Yes, I love it, and if you use a woolen yarn, you can soak/stir it in hot water and it becomes a nice, bonded, soft, ropey structure, kind of like a felty rope. I made a pretty dog leash that way. It's sturdy enough for very small dogs (like mine in my pic) I don't know about larger dogs though, it might not be strong enough. Btw, I LOVE your colors!
my grandmother spent hours trying to teach me how to knit.... HOURS and i could never learn. you just taught me in 7 minutes haha... how do you make connecting rows? like if i wanted to "finger knit" a blanket
I used to do this all the time as a kid because I was bored and figured it out while playing with shoelaces. Are you telling me what I did in my down time as a 6 year old could've made a hit video on UA-cam?
I used to do this so much as a kid my mom started buying the color yarn she wanted to match her home decor. But that was back in the 70’s when it was popular. I learned this in Girl Scouts.
@Fiber Flux Honestly I want to thank you so very badly my sisters birthday is coming up and I wanted to make her somthing special to show how much I care in these dark times but now I can, with this i can make her a scarf or a cape to wear so i wanted to thank you.
I’ve been wanting to knit for a while but I am young and cannot buy my own materials. This has helped me so much and I love knitting more than I though I would! Thank you so much!
This helped so much! My nana taught us a simpler way to finger knit that made the result very thin and loose, no matter how tight we tried to get it, so this definatly improved the quality of my finger- knit scarves
I honestly can't complain, she speaks slow enough where I dont need to constantly pause it, nice audio and visual quality, and she has a sweet voice. I like this.
THANK YOU BEST TEACHER EVER I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGHHH!!!!💕💕💕💕💕 Edit: I was about to question why mine didn’t look like yours, then I realized your yarn is WAYYYY thicker than mine🤣🤣🤣
I just wana say thank you I am 8 years old and I have allways loved knitting but I never could do knitting with needlles. But I can do hand knitting now thx. :)
Im 11 and i started doing this when i was 9. My dad was there to help me watch this, my dream was always becoming a fashionista, and now i can sew a whole jacket ♡
Thank you so much Jennifer! I didn’t have those sticks to knit with, but I’m sooo lucky to come over to this video and learn to just do it with hands!!! Thank you💋💋
This is the only one that helped me remember how to do this. Thank you so much. I just had a litter of 5 all black kittens and this will definitely help me tell them apart. I just couldn't remember how to do this. It's been a really long time since I have even made these. I use 3 fingers though
This is the first video I'v watched of finger knitting and I'm impressed!!! Like literally this is the Easiest the Funnest type of knitting ever and I love it how you explain so clearly and patiently!!!
"I like to push it down just a little bit!" *pushes it down all the way* Haha this video was very helpful, and I'm not meaning to be rude, but that was my favorite part :D
I’ve watched like 50 different videos on how to knit and I kept getting mad at all of them but I couldn’t learn and then I found this one and then all the sudden it worked thank you so much
I have no clue how to knit but now I want to try this!! I was wondering if you could set up something with more "fingers" and make something wider but use the same technique?? Hope someone can let me know I just saw this is an older video but saw it today on facebook. Thank you
+Sheri Freemantle Thanks for your question...you could also try a loom too. Many of them have removable pegs so you can add as many "fingers" as you like. Hope that helps!
Thank you! My daughter wanted to learn how and the book we got from the library wasn't too clear. Your instruction was perfect. And bonus - I made something too. Who knew I could knit!
Thank you so so much! I tried to learn how to crochet but I couldn’t do it right so I thought finger knitting would be easy and I was right this was so much fun and I had no problem at all following this tutorial tysm! 😊
This video was so useful ! Your instruction were perfect, but I was wondering how might I be able to make the project thicker ? I’ve got a really long scarf right now but I’d like to make it wider. Thanks in advance for your reply and looking forward to seeing more of your content!
When me and my friends were younger we wanted to break a world record in finger knitting. We knitted every recess and created a large ball of knit rope, which was around 300 meters long when we quit. We named it Rollie Bollie (as in roll and ball) and I still have it lying around in my closet as a fun childhood memory 😂
At the end you said thanks for watching . I have to say thank you so much for teaching me how to finger knit because I have been wait for years to be able to knit . I appreciate a lot!!!!!!!🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧😘😘😘😘😘😘😘❤️
After I succeeded in trying this, I didn't know what to do with it. My boyfriend sees it, and used it as a rope to hang his guitar on the wall. Quite strong, this knitting. :)
Do I have to use a thicker yarn? I've been following the steps as exact as possible, and it still looks weird and ends up in an akward knot. Any advice besides the good old, "Keep trying!"
That is a great question and I'm glad you asked. Kids seem to do better with thinner yarn, worsted weight for example, while adults with larger fingers should probably use a thicker yarn. The yarn I used in the video is a super bulky yarn and that seemed to work very well. Hope that helps!
This was so fun and amazing! So proud of myself that I did this..just a reminder that you truly can accomplish things that you may not have ever imagined...
This is great for me and other people! I've been wanting to knit for a long time and I could figure out how to do it and when I saw this i was pretty surprised. Thnak you for making this video :]
Question.... When I'm doing the row it doesn't look pretty like yours. Its all big and looks like a fish bone, even though I'm keeping it as tight as I can. Help?
i just love this lesson (but i haven't watched the other episodes) but this lesson is soooooooo easy, i got it in my first try!!! and i made a long one! - Ajna (a 9 year old kid)

