Knitting Help - Slow Motion Correcting Color-Change Jog
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- In this video, I demonstrate how to correct the "stair-steppy" jog you get when knitting stripes in the round. For one-round stripes, see the link below for Helix Knitting.
The other videos in my slo-mo series can be found here:
• Slow-Motion Techniques
The yarn I use for demonstration is Paintbox Yarns Wool Mix Chunky.
The needles I use are from interchangeable sets:
Knitter's Pride Ginger 16": amzn.to/315rSrQ
Knitter's Pride Zing 16": amzn.to/3aOZSNv
If you are working one round stripes, the technique is different. You can see my video on Helix Knitting here: • Knitting Help - Helix ...
The hooded cape on the mannequin is Lost in a Dream Cape from Kraemer Yarns:

The hat I use for demonstration is just something I made up for the video. Here are the quick instructions to make this baby hat, because I know someone will ask. :)
Fits 0-8 mo
Bulky yarn, size US 10 (6mm) needles.
CO 60, work 5 rounds 2x2
change color and knit 4 rounds
alternate color every 4 rounds until hat measures 5" from cast-on edge (that was the ribbing plus 4 rounds of stripes or 16 rounds, for me). On the last round of this section, place a marker every 12 stitches.
Decreasing
Round 1: k2tog, k to 2 stitches before marker, ssk, sm repeat between markers to end of round.
Round 2: knit
Repeat these two rounds until 10 stitches remain, k2tog around, knit 1 round. Cut yarn and string through the remaining 5 stitches.
Thank you so much for your helpful and concise videos! Your channel is always the first place I go for content to help me become a better knitter with whatever project I'm working on.
Hello from Nova Scotia! I am knitting my first 2 colour toque for my Granddaughter. I have seen a couple tutorials about jogging. But, I must say this is the best one I have seen. I have a UA-camr friend & she told me about you. I am so grateful for that. Thank you so much for showing me in slow mode. It made it so much easier for me. I know I will be back. :)
You have helped me become a better, more confident knitter. I just can't thank you enough!
Idk what I’d do without you 😂 thanks so much for posting this video!
Thank you very much for this video. An annoying problem with such an easy fix.
Thank you so much for the slow motion videos! As new knitter, I need to see the process in slow motion.
Thanks for this video. It's given me what i need to know to knit with multiple colors. Yours is the channel I always come to as my learning resource.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am a very visual learner for sure. I learn so much from your videos. Thumbs up!
Thank you for the great tip. I never knew that. Now my hats will look much neater. Thank you again💕
I'm just about to start my first striped hat and this is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
I’ve seen this before, always amazes me how simple but effective it is.
Loves these slo-mos!
Simple. Easy. Thank you!
Perfect timing! I was just starting a striped project and needed the refresher :D These slow motion videos are great! Thank you :D
Ahhhhhh easy 🧶 why have I been so nervous about doing this 🙈 thank you for slo-mo 👍🏻
HELLO STACI THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO ITS VERY HELPFUL......HAPPY KNITTING HAVE A GOOD DAY
I have come across your site for the first time now. I have been a knitter since I am 13 and now a well seasoned senior. I knit on and off when I have time but want you to know that you site has renewed my interest big time. I was asked to make a baby sweater for a newborn or maybe a 6 month old an now with your site I will feel confident that I won't take on anything I can't finish. Not only are you beautiful, lovely but your site is just incredible with the opportunity to follow on the slow motion end. Thank you so much. I must ask about the yarn you mention as I am not aware of that brand. It seems it is not sold in any of the leading craft or knitting shops I know on Long Island. There is one slow motion I do not see that I would like to and that is the casting on which, I believe starts with just one strand and not having to leave a long tail.
Once again, thank you.Edye
Thank you lots as I have started one. Going on nicely. Inspired by you.
Thank you for sharing I learn something new on your podcast every time thanks again💞
This is extremely helpful to me. I have been knitting the two different colors together for several stitches and then dropping the old color and moving forward--secure but does show up on the finish stock. The idea of tying a knot for the two in the back is something I have not ever done. I always thought knots were a big no-no however I will try this. Thank you very very much. PS the slow motion helps me
This series is excellent.
I love this slow motion video . Super easy to fallow 👍🏻😀 Vickie G
Wow! Like magic and so simple.
Love, love this tutorial!!! Thanks so much for sharing with us...
Thank you for this. It's a great reminder.
Love your videos and I have learned so many techniques from you . I follow you on insta 📷 and love your quilt hanging on fireplace classy! 👌... oh and the dogs too!! I just self taught myself provisional cast on. Knitting love notes sweater and starts out with provisional and I didn’t use waste yarn and used too big of circulars to make a join duh! Learning curves but it’s all good ! Thanks for video on colour jog!
Thank You! Such a simple technique. Will definitely use this!
I have learnt new tip . Thank you for sharing.🇦🇺
THANK YOU! Love this method very much.
we visual knitters thank you!

:O Wow! So easy, so effective! Thank you for yet another great video. x
Wowsers! Thank you!

