Another excellent lesson. The image at 5:19 (the smiles and frowns) helped me understand the structure of a stitch especially when I have to even out loose stitches.
Excellent, step by step tutorial Suzanne. I'm going to get my needles out and follow along with you to reinforce the learning. Thank you for being so thorough. Your lessons are invaluable to me!
I think you did a very good job explaining the difference between the loops (stitches) on the front needle and the loops (bars *between* stitches) on the back needle, as well as the missing/lost half-stitches on the top portion. So good to see you back, Suzanne!
Hello Suzanne! So nice to see you back! I have an idea for new videos; could you pls make videos of how to „seam color work“? fair isle, or striped knitting, yarns carried at the sides? It would be so helpful. Happy knitting 🧶
Question: I would like to do grafting on a Christmas stocking, and I have two sets of live knitting that I wish to connect. The top portion with the child's name is ready to be grafted into the completed body of the stocking, the bottom portion. Each section has 66 stitches. For the grafting/kitchener stitch, the top = back and the bottom = front, correct? I'm concerned that because both sections are live, the loops coming from within each other (not off to the side as in the back portion of your tutorial) that it will not mesh nicely. What are your thoughts?
I hope you see this. I need to graft a seam under the arm, so not flat, but in the round. I’m having difficulty doing this task while filling in the holes on either side neatly. Do you have a solution?
I have a video about avoiding the holes at the underarms - ua-cam.com/video/8K-IsMdTHK0/v-deo.html. While that was filmed using a cast on underarm, the hole avoidance part would be very similar. I do find that I get bigger holes from grafting the live underarm stitches vs grafting cast on underarm stitches You might want to try on a swatch first.
Yes, kitchener is another name for this type of grafting. This is useful for lengthening the body of a sweater knit from the bottom up, or grafting a cast on to a bind off edge, for example a cowl. It is the precursor to learning more advanced grafting techniques which I am going to make several videos about. Stay tuned.
It’s great to see you back. you are a very thorough and precise teacher thank you for the lesson.

Amazing.
Thank you.
Is it possible to graft (Kitchener) 2 pieces when 1 oueces has been knit bottom up,and the other piece knit top down?

Thank you for being so clear and concise. Is this a Kitchener stitch? When would I use this stitch?

@@SuzanneBryan Thank you.
This seems like Kitchener stitch? I rarely do that so I always have to review videos, but it sure seems the same.
Yes, this is the same as kitchener.
