Thank you for the kind words, Lucie 🙏Of course, one can use a crochet hook to pick up stitches. I prefer to use needles, because to process of picking up stitches usually goes faster with the needles. Happy knitting, my friend!
Thanks for another clear and easily understandable video! I’m finishing my first cardigan and was getting nervous about picking up for front bands and neckline. Hoping this will work for a cardigan as well? Thanks again, welcome back and hope you had a nice break!❤
How come you don't use a crochet needle to pick up the stitches? I always do - crochet needle over yarn before pulling throug, then there will be no need to twist stitches when starting to knit them

Of course if speed is what you're after. I'd rather it was easy, and I'm not in a hurry. Thanks for replying.
