    I used this bind-off for a sock last week that ended with a K1P1 cuff-- it worked so well that I used it on a hat (K2P2 rib brim) I'd procrastinated finishing and it is fantastic! This is now my go-to stretchy bind-off: thank you!

    I actually just recently used your old tutorial a few days ago to help bind off my first sleeve of a sweater! This was great!!
    I got kind of nervous with knowing what to do with the last remaining stitch but I winged it and treated it as if It were a last loop of crochet and sewed it into the work invisibly. Idk why having free-hanging knit loops causes so much more anxiety than a loose-hanging crochet stitch lolol

    I've been looking for different techniques to try and this came up when I searched for "stretchy bind-off". I just tried it on a shawl that has both knit and purl sts. I have to say, I really like it! It's a very easy bind off to do, it's attractive, not bulky, neutral enough to use on Knit and Purl w/o having to bind off in pattern, and most importantly it IS nice and stretchy!! This may become my go to "all purpose" bind off! Thank you for sharing.

    I'be used your previous video for the stretchy bind-off and I'm delighted to see you always just do it with the knit stitch, rather than trying to duplicate the pattern! Question: Am I correct that it seems to use more yarn than the regular non-stretchy bind-off? Important to know when you're knitting down to the last yarn on the skein which I often do.

    • @susanchipman4459
      @susanchipman4459 3 роки тому +2

      It definitely uses more yarn. It is, in fact, the extra yarn that accounts for the stretch. You're essentially knitting the stitches twice.

    I will need to undo a too tight bind off in order to use this stretchy version. This will entail needing to join more yarn as I have already cut it. Any recommendations for the best yarn joining method for this situation? The cast off will be visible as it is for a sleeve cuff.....many thanks.

    The neckline of my sweater ends with a purl row, and the patterns says to BO purlwise. I need a very stretchy BO as I am ripping out the regular one because it will not go over my head. Should I BO purlwise, and if so, through the back loop or just purl 2 tog normally? Thank you for ALL of your great videos!!

    • @verypinkknits
      @verypinkknits  2 роки тому

      No, not unless the sweater is very fitted/tight. Your best BO for most sweater hems is a regular BO using a needle size larger than you used in the rest of the sweater. ua-cam.com/video/VrcZDngom_E/v-deo.html

    • @verypinkknits
      @verypinkknits  3 роки тому

      It might look flared when the sock is off, but you might find that it fits well (and does not flare) when it is actually being worn. If you think the BO is still too loose, you can adjust the tension by still using this stretchy BO, but using a smaller needle size.
