Fixing stitch mistakes was brilliant. I really love your tutorials.

[@AndreaWongKnits]

Glad you like them!

[@sheilal3172]

I am learning to knit socks and I put a "safe line" between each section of the sock. It saves a lot of tears! Thanks so much for this, Andrea!

Error one got to 3:40 and watch at 25 % speed you will see the correct way to do it.

[@heidiroycroft9465]

I real like the idea of putting in the safe line in the row of loops that are on the needle. I have messed up by dropping down a row or getting the wrong leg of a stitch when trying to place the safe line down farther in the fabric.

[@AndreaWongKnits]

I am glad it was helpful, Heidi!

Thank you so much. I needed this big time.

[@AndreaWongKnits]

You are so welcome, Sara!

Error 3 6:58 where the thread has to be for purl versus knit

[@AndreaWongKnits]

The yarn has to be on top of RHN to knit and below RHN to purl. I have videos on my channel

[@tamarabaug8366]

My hiyahiya cables have a safe line hole. This allows me to knit them in. I am able to pull them out later on. Saves lots of time.

[@AndreaWongKnits]

Those needles are so well made!

[@tamarabaug8366]

Lol I made so many of these on first project years ago. Think I frogged 100 times till I got it all right. What needle and cable are you using?

[@AndreaWongKnits]

I am sorry I did not heave the videos when you were learning. It would save you so much frogging... Keep up the good work!
Mostly I use Signature Needles and Knit picks ones. Signatures is going out of business.
