      For each increase row, we increase by 2 only, correct? Beginning with 3 (that was initially casted on) then 5,7,9,11,13,15,17…. Is this right?

    I had a little bit of scrap yarn from other projects and wanted to make a bandana, figured it wasn't enough to crochet my usual pattern so I thought to knit one to use less yarn! It came out perfect, thank you!

    i’ve been trying to do this but i don’t understand how row 2 works- after i knit the first one, i don’t get how to knit the other one (the added knit). i’ve tried so many times and i can’t understand how you get it to work. how do you do the knit with the added ones in row two?

    • @mena_makes
      @mena_makes  4 роки тому +1

      hey! Do you mean the step at 4:00 of the video? It's a bit tricky because you need to insert the needle through the back part of the stitch rather than the front (as you normally would). I'm just wondering if your stitch looks the same as mine does before you work it? If not, maybe there is a problem with the yarn over increase from the previous row.

    • @lmrlmr9
      @lmrlmr9 4 роки тому

      @@mena_makes im pretty sure i’m inserting it in the right place, but when i take the yarn to knit it and bring it over to the other needle, i don’t really get the mechanism right. like i don’t know how to bring it over to the other side- does that make sense? are you knitting it but just doing it from the back?

      Hello! After you cable cast-on on the right side, you have to knit across the row (so all the new stitches and old stitches). Then when you are at the beginning of the next row you cable cast-on another 30 stitches. I hope this answers your question (:

    • @mena_makes
      @mena_makes  4 роки тому +2

      Hello! do you mean the circular needles? (The needles with the cord in between). If so, so you don't have to use these. You can use normal straight needles. You will need a pair of straight needles in this case. The only thing is when you make the ties (you need to cast on 30 stitches for each tie) you will have a lot of stitches on your needles so it will be a bit harder to see what's going on but it should be fine (:

      @mena_makes  3 роки тому +1

      Hello! hmmmm I have never held my yarn with the left hand before so I'm not too sure.. I think though once you insert the needle (through the back loop) the action/movement of the yarn is the same as a regular knit stitch.. sorry I can't be more helpful! good luck (:
