I'm an English knitter, but I learned continental so I can do two-handed stranded colorwork (it works really well for me). I have not tried stranded colorwork knit flat yet, but I find the idea of stranding on the purl side super intimidating.
I'm an English knitter but I wish I were a continental knitter. I have never knitted in the round and when I teach myself, I'm going to do it continental style.
@@nuriagiralt617 I'm actually currently taking an online class where I'm learning how to do traditional Norwegian stranded knitting and it is a gamechanger!
I am getting ready to start my first stranded colorwork knitting project (the Flying Geese Hat on Ravelry), and I have been watching numerous UA-cam tutorials on that technique. This one has been the most helpful for me, mainly because it focuses only on the English knitting method for colorwork. All of the other videos I have watched crammed in Continental and Norwegian colorwork along with the English style. The result was a mess, and mass confusion, even from knitters whose content is usually very helpful. I'd almost given up on trying to master stranded colorwork. So glad I found this channel.
I'm so glad!!! This is how I started with stranded knitting! I have since moved onto Norwegian stranded style, but I think it's a good place to start! ❤️❤️❤️
I just found your videos a few days ago and what I have seen so far I love.❤ you are so nice and helpful. I am inspired by all the beautiful things you do. I need to finish a bunch of proyecta I started and can’t wait to try one of yours.❤❤❤❤ Your house and pets looks so cute!!!! Thank you!!! Sunny from Kansas
I love the design of that little dress, and the colors. I'd wear a sweater like that. It's gorgeous! I haven't tried stranded knitting yet. This will be a good start.
Hi, I’m an English knitter that’s just starting back after 25 yrs with back problems. Wow, has the crochet and knitting world changed! Thanks for this tutorial, it was clear and comprehensive and I think I just might have a go at this bunny myself. Much appreciated. Thanks from Australia 🐨🐨🦘🦘
I'm so glad you're back knitting! I think it has really changed in the past ten years or so! So many gorgeous patterns and projects out there! The bunny pattern is extremely well written with a lot of good explanations!! 🐰🐰🐰
I appreciate the clear instructions you give. Especially about carrying the "floating" yarn behind the work. I enjoy seeing Olive involved in the process! My fella has to be with me every step of the way as I create, as well. I'm still not a skillful enough knitter to do amigurumi in knitting. I respect your work, Elise. All your creations are just lovely.
Thank you so much! I really believe that so many of these skills aren't that difficult once we break it down into small steps. I really appreciate all your support! 💜
Hi Elise Thank you for sharing. I absolutely love the bunny but especially her outfit I just love your design 💗🎵🎶🎵and the purple is gorgeous too. I love that poem you made to help someone learn to knit. If I ever get around to learning to knit I’m definitely making this dress 👗 it’s adorable. Olive is snug as a bug under her blanket lucky girl 😻 Take care and stay safe and well. 🙏🏼💗🧶🦋😻
Such a cute rhyme. Nothing worse than having a huge tangle mess with the two colors of yarn! I’m a continental knitter, that’s the way I was taught when I was 8 years old and everything else just doesn’t come natural at all! Love the video!!
I actually wish that I had learned how to do continental knitting from the beginning. It's so hard for me to undo how I learn something!! Tangled yarn is nooooo fun! Thanks so much!
I taught myself to be a continental knitter because of tendinitis due to throwing. Now I need to teach myself a different technique for crochet because it is causing my current flare-up. Cute rhyme and a great idea. I love the little dress!
Throwing could be a reason for my bursitis in my right shoulder. I need to take the time to learn how to continental knit! Glad you like the dress! 🐰🐰🐰
Hi Elise. I just watched your video on stranded knitting. I did one little dress with stranded knitting, but I’m sure I didn’t do it all correctly. But your tutorials helped tremendously! Thanks so much!!!!!
That is wonderful! I'm so glad it helped! I was doing it wrong for quite some time myself. I finally spent some time really learning the correct way to do it and it made all the difference!
Elise, I just love your videos! I could literally watch them all day, you always make me smile😁 This one was SO helpful for me right now as I’m trying stranded knitting for my LCR bear’s dress and I was a bit intimidated. Thank you for all the tips! I love the last bit where Olive was playing with your work lol that’s what my cats love to do too!😂 They love the yarn especially wool (I think because of the scent) Hope you’re well and happy. xx
Thank you so very much! I appreciate your kind words so very much! And I have noticed that about Olive loving wool yarn more than cotton or acrylic! I have a friend who raises her own sheep and she sent home her very own wool and Olive loved it!!! 🐑🐑🐑
@@EliseRoseCrochet You are so very welcome🤗 Awww that’s so sweet, you gotta love cats♥️♥️ I actually just figured out last night that the dress bodice is knitted in the round😱, I couldn’t find many tutorials for stranded knitting on DPNS so I’m basically kind of winging it with the bits of knowledge I already have😬 It’s tricky but I think it’s coming out okay so far . . . we’ll see😂
I'm an English knitter too but I wish I could do continental ... but thats Brexit for you lol Great tips as always, looking forward to the next installment. These could also be applied to crochet I guess 😍💖💖
Hi Elise. I love the dress and the colors of it may I ask which brand and size of yarn you used to make it? Thank you for all your hard work. Thanks Shelia from NC.
Hi I love your channel and your videos are sooo helpful. I've gotten back into knitting during theses troubling times to pass the days and I am so happy I discovered your channelDo you have any tips on the sleeves of the dress? Love from Connecticut.
Thank you so very much! When I'm doing the sleeves I always do the second way that is recommended, which is the M1A, I believe. Makes it much easier for me. Hope that helps!!
I dont know how to knit but it looks great and relaxing:) what do you think is harder? Crocheting or knitting? I am so addicted to crocheting. I don’t know if i will start knitting someday 🙄 your knitted bunnies are sooo cute 😍
I do think knitting is a bit harder but since you're already a crocheter it isn't quite the learning curve. I think it's awesome being able to do both, that way I can knit or crochet any project I want!!
Hi! I’m from NC too!! I am Interested in trying this. I would like to make a Fair isle sweater for a doll similar in size. Is it possible to convert large charts to smaller size? I don’t really know where to start. 😢
I am a converted crocheter and so continental knitting seemed to make more sense to me! When and why did you switch from crochet to knitting, Elise? Would love to hear the story! _ Caryl
Well actually I learned how to knit first! But it was before UA-cam and online help was available. So it was a couple of years ago that I started crocheting in earnest. Then I've gone back to knitting. I actually share the whole story on the Bhooked podcast. I'll find the link for you if you care to listen!

I am a crocheter and have made 5 of the characters from Animal Friends of Pica Pau by Yan Schenkel. I am a beginner knitter and so wish that i could knit those adorable bunnies with dresses that you make. I wonder if you know of any knitting amigurumi books that you could recommend. Thanks for the video. I love your channel. 😊
I love Animal Friends of Pica Pau! She has a new book coming out in June, I think! Someone shared a gorgeous knitted toy book with me and I cannot remember which one it is! Let me go hunt around and see if I can find it! It was gorgeous!

thanks for vid , there is no mention of what needle or size to use . please help. wanting to try knitting.
The needle size will depend on what pattern you're using. I was using sport weight yarn and 3 mm knitting needles. 💜
So beautiful! Wondering if you ever do duplicate stitch for individual motifs. 😊
I haven't...:yet. I am working on a new project and will have to learn it! Hoping it's not too difficult!