Yes
yes ITS SO HARD
I had to chuckle. Many, many years ago (70)we used to do this. What a sweet memory. Thank you
That's why I was here too. Nostalgia. 😁
Teaching my Granddaughter. Thank you for making it so visible and clear.
Awesome! I’m an ABSOLUTE beginner and I have had no trouble in following your tutorial… awesome job! :D
Nice

Same all of the other "beginner" tutorials are more for experienced people. Just Love this video.

I would also like to know how to use this method for a scarf. This will make it long enough but how do you make it wider?
Joyce Hosseini I guess you would need to add a few fingers to your hand? lol
No, actually, I was wondering the same thing.
Larina Bridenstine To make it wider you would need to have extra finders on your hand, I think.

yeah even mine
Use cord, by that i mean thicker plastic-ey yarn.
Well if you want to if you use thin u can use it again so it beacomes thicker and also im veryyyyyyyyy late
You don't have to use thicker yard this isn't even finger knitting this is finger weaving
Keep trying
Thank you, This Really helped me alot as a beginner, but I ran out of yarn 😞
You are the best!! It worked perfectly! My first time was a success!!! I am still a child and I did it alone
This was so helpful and you gave really clear instructions that made it easy to follow thank you! :)

Fiber Flux where did you buy your thick yarn from
I used thin yarn, it didn't come out as thick as shown in the video. Mine came out pretty loose too, but I'm guessing that's normal?
Silas-Wolf-Fang same thing i did mine with thin yarn and it didnt come out really good!
sarah momy It didn't?
The finger knitting is much more easier than knitting with the sticks. Thank you very much for teaching me to finger knit
What an easy to follow video! Very well done. Thank you🤗
So how do you make a blanket
People with long fingers: I CANT TAKE IT OVER AAAAAAAAAA
Me: looks for yarn
Yarn: I don’t think so

How would you continue, (make another run), off of this one? Like making a hat or something?
Is there a way to do a bunch of these and connect them together to make a blanket? (Use lay terms cuz this is my first time! Lol!)

I'm going to make 30 or 40 really long ones and see them together for a stripey blanket
That's actually really smart and a awesome idea like no joke
omg this is an amazing idea im going to do that thanks so much

Question.... When I'm doing the row it doesn't look pretty like yours. Its all big and looks like a fish bone, even though I'm keeping it as tight as I can. Help?
How many fingers are you using? Are you pulling the string tight with your thumb and holding it down?
