  • Welcome to The Blue Mouse Knits! Today I will be teaching you how to join in the round when working in magic loop invisibly. This is great for projects like socks, to start knitting socks with a jog in the cast on. This is a great invisible join for magic loop, you will need 1 extra stitch when working this join because you will decrease 1 stitch in the process.

    Thank you so much for this. I have spent 2 days watching videos to try and help me stop ladders when I join on magic loop, and this is the clearest, simplist way that I have seen to join.

    Thank you for the clear and concise demonstration! Yours is the only video I've found so far to explain how to do the invisible join technique when working with magic loop. So thanks again and keep up the good work!

    Finally! The best way I’ve found to join and keep my needles and working yarn in proper positions! Thank you.

    This was super helpful! I’ve been trying to do this to make a hospital hat for a newborn baby using circular needles and could not figure out how to join in the round for such a small circumference. Thanks!

    This is really helpful! I actually just did an invisible join while using magic loop and it was really hard. I think your method is better. I will start using this technique. Thank you for this video :)

    I’m so confused.. 1:00 the working yarn is on the back needle. At 1:22 some how the working yarn is now on the front needle 🤔 so confused and I’ve watched it over 10 times following precisely every step, and I don’t get how the yarn somehow switches position?

    • @TheBlueMouseKnits
      @TheBlueMouseKnits  2 роки тому

      The working yarn is in the front at 1:00, I think the tails might just look that way. Try this video is you're confused. It's a bit of a slower tutorial, that might make it clearer: ua-cam.com/video/FObqLE0jZ9M/v-deo.html

    does it matter that the number of stitches that I have on each needle are uneven after this? For example, I casted on 34 sts and split it to make each needle have 17 sts on each side. After doing this, one needle has 18 sts and one has 16. Is that a bad thing, or can I just start knitting?

    • @TheBlueMouseKnits
      @TheBlueMouseKnits  Рік тому +1

      Hi, it depends on the pattern you're knitting, or the type of project. If you're knitting something in basic stockinette it likely won't matter. If you're following a pattern for something like socks, it should tell you the number of stitches to have on each needle. Generally, I'd say as long as it's close to being half and half you're probably good. You can always rearrange them as you go. Hope that helps!

    I have a query, it may sound silly. How does one keep track if they have completed one row and then move onto row two. In magic loop

    • @alexandra3804
      @alexandra3804 3 роки тому

      I usually write it down! So once you complete stitches on needle 1 & needle 2 that's one complete row.

    • @lydiastraka3986
      @lydiastraka3986 3 роки тому

      Notice where your tail is at the start of your cast on! Whenever you're knitting into that column of stitches, you're onto another row. With regular knitting in the round you need a stitch marker, but not with magic loop since you're repositioning your needles halfway through a row then at the start of a new row. If you need to count rows, just write it down each time you begin a new row.

    • @margaretedwards4157
      @margaretedwards4157 Рік тому

      Each new row starts when you get back to the bit of the long tail still hanging from your needle.

      I agree with all the other comments. This was so clear, and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you

    Why 1 stitch extra?

    • @TheBlueMouseKnits
      @TheBlueMouseKnits  9 місяців тому

      You will decrease one stitch in the process of joining in the round.

      @@TheBlueMouseKnits but I am in the middle of a project. I made increases to the bust of a sweater. I can't add more stitches than what the pattern says..
      May be you can make a video, where you show how to use magic loop on an ongoing project and not on cast on stitches.
