I just knit for the first time in my life!!! my very first scarf!!! I used Lion Brand in the color #189 Napa Valley Pinot! Can't wait to knot another one! Thank you for your help!!
Your video is the best one I have seen yet on how to do this. It helps immensely to have the video taken from behind so I can see what you are doing, compared to others where you are looking straight at them and then have to figure out how to do it in reverse.
Knitting in front of that fire must be so relaxing..love it ! Thank you for the video!
Maggie, you explain and demonstrate great! With the camera behind you, gives you the same perspective as if we were doing it. I knit terribly but I may gave this a shot. Wish me luck! Love the dog -- he's really enjoying the warmth from your little heater!
Thank you! Good luck. If you have any questions feel free to ask here or on my blog.
The way you explained and showed how to do it made it easy to understand. It was so simple! Thank you! Best video for beginners.
What I really wanted to say is that your puppy is SO lovey and cuddly cuuuuute! What a wonderful face he has! Your love for him is extremely evident and his presence in the video is as charming as the scarf is beautiful...
I tried this with the thinner yard and it turned out great! you are an excellent teacher! thanks so much!!
Thank you for several things:
1. Putting the camera behind you.
2. Being very clear about the "working yarn" vs. "the tail"
3. Using fat yarn that's SO easy to see what you're doing
4. Puppies.
You've saved my sanity while also making me miss my dog!
Aw. You're very welcome! What kind of dog do you have?
SimplyMaggieblog He's a mutt, not entirely sure. Some lab, husky, and apparently rotweiler! :) instagram.com/p/kpGx1DBIS0/
Very handsome! ;)
The scarf is super cute & amazing. And your doggie..adorable as ever!!
I am in love with that fireplace that your doggies are basking in front of.
I have never tried this before and I made four of them this weekend using your tutorial. It is excellent and Premier Yarns ship to the UK at very reasonable charges. Thank you :-)
First time I saw this kind of project. So neat, beautiful and well explained on how to do it. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi!! I had a Great Dane just like yours and even had same collar, she just passed away on new years. Just seeing you baby made me cry... gorgeous
thank- you so much. I've been struggling to learn to arm knit for quite a while now. Your video finally taught me how.
Your pup is a beauty. ❤️ Great tutorial, and I love your cozy little home.
your house is sooooo pretty! it makes me feel like you are a super happy and content person...and I love your dog!
Ok had to make a blanket with this yarn. It was 3.00 at AC Moore and I used 12 Skeens with 15 stiches. It makes a great cuddle movie blanket...so in love.
Best instructions for arm knitting I have found.
I love your scarf, it looks the best of all the arm knit tutorials on UA-cam. I know that off you have a short neck it looks ..bad, turtle bad, but I wonder what it would look like if it were not as wide. Thanks!
Really enjoyed the video. Been crocheting since I was five, so I could follow pretty easily. Will definitely attempt to make these! Thanks!
Thanks again! Very good instructions. "Remy" was a real addition to my enjoyment of the video as well.
Great video. My daughter and I watched together and you were an excellent instructor. Absolutely love your dane. I used to breed harlequins, and my daughter has had boston blacks, black, and tan great danes. We LOVE them!
Gotta get me some of that great wide and thick yarn...makes it so easy! Thanks for a very well done and informative tutorial...you're a wonderful teacher! Georgia
I THINK THIS IS GREAT! I can't wait to do this myself and what a beautiful, warm scarf it makes in such little time! Thank you for making everything step-by-step clear 'cause my eyesight is so poor. You explain things well. I'm looking forward to arm knitting as soon as I get my yarn! I want to make a bunch of them for some very nice people I will be staying with soon in Michigan where its really, really cold.
Thanks for such a clear, informative, and entertaining video! I love your dogs too - they are beautiful and so funny.
Aw thank you and you're very welcome.
I like the color you pick! Like the place you did your shooting!
I love your Arm knitting projects!! I think you do a wonderful video explaining, especially when you have the camera behind you. Then it looks like "I" am knitting if I follow your hands. I haven't tried this yet, but I like the idea that I can pause the video as you go. Thank also for telling the exact yarn you use. Can't wait to try this. Thanks again, and your dog is adorable. Lisab
This was my first attempt and my scarf turned out perfect! I used Lion Brand doubled up (15 stitches wide) so it's longer and slouching than in the vid. Great tutorial. Thanks Maggie :)
i could listen to you all day, and what a lovely setting to teach us from :) thankyou for this great idea
planetearthtechno Thank you :) and you're welcome.
Crochet
This looks like a great project for upcycling old sweaters
It was my first time knitting and it turned out perfect, exactly as you shown, thank you!
I used Patons Cobbles yarn in 6, super bulky
great tutorial! can you do a tour of your home because WOW I'm loving it
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I just made my first one and now I'm gonna make more for some Christmas presents!
omgosh, thank you so so much!! ive always wanted to try arm knitting and i finally did it with your video, so so excited with my scarf!! came out beautiful!
very nice, thanks for sharing the video i really enjoyed it and will try to make it. I never thought of crocheting with and arm, and the curiosity called my attention. Very creative..
I just stumbled on this video aaand I have 2 deaf danes! Brother/sister, and 10 months old! Aah this made me so happy, she's adorable!
Thanks a million! I was able to get it started and the process became second nature. Now I have learn how to end the scarf, lol.
I love it, it's unique and your dog is adorable.
Hey, this was really fun to make! A few mistakes, but the third time was a charm :) - Thanks, Maggie!
Great video. You instructions are so easy to follow. Love the pooch. So sweet. I have a small apartment. I can only imagine what it would be like for a pooch that size in here. I have a 5 lb. chiwauwau. She is a handful even at her little size. I am just learning how to knit, and am having a time with arm knitting, which I find so fascinating(doesn't take much to fascinate me anyway), but I will keep at it. You will eventually get him trained to understand he is no longer a little puppy and does not need attention 7/24. Even though as mommy's we still see them as babies sometimes. Enjoy them. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Maggie!! I love your teaching technique. Great for beginners like me! My question, with using the Couture Jazz yarn, would 1 stein be enough for making a youth scarf?
Hi! I loved this video and how you explain it all. Have you ever knitted a bean bag? Thats what started my search but the price of the enormous knitting needles needed have put me off. Do you think its possible to arm knit a bean bag or would it just be too big and therefore too hard?
oh my god, this is so cool, and this can keep you warm in the snowy days too, cool thanks
So easy, great video tutorial... and so pretty your dogs!!
A suggested tip for you regarding the part where you tied your second skein of yarn to the end of the first: After cutting the tips off, you can use fabric glue, and put a couple of beads of glue just under where you cut off each tied off end, in an inconspicuous place where as not to be seen, and place those ends together onto the glue area, and/or tuck it under the knotted area with the beads of glue to keep them in place and let them dry. That way the knot will not come undone.
I just found your site, I love it and hooray for big dogs.
Nice video! I have never seen a great dane with blue eyes! Awesome!
Thank you for posting arm knitting
It was great, loved it
Great tutorial video! Very helpful. Good viewpoint for learning. Keep doing more. I subscribed!
This looks great love the chunkiness of the scarf! Just thought of an alternative for if you can't find the thick yarn anymore - I think using a piece of comfy fleece material found at a fabric store and cutting it into strips will work just as well. You can even braid multiple strips together to create your 'yarn' and get a super texturized infinity scarf. I don't know how my brain came up with this (ha) but I can't wait to try it!
Hi Maggie, great video tutorial. I'm looking forward to using this yarn. How many rows did you do here? I find that sometimes I get done and I've done one or two rows more than I would have liked. Thanks!
I finally understood how to close the ending thank you 😊 And have a Nice Christmas 💗
I love the room that your were in, When i get a house i want it to be like that.
Thanks for the video. I am going to help my mom and friend who have arthritis learn how to do this....it's much better and faster than crocheting. Also, beautiful dogs.
Really enjoyed your video, I am definitely trying this out!
Is one ball of the kind of yarn you used enough to make the scarf?
your dog is so beautiful. thanks for the video
What an awesome video! Very clear instructions. I made this with the thick and quick yarn and cast on 13 stitches. Definitely subscribing to your channel :-)
I am beyond excited to start making these and the blankets!! You are fantastic at demonstrating this! As soon as I was just a couple minutes into your blanket tutorial I knew I could do this. Ordering yarn but you mention the supplier you buy from. Can you tell us the name or a link? Thanks so much. I found the yarn on Herschels but no discount or free shipping for buying there. Wonder if your supplier does anything for big orders. Thanks so much! You've got a new fan!
Gorgeous! And your dog is SO adorable!
Thank you!
I went crazy looking forma this yarn and I found ir at Amazon. The best parte is that they deliver to México :)
Thank you so mucho for this video :)
This is so cool! Going to watch (pause and repeat) to get that casting on part down. I wonder how beautiful it would be to use 4 or 5 (or more) different yarns (colors, eyelash, ribbon, etc.) all at the same time. How about using fabrics like batik, silk, or fleece torn or cut into strips? BTW I used to have Great Danes. They are the sweetest babies ever.
Love this video...thank you for showing me how easy it is to do this. I heard about it and have only made one but made a mess out of it. LOL! But you showed me how easy it is to do it the right way. LOVE your sweet Dane Remi, I have one too and he's always sitting on me and leaning on me...wants to be front and center of it all. Aren't they grand! It is their nature to lean and be a lap dog, they have no idea how huge they truly are! =)
This was fun and very easy to do! thanks!!! greetings from Mexico...
Thanks for the tutorial, just made mine, and it was super easy!!
