First of all, great shirt Arne ! Thank you for the refresher on duplicate stitch. I've used it many times for a little pop of colour , never thought of it as "painting with yarn " but i will now. Have a wonderful week, see you Wed
@@karenscott2359 I use a hand steamer for my knits and crochet. I dream them to soften up the yarn and then shape it. I don't use a lot of wool though, it's too expensive here in Canada. You should be able to find some good videos. Good luck !
Duplicate stitch lesson was fantastic, the close camera was so good, helped to see not to pull stitches! Thank you. Glad your putting a pink in collection.
Thanks for more tips on duplicate stitch! From the Quarantine Knit group & your UA-cam & the Arne & Carlos family I have come to follow knitters in many countries, and my heart is going out to those in Ukraine, and with concern for all in Finland & the Baltic nations too. . .
Beautiful mittens and hat with the stunning tiger design. The black & white mittens are a nice complement to the hat with the tiger face in duplicate stitch. I agree with Arne that having a contrast between the hat and mittens is preferable. So one has the tiger face, and the other has the tiger stripes graphics pattern. Not matchy-matchy, as pointed out. Clemson University in my state in the USA has the tiger as its mascot. Think of what a beautiful and timeless graduation gift a set of these pieces would be for someone graduating from Clemson, LSU, or other school with a tiger mascot. They'd last a lifetime and you'd never tire of their classic designs, because they're more sophisticated than school-mascot items you see elsewhere online.
Love your tip on joining yarn ends without knots, using the same structure of wool that has allowed for yarn making. I learned how to drip spin wool, when knitting, I always join my next skein of yarn by teasing about 1/2” of yarn at each end, then adding twist to both ends, and joining by rubbing ends between dampen fingers as the extra twist runs across those ends. With practice, you can make a continuous yarn that has t good joint strength. And you knitting fabric won’t have knots.
My mom just gifted me the knitting Scandinavian style book for my birthday. Im so excited to have my own copy instead of getting it from the library every few weeks.
I love doing duplicate stitch, kind of like needlepoint and knitting in the same project. Just waiting for my Rowan Norwegian wool to arrive in the post to make my own set. Cute tigers on the table, too!
Wonderful tutorial! I’ve always been reluctant to use much duplicate stitch before this, because I was worried about what to do with all the extra yarn tails. No longer! Those tiger mittens are just “the cat’s pajamas!” 😻
Hi Arne and Carlos thank you for doing the duplicate stitch it's always something I've been afraid off but Arne makes it look so easy, the tiger design looks so good. Have a lovely week xx
Hi Arne and Carlos! I’m new to your work but I’ve been enjoying watching sit and knit for a bit while knitting your Vidar sweater. Thank you for such a wonderful pattern book from Rowan. You can thank Cynthia and Barb at River City Yarns in Edmonton for putting me on to your work ! I look forward to working with more of your sweater patterns after I finish this one (btw this is my first sweater- a great first sweater pattern). The model in the pattern reminded me of my brother who has since passed so I am knitting it in memory of him. Thank you!!
I love the concept of painting with yarn and you have helped me see so much more potential for duplicate stitch than I had ever imagined. Thanks so much, guys! P.S. Arne's shirt is superb! Great to see you both looking so well.
hmmm - I have been wanting to know how to do this because I want to make my granddaughter a Harry Potter sweater with her initial A on it. She's only 2 years old at the moment so I have plenty of time! I think I can manage that now! Thank you guys - I hope you are both well xxx
Hi Kate, glad you are going to try this, it’s a lot of fun! We are doing well, hope you are too! Hopefully we will be able to do that zoom chat with you one day soon ! ♥️
That's a great tip for the duplicate Stitch which I haven't been able to do it that well yet, I need to practice more🙂. It's also a beautiful pattern. Nice shirt Arne🤗.
That was fun! I could do that technique! The video was very helpful and makes so much sense to do on those beautiful tiger faces. Well done! Can't get enough of you two! I am so glad I discovered you! Life hasn't been the same since! You keep me coming back for more!
Arne you make it look soooo easy. My new project is crochet daffodils for a charity over here. One a day for the month of March. Each time I make one I discover an easier way to do them. Hope your both well and organising your next trip. See you both Wed. 🧶🧶🪡🪡🧵🧵👌👌👌👋👋👋
Happy Sunday. Thanks for the refresher video. I like the duplicate stitch. I used it to add a design to a boring grey sweater I purchased. Have a wonderful week
Yes I am going to make the hat for my family in Louisiana because we all love the L.S.U tigers. They have a real tiger mascot named Mike the tiger. Thanks for the tut.
Thank you enjoyed watching you do duplicate stitches! Arne love your shirt! Love the hat and mittens so very very clever! One of these days I’ll get around to do colour work! Maybe my next challenge! Xx 😘🧶😘
Defiantly like this guys…… so useful and something I haven’t done before. Hope your weekend has been super. It is beautiful here in the Lake District, England. Cannot wait for Wednesdays Sit and Knit again 🧶🧶
I sat here trying to remember what we used to call duplicate stitch in 'my day'. I knew it was a place name, so went to look in my 1970s book. Swiss darning.......... that's what it was called. Presumably it was used in Swiss knitting. Very effective whatever it is called!
hi guys i love this Duplicate stitch i am going to learn this to put on my knitted birds i love your shirt arne the hat and mitts are beautiful i hope i can get the stitch it is so great well i better go thanks see you wed
I purchased the Norwegian wool and pattern on your website. Thank you so much Arne and Carlos! I'm looking forward to knitting and doing duplicate stitches.
I look forward to your Sunday tutorials. Hope to incorporate duplicate stitch into future projects. Please consider coming to Philadelphia, PA some time in the future. I'd love to meet you in person. Take care!
Thanks for this. I was trying to do a colorwork sock with long carries (what d’ye call them?) and was disappointed to find that it was too inflexible afterward. So perhaps I will FINALLY learn duplicate stitching.
I just love this tiger pattern. Would be great if you designed other animal patterns - cat, dog, lion, mouse whatever. I'm also very fond of duplicate stitch, mostly for correcting my errors in colourwork lol
WOW!! Absolutely stunning❤️❤️❤️. I am trying the duplicate stitch for the fist time on a my first knitting hat. I’m worried because hats stretch. Should I make the duplicate stitches looser? I’m worried about when the person puts the hat on the stitch will be too tight. Should I make the duplicate stitch loose so it can stretch on the head? Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us especially to a beginner like myself. Hope you both enjoy Thanksgiving🤗
If not a football team …have you heard of the series in the US “The Tiger King” ? Love your designs, you two must be so busy, when do you get time to sleep!
I hate to critique because its so good but its hard to follow. Can you film over Arnie’s shoulder please? He goes so fast. The view is not close enough if he did it slower and explained slower perhaps. Love your designs but find its hard to follow someone who works so fast and efficiently without giving us the very over-head closeups. Thanks.
Hi Trudy! Thank you for your feedback. As for the speed you could try to use the slow motion function on UA-cam, we will look into the angle. Best wishes, Anna
UA-cam has a number of videos showing clear closeups of how to work the duplicate stitch in knitting. Here's a link to a video that not only has good camera close-ups with plenty of yarn color contrast, but also features an animation that clearly shows the anatomy of the duplicate stitch and the steps to work it. LINK: ua-cam.com/video/5mO26NhLmiQ/v-deo.html
What you do isn' t simple knitting, but art !!! 👍👍👍😁🌻🌻🌻
😊
A & C - this is a particularly smart approach to ‘colorwork’. So simple appearing so complex. The tiger design is beautiful too.
First of all, great shirt Arne ! Thank you for the refresher on duplicate stitch. I've used it many times for a little pop of colour , never thought of it as "painting with yarn " but i will now. Have a wonderful week, see you Wed
You as well Barb!
How do you block your hats? I knit an Arsenal team hat for my grandson, but he doesn’t have it yet because I am nervous about the blocking🥲

