Your grandmother had a wonderful technique 💛
I love these "classic" instructional videos. . . really helping me with my current project, with getting enough courage to CUT! Please keep making ones like this! I have a pullover sweater that I felted, it is so warm & heavy I am turning it into a cardigan/jacket.
It's a great cardigan on you Carlos. Well done Arne
Thank you!
I know this is old. But these videos are timeless. And oh how many times I've seen a long for MILES with no bobbin thread! Lol
Thank you Louisa
Oh my, I have that machine!
I never heard the work STEEK before. I was terrified 25+ years ago when I knitted my first Scandinavian pullover in the round and they the pattern called for cutting out the arm holes. Faith in God, I did it. Fortunately, I had sewn before. I swore I would never do another one but you make everything look so easy. Much easier than winging it. My friend wants to make pullovers they find into zippered cardigans. This is great! Thank you so much!
You are welcome!
@@ARNECARLOS Watching the Yulelog on UA-cam. My favorite New Year's Tradition and knitting. Happy New Year!
That was so fun with the bobbin running out. I can't tell you how many times I have sewn a number of patches for a quilt with no bobbin. You chuckle, rewind and begin again. You both are very good teachers. This process is fascinating.
😂
Love you guys. Like that you kept the bobbin thing in there because it does happen to all of us. Step by step makes me feel confident to do this to one of my sweaters. Yay! cant wait to find part 3
Thank you for your feedback Ruby!
Oh you're lucky Carlos to have Arne making your cardigans!
Thank you Marcela!
I learn SO much from you, guys. You're the best!
Thank you!
CARLOS..THOSE COLORS ARE PERFECT FOR YOU
Thank you!
Look forward to seeing it finished, thanks very much for teaching how to do this, very generous of you both. Best wishes
Amazing can't wait to see video 3 😃
I am more of a seamstress than a knitter. It was fascinating to see how you did this and removed the “fear” of cutting the yarn. Carlos, I liked how you shook your hips and showed us that 🎶 the hips don’t lie! 🎵. Great job on filming this Eric; it was very detailed.
That is great to hear, many people are afraid of steeking but as along as you do it right it is easy and fun.
I love your channel. I’m training my hands to knit like you knit.😊
We hope you are having a great time, keep up the good work!
briliant and wonderful , too fun to watch, thank you.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos and this series is really a favorite. Thank you for making this so "doable"!
Need to watch the others later as our dogs are needing feed and walked we have 5 cocker spaniel ranging in age from 16 weeks to 14 years stay safe and thank you
Great tutorial. Steeking has always scared me, but I can definitely do this with your help now. I love that you showed the bobbin running out. That's real life!
Thank you Carlos for the words of calm and confidence about the stitches being held. The first cut is probably the hardest. I am learning so much from your videos. I am so grateful to have found your channel.
You did sucha beautiful job
I like the easy way. Super tutorial ty guys.
Thank you!
I am so glad I am not the only one that forgets to check bobbin before starting.
Arne, your are really a handy-man. 😃🤗👍
Thank you Bea!
I love the process of sewing and cutting the opening for the sleeves and front opening for cardigan, You guys are so cool to watch. Love it.
Thank you!
Thank you thank you Gentlemen. Your videos have eased my mind now. Iam about to knit a Cardigan which I printed from Hobbii and it will be in Alpca Wool and it says in the pattern to Skeet....which I have never heard of before. When I read and saw that you cut your knitting, this made me very very nervous, I have never heard of this technic before or seen it. Now watching your careful video I feel now more confident on trying it. Thank you :)
You are welcome Gabrielle and we are glad to hear thta!
Great stuff so far. Can't wait for part 3.
Thank you for being not only fun, bus also lazy people (just quoting Carlos!). I now feel confident to try this someday. Greetings from sunny Netherlands from JoAn (socklady Wolhalla).
Love watching your tutorials and listening to you talk about your technique ❤️
❤️🤩 Thank you for watching
You two are fantastic! Thanks for all the great tutorials.
