    My friend's mother taught me how to knit when I was 11 years old, but I have not done much knitting. This stitch is enchanting. Just discovered your channel. You knit the way I do, so it is easier to follow your instructions.

      Great! I mainly do crochet on the channel now but there is a number of knitting tutorials from previous years 😊

    Thank you for your video! And you actually helped me improve my Continental Purl stitch. I had to slow your video to really see your technique, but it is wonderful! I have knitted for years and to accomplish the purl I used my left pointer finger to shift the yarn, but discovered my tension was bad. I searched every idea for improvement on UA-cam, and quite by accident while refreshing my memory of the mock cable, there it was! You use your right finger to anchor the yarn thus smoothly purling. Thank you! Thank you! I would suggest that you do a video on “How I do the Continental Purl” ! Those basic skills that eventually improve speed and good tension are what a lot of us really need. Hope you enjoy my comments!

      Thank you very much for your comment! I'm happy to hear the video helped in knitting the purl stitch. Making a slow video about the continental purl is a great idea! I like to make it the way I do on the video because that's how I learned it when I was a child. Many people also knit it in such a way that they don't lift the yarn to the front as I do. I would probably need to demonstrate both!

    Hello, thank you for your tutorial! How many stitches do will I need for a baby blanket?

    • @TuulaMaaria
      @TuulaMaaria  Рік тому

      That would depend on your yarn and how large a bably blanket you want. I would make a swatch about 20 cm wide and then set that on a tape measure to calculate how many stitches.

      I don't know what Russian purl is. In this I just knitted the way I alwys do, never in the back loop. This video shows more how I knit. ua-cam.com/video/1pmBYWAIqJA/v-deo.html

    I cant find the link that tells us how many stitches to start with. Does anyone know what it is?

    • @TuulaMaaria
      @TuulaMaaria  9 місяців тому

      The link in the description of that video is the general guide for calculating stitches, not for this project in particular. You can start with any number of stitches because the cable takes 3 stitches and then you can decide how many cables and how many stitches in between.

      My finished measurement is 24 by. The pattern says to cast on 102 stitches using number 8 needles but I did not get my 24 in wide
      The yarn itself cause for a size 9 needle

    • @TuulaMaaria
      @TuulaMaaria  8 місяців тому

      That can be caused by many things but one could be that your needled are too large for your yarn, then you easily get stretchy stitches.
