearly I didn't get it quite right!

    Hi! I would like to thank you VERY MUCH for all your useful videos, I've always had problems in reading cables and lace patterns, and before finding your videos I've spent really a lot of time looking exactly FOR THIS (for a series of very simple videos, one video for every single stitch, easy to find, easy to look for, and fast to see ..this was EXACTLY what I was looking for!) but, before now, I never find nothing similar. Now I've finally found your channel, and it's really PERFECT, so I've already subscribed, and I will look forward for other videos ..so, please, don't stop working!! I'm sure that A LOT of other people are looking exactly for the same thing, you only have to give them the time to find your channel (believe me, it's not easy, in the ocean of UA-cam videos, and the white graphic of the preview image of all your videos didn't help.. probably an eye-catching photo, or, at least, a larger text in a brighter color, could be better ..it would help people notice your videos between the others! ..who knows how many times, scrolling through the list, I may have missed one of your videos, while I was looking for a tutorial that would teach me how to decipher patterns ...probably I would have noticed your channel sooner, if the preview images weren't all white with very small writing (anyway this is the only note I have to make, otherwise your videos are perfect). So, again, thanks, thanks, thanks!! (and sorry if my English is not perfect, I did my best ..I hope I didn't make too many errors..), see you soon, Lisa (from Rome, Italy) ⚘⚘⚘ 🤗

    I knit eastern continental way, the difference is in the purls, you wrap it the other way round on the needle, much much easier !! And much faster too! But I also hold the needles and my yarn this way, my left index is even ON the needle!

    I'm an English knitter mostly, but when I do colourwork or two-stranded knitting, I knit continental with the dark colour just like you do, and English with the light colour. I can't quite get the hang of purling continental though - most tutorials, folks don't hold the yarn the way you do. I'm going to try your method! With colourwork, it's mostly in the round for hats, mitts etc so not a lot of purling required, but I've always wanted to get better at continental 😊. Thanks for this!

    I finally found someone who knits like me. I tried different methods before, I did several tests to see if I noticed any difference with my knitting style; but I didn't notice any so I decided to continue with “my style” which was super comfortable and without much stress on my fingers. Excellent tutorial! God bless you!

  • @donnabursey1457
    @donnabursey1457 Рік тому

    I knit the same way, with the index finger very close to the needle and just pick the yarn off my finger. My index finger doesn't move at all. The purl is different than what I do, and looks like it might be a bit faster. Have to try it out!

    This isNorwegian knitting…and then when you purl, you want to learn Norwegian otherwise your stitches will be twisted and the resulting fabric is twisted, just an fyi

    • @theresafedoriw5003
      @theresafedoriw5003 Рік тому

      I don't believe this is Norwegian purling; it is continental. In Norwegian purl the working yarn is held behind the left hand needle while in Continental it is held in front of the left hand needle.

    • @chtitmog
      @chtitmog Рік тому

      This is indeed continental knitting, but this is not a unique style - it is Norwegian style. 😊 This is how I knit too - my index gets cramped if raised too far from the needle. 😂 I find this style to be very ergonomic for my wrists and fingers. Like you, my purls are not twisted. This is a good tutorial btw. ☺️

      This isn't Norwegian purling it starts with yarn at the back and there is an extra twist. This is continental purling I can't do it I end up doing Eastern purling which is easier but you end up with the stitches back to front and you need to knit into the back. Fine if it's just stocking stitch like here not so handy in something more complicated