Working this cardigan. Love that the bobbin did run out of thread. Reality is part of the enchantment of your tutorial
Steeking scares me to death! However, I enjoy watching you do it! Thanks for the inspiration!
Julie W I think I will pick up a "charity shop" sweater to practice on first, I will still hold my breath...
Thank you for the tutorial, I really appreciate your sharing your expertise with us. I knitted a poncho to pull over my granddaughters head and her little toddler head is a bit large. Now I will use your instructions to expand the neckline by steeling it. ☺️
Sorry for the darn misprints due to my phone. Steeking!
I love learning about this. So glad you did a video of this. I also have a Bernina... It is made in 38/1939. I've had it since 1958. It's a great machine. Love the sound of them running. Thanks for posting. This is very exciting.
I hate when the bobbin runs out like that. I'm glad it happens to smart people too! I'm suddenly thinking that steeking a mostly stockinette cardigan I've been swatching for is a good idea. I can do this. You said so. Thanks for the great videos.
great tutorial guys! I am now encouraged to make a cardigan from a sweater I machine knitted , many thanks!
Enjoyed your video, you guys are great to watch and love your techniques. Thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊
I just found your videos today. I love what you guys do and how you teach. Not taking anything from you Carlos, you are awesome, but Arne, you made me blow my tea out of my nose. LOL You had me cracking up. "Oh my gah..."
Keep the videos coming you two. PLEASE!
I cant wait to see how you do the buttonholes and buttons. Mine never really line up as closely as I want them to. That was funny how Arne got all Norwegian and looked at Carlos when the bobbin ran out! lol. He switched from English to Norwegian! lol. His eyes were like oh no, oh no! lol.
I love ur videos..❤ thank you for making them.. I am looking forward to see more... 🍁
I am just fascinated how easy you make everything look.
Thank you so much for your tutorials about steeking! I am knitting your „patchwork sweater“ in the round and really needed some help and informations how to bring the sleeves in and design the neck line! Your explanations definitly helped as usual! You are the bests!
You guys! This was great!
I’m really happy you made these tutorials about steering. When I was an exchange student in Norway, I made a traditional Norwegian sweater (a pullover, not a cardigan). My host mother took the body and the sleeves to someone else who did the steering, so I missed out on learning how to assemble my sweater. I’ve been scared of doing it ever since! Maybe now I can feel comfortable doing it myself.
Adorable! Love these two!!!
This was a really great tutorial. Thank you. I have a jumper I no longer wear but will now have the confidence to alter it to a cardigan and give it a new life. :-)
The finishing you do looks so good.
Thank you Blase!
Your both good therapy for me. You take the worry out of making this Cardigan
new to knitting but this looks fantastic so thank you for sharing your skills with us , will defo give it a go , thanks best wishes to you both xxx
Thanks for the tutorial guys. I'm planning on making a patchwork jumper so it's great to see how to prepare the wool first. Subscribed :)
In your accompanying blog post you say to cut open the front of the cardigan before marking the curvature of the neckline and where the shoulder seams finish - but I think it's much easier to do as shown in the video, before you cut the front.
Enjoyable tutorial I would be scared to cut into that beautiful sweater
Never be afraid!
Personal question? When’s show did you meet?
Just amazing how great you are together!
Wonderful sweater construction steps ..
Many thanks!🧶💕☕️
I just love you two.
Wow guys, thanks to your video's I started my first knitting project ever, I only have to figure out how to work my mother's sewing machine 😂
Congratulations!
It is a very new technique. Amazing.
We are glad you liked it!
I have a Bernina about the same vintage. Works great
Thanks so much for doing these videos on this. Xoxo
My heart was pounding.
This is very good tutorial.Thanks👍👍
Great job love it i needed to learn how to.
Thanks so much!
You are welcome!
bobbin running out 😂😂 happens to all of us!!
True!
Thank you!Even I understand its technique,I am not brave enough to cut on the knitted material.
As I always been alert not to drop a single stitch while knitting .Scared!
OK!It is going to be my challenge project soon!!!