With yarn.

Wow. That was really cool. I had no idea what you were talking about. Just beautiful.
Thank you❤️
In keeping with the killer mode, Arne is wearing his blood splatter shirt! Love learning something new!
Great!
OH! I thought they were roses. But it's a great shirt anyway
Aha! That is much easier than knitting the mittens and hat with so many colors. Thank you for showing us how to paint with colorful yarn!
You are welcome Karen!

I’ve used duplicate stitch for years for accents but not for larger areas like the tiger. Brilliant idea and the results are stunning!
Thank you!

Interesting. I have done a few tapestry paintings in the past, this kinda reminds me of that 🥰 🎨🧶🪡 Love it 💟
Thank you!
Very nice pattern as always.
Thank you!
Looking good! Finally figured out how to download the patterns I ordered on your website! Now to use them…
We hope you like them!
Maravilloso diseño, una genialidad, solamente las personas que son felices pueden transmitir la belleza, son ustedes hermosas personas.
Loved the hat🐯
I’ve never done this before, but how pretty it looks! Thank you for demonstrating this technique!!
Ooh, I love the little tigers on the table 🐯🐅 can you do the stranded colorwork with multiple colors? Or should you always do that with just 2 colors
"grrr grr" that was unexpectedly funny.
Grrreat!
Wow!!! I love it
Thank you!
How pretty. I guess it’s just practice,practice, practice! but my eyes get so confused 😐. Awesome pattern👍
Always more practice
Love it well done
Thank you!
Another fab tutorial. Can you still get the Norwegian wool through your web site? I didn't see it, maybe I looked in the wrong place. Takk!
No, you need to go directly to Rowan
Detroit Tigers! Baseball!