Hugely helpful. Thanks!
Omg, thank you so much 😊 great video
Thank you for this video. This helps so much. 😊
Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Brilliant! Thank you so much. Your instruction is excellent, as usual.
This was very helpful for me
So awesome! Thank you!
Thank you ! So easy to do ,
You are the best ❤🌷🙏🏼
Is it the same when you purl? I can’t seem to find anything about that. Thank you so much! Your my go to lady! 😊
Thank you ☺️
Thank you 😘👍🏻
TFS . This helps 😊
I've got another question. What if you would like to change colour every round? So not continue with the blue, but with another colour. Would you then change colour in that first stitch and then pick up the blue right leg at the start of the rond after that? (Now the blue and pink "share" that first stitch, so then only pick up the blue leg of that shared stitch?)
For one round stripes, you want to use the Helix Knitting technique: ua-cam.com/video/wm4TPNwaOKw/v-deo.html
Merci 👍🏻🥰
Thank you so much!
Hello. Do you have a tutorial on how to fix the jog when you go from stockinette rows to garter stitch rows in the round? Is that even possible?
Can anyone help me figure out what I am doing wrong? After I do the one round color change and knit the stitch below with the first stitch I notice a hole between the last stitch and first stitch of the two rows.
I understand how to do the jobless stripe, but those stitches always seem to be loose, even after blocking. Is there a trick to keep them from being loose?
How would this work for a 1 round stripe? I’m knitting a sweater with different widths of stripes, some of which are 1 round, but not all of them.
Thanks for the video! Does this move the start of the round at all?
Thanks for this slow motion version. I have been using your jogless technique since you first posted the original video on it. Do you still tie the 2 tails together with a knot after you add a new color? I find that step to be a big help as well.
Yes, I always tie the ends in a tidy knot.
Would this also apply to Fair Isle when you are changing colors almost every row?
Also is it possible to fix previous rows or do I need to just frog it all.
Is there a way to link the standard video, that aren’t slow motion? I created a new YT account after purging some of my socials last year, and I’m making an all new knitting playlist. When I look through your “videos” tab, all of the vids are slow motion, and I’m scrolling for 10 minutes.
I totally get it if it’s not possible, or just too much extra stuff to deal with. I appreciate all of the videos you’ve done over these many years. Your videos helped me a lot when I started knitting in the late 2000’s.
I often link to the standard-speed video on my channel in the video description field, but I don't always do that, sorry. Here is the standard-speed video for this technique - ua-cam.com/video/jrVP129BnRg/v-deo.html A search for any technique should bring up results showing both speeds - it shouldn't take long to find. :)
@@verypinkknits Thank you so much.
⁉️ Is it possible to FIX a previously knit jog in the round? I’m almost done with my piece and noticed the jog. Is it possible to fix it without undoing any rounds? I can’t seem to find the answer anywhere and am hoping maybe someone here would know! Thank you 🙏
Do you do that correction when knitting with self-striping sock yarn?
Does this work for garter stitch stripes on straight needles?
Can the same thing work if the old color is a purl row and the new color is also purl row before switching back to stockinette?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I find that doing this technique with a purl stitch doesn't always improve the look...in my experience, it usually looks better if you work the technique with thinner yarn, but it doesn't look so good with bulkier yarn. You can always work the technique, take a look at the work, and decide which way it works better.
VeryPink Knits thank you. Sometimes I have the yarn forward then slip the stitch then put the yarn back so it shows as a purl
3:33 Colour Change Action
So easy to fix! Thank you. Are the lifted stitches visible in a long row of corrections? Does is look odd?
No - does not look odd. You can see in the video that the stripes end up looking really even, and will be more even after blocking.
@@verypinkknits thanksfor the response. I'm about to start a striped hat and this will be such a helpful solution!
Thanks so much for your great videos! Question for you - Sooo... should I use this technique for single round stripes too? I don't want to do helical knitting on the socks I'm making. Thanks! :)
For single round stripes you want to use a technique called Helix Knitting, you can find my video on that if you search my channel.
@@verypinkknits Thanks very much
How about the colour change jog when you do colourwork in the round? Because I tried this once in colourwork, but it made it look wierd in a different way because the colour underneath overlapped the new colour (which you dont want since it's part of a figure you try to create). A lot of colourwork sweaters (or socks) are knit in the round and I cant find a way how to deal with the jog at the beginning of a new round
You can use this technique for fair isle, but depending on the color pattern you're knitting, it may or may not improve the look. Also, it may improve the look on one round, and not the next. It depends on whether there is more than one color at the end/beginning of the round...the best thing to do is to give it a try, take a look at the work, and decide whether or not to work this technique on that round.
Can you do this when knitting fairisle in the round?

VeryPink Knits Thank you I will give it a try, I am knitting Latvian mittens and some of it is strips so I am sure it will help with those bits.
I wish I had known it two weeks ago... 😭 Is there any way to correct the work afterwards, when weavin in the yarn tails?
Hmm...no, this technique has to be worked while you're on that round. But you learned something new for your next striped hat! :)
May I know what is the name of the hooded poncho behind you?
Thank you
I forgot to add that to the video description field (just added it, here is the info): The hooded cape on the mannequin is Lost in a Dream Cape from Kraemer Yarns:
