you're a great teacher! I have another tip to share for arm knitting...use the restroom before you start your project.
😉
Haha! Yes!
I was waiting for this vid since u posted about on IG! Can't wait to try it. I know filming these videos must be tedious but i really appreciate the time u take to explain how to do the knitting. Great vid!
I love this new look. I enjoyed arm knitting, but like you said, you get big loops or spaces..... I cant wait to try this new patterrn out! Thank you for this tutorial. Its amazing, love, love, love this look!
The easiest to follow tutorial I've seen! :) thank you so much for this video! this has become my go-to for arm knitting!
What I do when I need to stop arm knitting is I transfer the project on to a roll or wrapping paper lol. Also, Thank you so much for this video and all of your videos I really enjoy them! They are so helpful and people always are so impressed with my arm knitted projects!
Gorgeous! I love all your videos. Thank you for taking the time to explain things so clearly.
I have that exact same yarn btw... It's my favorite and I found it at Walmart! LOL it's beautiful
That’s pretty, I don’t think I could do this one:( but it looks like the same method as using knitting needles. Which I can’t do either. Thank you very pretty!🙏🏻
Hi, Amanda. Thank you for the tutorial, it helped me a lot! I watched your video last week and made a 10 stitch scarf during the weekend. I loved the end result for my scarf.But I was wondering if you have tried not to move the skein and just move the working strands. I started following the exact movements from the video but it was too much for my arms. I suffer from hand pain when I abuse my hands from too much computer or crafting, and so I did it just moving the strands out of the way (near my elbows) and I felt less tired. Just thought someone might benefit from this. Keep up the good work :D
Oh my god, I loved this tutorial because I'd like to make an arm knit blanket but I was wondering how I could have the look of smaller spaces. How many stitches and rows do you think is enough for a good single size blanket with the linen stitch? Keep up the amazing work :)
How many balls of yarn did you use for this particular blanket?
Love this! Can you do a video of this stitch , in a throw pillow? Please
Hi Maggie, loved this tutorial! Thanks for sharing. Just wondering how many stitches/rows would you recommend for an adult size blanket?
Also...Will you be uploading a video of this finished project?
Hi Maggie! I love this stitch and I can't wait to do it and make a blanket since it is tighter and I have had trouble with holes for the knit stitch.
Just wondering....how do you cast off from this, is it just a normal cast off just like you would for the knit stitch or is it different?
Thanks :)
Beautiful,, thank you for showing us how to do this stitch. Very easy to understand. Just wondering if you could show us a finished project using this linen stitch.
Kathy Sheeran Sure! I'll upload a video soon
Oops, I forgot to thank you.....
Thank you so much for sharing!
Oh ok thank you 😊
Was nervous about the big spaces on the other stitches, now I DEFINITELY want to try this (I've never done any kind of crochet). Getting ready to head to the store for yarn but I can't figure out how many skeins I need to purchase. Please let me know so I can get started. Thank you!
Love love your videos, and this stitch! My work is coming out binded together automatically. I have never had this happen before with arm knitting. I can't see the end of my work hanging from my arm, it is attached and loops back behind my arm. It has to be the slip stitch I am messing up. Have you had this happen? I keep watching trying to find my mistake but can't see it. I would really appreciate your input. Thanks!

How much yarn do I need for a 30" x 40" baby blanket? I will be using the same yarn you used in the video.
+Simply Maggie Sorry to bother you but I was wondering what dimensions (for a blanket) you would recommend for someone who is 5 foot 3in.
hello, love Ur vids! Is it possible to not do 20 stitches? I'm trying yo make a scarf using the linen stitch for my 1 yr old granddaughter. Using 20 stitches would be too much for her. Would maybe 7 or 8 suffice?
Thank you for this video. I want to make an adult sized blanket, how many skeins/yards of yarn do you recommend and also how many chains cast on and rows? Say, for a blanket that is the size of one of your previous vids or about 2-2.5 ft by 5-5.5 ft? I have seen similar questions but no reply.
Suzanne Fong
Do I have to use two strands of yarn from the same skein or could I use to different skeins.
I was wondering how many stitches and rows would be needed in order to make a regular sized blanket? And what type of yarn would you recommend for the normal size blanket?
Thanks for this tutorial! Do you finish the linen stitch the same way you would finish something with a standard stitch?
+Erin Markel Yes :)
How many stitches would you suggest for a throw to fit over a queen bed?
What yarn do you recommend? I need a very good quality one that don't shed much. Thanks for the tutorial! Great job!
Paola Bradfield I used Lion Brand Yarn Wool Ease Thick and Quick in the color oatmeal, that yarn doesn't shed too much, it's quite durable and machine washable.
+Simply Maggie Love this! your wonderful :-). How do you bind off though??, can you email me and let me know pleeeeaassee :-). thecakecrusader@gmail.com :)
Awesome tutorial could you do this in an arm stitch sweater?😉to share.
Thanks! This is awesome, I too was wondering how you could get smaller spaces... so how many rows would you need for a good-length scarf? And is it possible to do with only one skein of yarn?
D3LyricooL3xiLou You will need a couple of skeins at least for a scarf. As far as rows, it will be quite a few! probably 60 or more.
Simply Maggie Thanks so much for telling me! I love this closer knit and can't wait to get started :) It's very beautiful, thanks for sharing!