Hi Arne and Carlos! I just discovered you in your 2020 quarantine videos. I’ve been enjoying you, yet I hadn’t subscribed. This series, filmed with the background of the lake and Arne’s quiet, almost zenlike focus knitting and sewing with very little chatter, completely soothed my soul and allowed me to relax muscles I didnt know were tense. Thank you! I am now a subscriber. P.S. What is the t-shirt? LOL
Thank you for subscribing!
we have the same Bernina :)
Hopefully I can do mine I'm working on. You make it so easy when it comes to steeking I get so scared
a really good idea when stitching stretchy fabric ( or knitted fabric :-) ) is to use a walking foot so there is no chance of puckering. the walking foot does just that - it WALKS over the knitted fabric instead of bunching it up together. :-)
Thank you for sharing this!
@@ARNECARLOS My pleasure dear Carlos and Arne. I love watching your video channel and knitting. so inspiring and fun. Lu x
❤️❤️❤️
💙
Спасибо за видио💖💖💖
Thank you!
Are you going to show how to steek without using a sewing machine? I really wanted to know how to do it that way.
Hej båda två! Har nu stickat klar min blivande kofta som jag ska steeka. Tack för bra video! 👍😊
Har dock en fråga: Vad använder ni för stygnlängd och stygnbredd på zigzacken?
Ha en riktigt fin dag nu 😊
Can you use the instructions for a Steek sweater and knit it like a regular cardigan sweater?
What about using an iron on tear away stabilizer
My pattern calls for short rows to shape the neck. This looks far easier -- does it turn out the same?
That all depends, where is your pattern from?
Never knit a patterned Norwegian Jacket before with multiple designs and ESPECIALLY not skeeting. I am so grateful for your videos !!! But when I am trying to sew the shoulder seams, I have tried to follow what you do but end up with a small ridge on the right side of the shoulder, it is not laying flat, what am I doing wrong? If I do the seam in a different manner, it will lay flat with the seam edge on the inside....Please help,,,,again thankyou so much
Hi Sandra, please contact us through our website
@@ARNECARLOS Maybe my questions is not phrased correctly, I have knitted a Norwegian sweater (which I have never done before) and decided to make it a cardigan instead of a pullover and never have skeet a sleeve and so lucky for you both because I would be lost!!! The thought of using scissors on my hard work was a nightmare and put it off until I watched your videos over and over again, until I had the courage. I watched you hand sew the shoulder seam and when I did it, there was a slight seam on the right side and don't know what I was doing wrong. I have done the shoulder seam a different way now, and the seam is on the inside but want to know how you did it, to have a flat seam on the right side of the sweater. Please wish me luck because now I have to make the collar and insert a zipper and it would be great if you did a video on that. My grandparents are Norwegian but I learnt on my own and wanted a Norwegian sweater. What a project....but thankyou so much for you videos, you are saving me!!!
so if your machine does a longer stitch length should you use the longest you have?
you use stitch length of 4 but if my machine does say 6 should I use 6 or keep it to 4?
if I used 6 (or more if my machines does it) would I have to go around a few more times with the zig zag or would one or two times still be enough?
might have to knit a few samples and have a play with this.
What is your recommendation for those of us who are not very proficient with a sewing machine?
Maybe find a friend that can help!
👏👏👏👏❤️
Thank you!
What type of thread are you using?
Can I do this with a crochet garment too? 🤔
This is for a knitted garment in wool. You will have to try it out yourself as we do not know what type of garment you have.
Likes to see how you Steek the cardigan step by step
What size zigzag?
I am an advanced beginner...watching you cut your work made me cringe. It is so great that you are doing these videos, I'm learning so very much. THANK YOU.
You are welcome!
What’s with the neck? Is that a boat neck sweater?
The neckline hasn't been added yet
How do you figure out exact center? I would not trust myself to make a straight center line for cutting.
Measure it, you can practice on a sweater that you do not use anymore.
Wish I could have a live man I can lols
Vad använder ni för garn, är det bomull eller ullgarn?
Ull
