  • In this video, I show you how simple it is to correct a dropped yarn-over (YO) from the previous row/round.
    The sample I use in this video is from my Learn to Knit Lace pattern and tutorial:
    verypink.com/2011/05/18/learn...
    The scarf on the mannequin is Bay's Edge (not my design). Here is my Ravelry project page with details on the yarn, etc: www.ravelry.com/projects/very...
    The yarn I use is Knit Picks Stroll Gradient - it looks like this yarn may be discontinued. The needles are Knitter's Pride Ginger DPNs.

    I have done this often, and just guessed at how to correct my dropped yarn over. This was very informative to know that I guessed right. Thank you.

    I’ve had to do this more than once. And it’s also a very good reason to put life lines in for when you don’t realize it soon enough and have to unravel back to a row you know is correct. And thank you for that wonderful tip as well.

      Lifelines have saved me many times. Everyone should know this.

    Oh thank you so much! This is exactly what I did and I was mad at myself for not counting halfway thru this shawl row and was lamenting having to tink back again.

    Excellent and I’ve been doing this for years. Amusing to me you started purling on the WS and after that recovered YO you began knitting. I’ve done the same thing on a tutorial I was making myself. Glad to see I’m in good company!

    Love that fabric that your are creating.
    Thank for sharing that technique. ♥️

    Lifelines and stitch markers and counting stitches in each section before moving on is how I keep everything straight in lace knitting. This was all learned through making LOTS of mistakes.

    I've done this so many times, but usually it's 2 rows down (example: dropped YO on the RS, did WS row, spotted dropped YO on next RS)...I found that it's also pretty easy to fix, blocking fixed the tension...

    Thank you for this! I can use all the help correcting errors I can get! lol Just curious: How often do you count your stitches? Every completed row?

    • @CC-xy8nn
      @CC-xy8nn Рік тому +1

      you can also use stitch markers every repeat, and if you find your repeat is off by one you dont ever have to count your whole row of stitches to find the error.

    I'm doing my first pattern with ssk's
    And yo k2together. I noticed when I go to the next row that my lead leg is backwards. The yarn is not resting front to back like you described. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. I'm knitting two together properly.

    Kind of like a m1L without knitting through the backloop.

    • @verypinkknits
      @verypinkknits  Рік тому

      Exactly! The yarn is mounted the same way on the needle.

      You can still pull up the strand of yarn from where the YO should be.