Your dog is gorgeous. Great video😚
Just subbed where u get ur wood stove it's nice ! Ur house is beautiful n ur doggies! Thx for doing it in a serene environment n showing how to do a blanket what about for children a infinity scarf video I have a 4 yr old n 21 mth old boys, please if u could show hoe to do for children thx
I cannot find this yarn anywhere, do you know of any alternative brands of yarn that are just as chunky and beautiful and this one? your help is greatly appreciated! by the way, I love all of your videos. they are truly an inspiration to me and I love trying your patterns! thank you!
Your dog is beautiful!! Mine also has a unique personality and I wouldn't want it any other way.
You dog is adorable
Thank you:)
Omg! I have a Dane too! I am actually trying to figure out how to make him a dog bed with this kind of yarn. Not sure how I am going to do it yet. Lol Btw your dog is gorgeous!
Maggie this looks beautiful. I ordered the Premier Couture Jazz last night.. However, had to call today to ask a few questions today and apparently although it doesn't state it on the Premier site the sparkle yarn (which I ordered) is only 13 yards vs. 16.50 yards. If I needed 2 skeins to begin with will there be enough to make this infinity scarf? Instead of being 33 yards total it will now be 26 yards. Do you think I will need to order an extra skein? How many yards do you think are needed to make the scarf? I wish you had put it on your neck in the video so I'd have some idea what it looks like on. Do you have it on in any of your other videos, if so which one and I'll take a look? Thanks for sharing this. I can't wait to try it. It would have been fun to make for gifts during the holidays. Next year I guess!
Vicki Bensinger You may be able to get away with the 2 balls if you do one less row.
Simply Maggie by doing one less row do you mean instead of 6 stitches do 5 or instead of 20 rows do 19? By the way how many rows is this scarf shown above?
Vicki Bensinger
+Vicki Bensinger The yarn I used came in 21 yards for one skein and that's all i used. My ends were a little shorter than Maggie's by the end but i could still finish it off the same (just cut less off) and it is plenty long enough for me ( about 18 rows but I'm not very good at it yet so it was quite a bit looser than i think it should be..)
this is gorgeous i'm gonna try this thanks for sharing
Love this tutorial..you have have the cutest little house..or from what I can see of the room lol..
I'm curious do you use sign language for your dog? Your dog is so adorable! Cool scarf!!
Love Remi chilling by the fire! Kind of looks like the luck dragon in the Never Ending Story :o) Great knitting videos - thanks for posting!
Hey Maggie, just a quick question, I keep trying to arm knit, but after putting on the second row, it just keeps getting looser and looser and theres extra string everywhere. how can I prevent that? Awesome video by the way! Gave me inspiration:)
the scarf is cute; love the dark green and the chunky look. But, more than that, I am in LOVE with your dog! :-) Forget what anyone else has said - I want to see MORE of the dog, not less ;-)
Awesome I love my scarf so much! I want to make a blanket with this tarn. Do you think it's possible to make a blanket with this? I was thinking to cast on 10 rows if I can fit on my arm and sew together. What do you think?
This yarn would make a wonderful blanket. I have a tutorial with different yarn for a blanket on my channel.
Nice tutorial! Your dog is gorgeous by the way! :)
Loved your video, will be trying this for sure,.
I absolutely adore your dog !!!!!
Awwww, just love your dog. Sooooo pretty. Love Danes.
Thank you:)
What breed is your big white dog? Great tutorial by the way
Wonderfully clear instructions!
Very Helpful!!! Do I need a bulky, yarn, or can I use a thin yarn to make this scarf?
it just looks a lot better with thick yarn
Thank you for making a video that I could understand very easily!
LOVE This! You do a great job and I love your hilarious dogs too!
Thank you! :)
Maggie, please tell me where you get your yarn. I can't find any that big or nice here in Toledo.
Premieryarns.com
This was a very easy tutorial. That olive yarn is very hard to find online, sold out everywhere :( Definitely gonna look through my local shops!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing! Also your Dog is too cute!!!
I love how your dog grumbles when you tell him no. Mine does that too. :)
If I wanted to make this for a child that's 1-2 years old would I just cut everything in half? Like amount of yarn, width, length etc? Btw, my neighbor has a dog just like yours and she is also deaf. She's very sweet!!
Hello Maggie! Just wondering if you know how to make the part with the button on it also?! Doesn't have to be an arm knit! My sister loved that part of it! (Christmas gifts!!)
I have a tutorial on my channel :)
You are so talented. Thank you!
Thank you! And you're welcome :)
The first thing I thought when I saw your face was "Anna Kendrick...O_O?" lol ... but I am definitely trying this, this winter! YARN FOR CHRISTMAS!!!! Woooo lol
Hey Maggie I have a question I am a newborn photographer and wanting to make layering blankets using the super bulky yarn. Wondering if I can chat with you since I cannot post pics to show you what I am talking about.
Your house is beautiful!
I'm confused. When you are casting on and talking about the one in the "back" is that the string that is being held over the index finger and inbetween the index and middle? At the angle of the camera I can't see the string in the back you are talking about
your dog is so cute and beautiful!
Great video! Also SimplyMaggieblog where did you get your fireplace? it's so cute!!
hi! great scarf! which are the final measures??