How are you using two strands of yarn from the same skein?
i have a very thin wool. will that be a problem? i don't have bulky wool with me
I want to use this stitch for a blanket so how would you add another skein? Is it possible?
Erica Holbert , maybe cut the (since it will be connected) and tie on like any other skein? That's what I, going to try, anyway. How many stitches do you think it will take to create a medium blanket?
How many rows and stitches would you need to make a blanket fro an adult? and how many skeins would you need for that?
Depends on the thickness of the yarn.
I'm sure there is a forum for this somewhere.
hi maggie, can i use this tecnique for do a scarf? can you help me with this? thank you.. you are the best!
I am italian and no one italian tutorial can explain me as you do.
:)
I've made scarfs with this stitch, they turned out so well!
hi Maggie , just got into the whole knitting thing, still have not gotten the whole needle knitting down , but am enjoying the arm knitting. Was wondering if its possible to make a baby blanket w/ the arms? Just had my 1st grand baby (girl) and would like to make her her 1st baby blanket.please let me know. And also the chain scarf what kind of yarn are you using w/ that?
+Donald Fox When arm knitting I suggest keeping the age 2 and up. For the chain scarf I show in the video what I use.
Hi Maggie I am new to this channel! And how do I end the stitch ? Like it is still on my arm and then I have to close it so it won't open or something ?
+Noora. Cats Hi there. Head to my channel and look for the video on how to bind off.
i keep struggling with my stitches becoming knotted by the end transferring the stitches from the right to the left. it becomes almost impossible to slip the yarn off my hand. i haven't figured out what's happening... any suggestions?
can you make a baby blanket using this method, and how many balls of yarn would you need , and how many cast on's... Thanks
Hey! Sorry to bother! I'm from Brazil and arm knitting it's not well known here, so i learned from you :D
But I really have a doubt. I'm arm knitting for my final fashion college project, and I was wondering, in the linen stitch, you take both endings (center and side) of the yarn, how do you continue knitting when the yarn ends, because, if you take the center and the side string your yarn ball will end in a loop. do you just cut it and continue with a new yarn? Thank you! :D
P.S.: Congrats for the baby! :D
When I get to the end of moving the first row to the left arm, the final stitch is always so baggy. I feel like I must be tightening wrong along the way. Any suggestions, guys??
Does this style of knitting use more yarn than the basic knit stitch?
That came out nice where did you get your yarn ?
Ashley-Nicole Camacho I used Lion Brand Yarn Wool Ease Thick and Quick in the color oatmeal and I got it from ACMoore.
what happens if you do one row, knit/slip and then the next row slip/knit?
How would you add a skein if your already using both ends of the yarn?
Cut it, tie new ends on, keep going like nothing happened.
What on earth do you do if something happens when your arms are all tied together? How quickly can you get that stuff off?
I'm fine with the first row but when I switch to move the stitches back to the second row I'm stuck... the stitches don't look the same. I'm lost because my knots don't look the same... maybe the wrong yarn? Can anyone help?
I wouldnt like to take it with to the bathroom, so I would like a suggestion as to what I can place into the loops. I thought rolling pin or empty foil, plastic wrap tube or holiday paper tube? But those arent readily available as I forget to save one & dont have a rolling pin; papertowel tubes are too soft. Anybody have a thought?
+Doris Leyba i use a pool noodle, and that seems to work.
+Doris Leyba maybe to tubes from wraping paper....
I love this but how do you finish it? Is it the same as the chain? Thanks :)
+Stefani M You bind off the same as other arm knit projects.
+Simply Maggie Sorry I'm very knew to knitting...what does binding off mean? Is that similar to tying a knot?
+Simply Maggie Sorry I'm very new to knitting...what does binding off mean? Is that similar to tying a knot?
Hi Maggie, Please explain more in depth about pulling the yarn from the end and the middle as you state at 1:09 in the video? Thank you!
Hello. A skein has two ends. One you can easily find on the outside of the skein the other end is tucked inside. So find them both and use them together as if they are one strand.
+Simply Maggie Thank YOU!!
Thank you thank you thank you! :)
How many stiches and rows would you suggest for a baby blanket?
Hywania Thompson 40 or 50 stitches and atleast 60 or 70 rows.
Thank you!
I was wondering how many stitches I should cast on in order to make a blanket?
Kristen C do a gauge. Knit a few stitches a number of times (6) and measure how many stitches are in a inch (or foot). how big is your blanket (let's say 7 feet). so you will do some multiplying. number of stitches/foot x length of blanket = how many cast ons. i.e. stitches /ft x 7ft
Hi maggie, how do you ends the stitching of this?
Kelly Leung it says in the description that it's just normal binding off like in other videos. :)
What brand/type of yarn did you use in the video? Thanks!
Lanita Burgess I used Lion Brand Yarn Wool Ease Thick and Quick in the color oatmeal.
Simply Maggie Great! Thanks! Beautiful pattern, can't wait to try it!
How much yarn required?
kirti sinha this is just a video teaching the linen stitch, not an actual pattern
Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering how many rows and stitches you would recommend for a child's scarf between ages 7-10? Also, can you recommend a video for a little boy scarf around the age of 4?
Thank you!
+Celeste Minjares Cast on 6 stitches and knit around 20 rows
+Simply Maggie thank you! :)
+Celeste Minjares For safety purposes it's not recommended to put a scarf on a 4 year old.
