Knitting Toys 101: How to Knit & Purl
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2019
- Knit and purl are the two foundational knitting stitches. You will need to learn them both to be able to knit adorable toys. But first we are going to make a pit stop for a little encouragement. Afterwards we will peek at my newly organized yarn. And finally I will share the teeny tiny vintage hangers I found at my local antique mall.
To purchase the pattern for the bunny rabbits please visit the Little Cotton Rabbits Etsy shop at: www.etsy.com/listing/15080366...

👍v
I have failed at knitting many times. Not ashamed to try again. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm gonna give it another go.
You're so welcome! Hope it helps! 🧶🧶🧶
Your work is truley Beautiful! I found your tutoral motivational, helpful and clear to follow. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations with us and igniting a passion for knitting i forgot i enjoyed
As a child used to knit a little then i moved on to Embroidery ( Needlepoint Tapestry ) Honestly for the life of me, i can't remeber why i ever stopped!
Fast forward 25 years ......... i can't stop knitting its my Fouth Day :)
Look forward to seeing more of your creations
I'm so glad you're rediscovering you're love for knitting! It is so addictive!!! 🐰🐰🐰

Your enthusiasm is contagious! Love the little rhyme and I may use it to help others. I learned using English technique but had to retrain myself to use continental knitting due to tendinitis in my elbow.
I thought the rhyme was really good as well. I think it could help a lot of people. That is interesting about the continental method helping. My tendinitis is so much better now that I'm mostly knitting and not crocheting. But it can aggravate a cyst I now have in my wrist. Icing my elbow and wrists seems to help me so much!
👋
Again wonderful information and insperation❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ❤️
Thank you for a lovely knit/purl video! I’m sure you’ve helped a lot of knitters with this.
Your knitted critters are so darling, it makes me want to make some! I have a ton of WIPs, though, so I may have to work on them first! Or not…!🥰
Lol! Thank you! I'm so glad you liked the video! And it's hard not to love those bunnies!! 🐰🐰🐰
The poem I learned for purling:
Under the fence
Grab the sheep
Back we come
Off we leap
So cute!! Love it!! 🐑🐑🐑
I am gonna try knitting this way.
I hope it helps! ❤️❤️❤️
Great tutorial and yarn organization tips!!! I wish you'd get over here and sort mine out LOL Aren't those hanger the cutest thing, that store is exactly the kind I love to wander through (as you know 🤣😍). I reckon you could make hangers yourself and decoupage them with cute vintage paper.. see I'm putting project ideas in your head.. I'm like a virus 😈🤣🤣😘😘
Lol!!! A virus I wouldn't mind catching! That is such a great idea about the hangers! How fun would those be to make! 😘😘😘

i started learning how to knit a while ago, and then i made a big mistake... i bit off a LOT more than i could chew. like WAYYYY too big of a project. i was determined to create this blanket for my cat but man i kept losing motivation and then when i got back to it a few weeks/months/years later i would make mistakes being out of practice, and the cycle would repeat... FOUR YEARS it took me to finish this blanket, the ugliest little thing you'll ever see, and now you know what, my only pair of knitting needles are free again and i'm determined to get back into it. wish me luck, i've got a whole winter break to work on my knitting!
Awww! I'm so impressed that you finished it!! 👏👏👏
@@EliseRoseCrochet haha thanks! i hope i can stay into knitting this time. my dream is to make a pair of miittens.
Making my first practice swatch!!! Cable cast on and knit several rows and now at the learning purl!
That's amazing!!! Knitting creates such a different fabric than crocheting, doesn't it? 🧶
@@EliseRoseCrochet my husband asked why I was making carpet 🤣
@@rebeccadoty5864 Lol!!!!
No me canso de apreciarlos❤️
muchas gracias! 😘😘😘

Hi Elise I would like to see more of your knitting & crocheting your little animals amigurumi .
I have lots and lots of videos on my channel about amigurumi!! ❤️❤️❤️
@@EliseRoseCrochet thank you for letting me know. I will check them out. I am new to your channel and I just love all your little animals. They are so cute I would like to make some to . I love amigurumi
I love your plushies and clothes! Knitted dollies like these are becoming really popular in Norway, but unfortunately, there aren't many knitting patterns for these things available in Norwegian. If you would like to have the patterns translated so you can reach a wider audience, please do let me know! :) I have already translated patterns for my mother who can't speak English :)
That's great! Thanks so much! These little toys are designed by Julie Williams from the Little Cotton Rabbit. 🐰🐰🐰
I taught my children: "Through the Rabbit Hole, go around the Tree, up Pops Bunnie, and Off Jumps He".
Now that is adorable!! I love it!! What a wonderful way to remember how to knit! 💓🐰🐰💓🐰
👋
I have zero knowledge about knitting but after looking the knitted toys in youtube i really want to learn it.. your both knitted and amigurumi toys are awesome.. Where to find your knitted toys patterns..??
Hi, your bunnies are absolutely beautiful. In this tutorial, do you have a free pattern for the bunny wearing the purple dress please?
Thank you! All the resources are listed in the description box! 🐰💜
Una belleza

I am knitting my first little cotton rabbits rabbit pattern and I have loved it until it came to attaching the legs. Is there any suggestions or tutorials you can guide me to? Thanks so much Julie
I try to match up the stitches and seam them up and down. Make sure to check the Little Cotton Rabbits blog, she has a lot of good tutorials!! 🐰🐰🐰
Hi Elise, thank you for the videos they are so inspiring. Always bring joy to my heart and smile to my face. I have a question maybe too dumb to ask. I was following a free Sunny Bunny pattern and the pattern say x amount row of stockinette stitches. I like to know does a row of stockinette refers one row of knit stitches and one row of purl stitches total as one row? Or one row means only knit stitches, another row of purl stitches? This question really bothers me. Because if I make mistake I would double the length of the piece.
I actually don't think that's a dumb question at all. I looked it up and found this quote from Wool and the Gang: "Let's learn how to knit the stockinette / stocking stitch. This stitch is made up of one row of knit stitches and one row of purl stitches. By alternating these two types of stitches you end up with a really classic and beautiful texture and pattern." I'm assuming based on that quote that it includes the knit row and the purl row. Hope that's what it means. Can you look closely enough at the photos to count the rows? Sorry I can't be more help! That is confusing to me too!! ❤️
Hi Elise, Would you be able to show how you sew up the shoes of your little cotton rabbits please? I can't get it right!! Thank you, Sam.
Hello! So sorry that I'm not permitted to show any of the parts of the Little Cotton Rabbits patterns. You may want to post on the Little Cotton Rabbits groups to see if you can get some support there! 🧶
Hi, Thank you so much for your prompt reply. Will do! I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing the lovely items you've made. All the best for the UK. Sam.
I wish I was your next door neighbor!
Awwww! Thank you!! ❤️❤️❤️
So I want to learn to knit just to make the knit amigurumis. I have crocheted a lot but just recently started with amigarumi. The knit animals appeal to me much more than the crocheted. I think I prefer dolls in crochet. But anyway I was wondering if trying an amigarumi right after I learn to knit is too ambitious? I am more motivated to learn for this purpose than to make clothes etc. although so really do like some of the color work you can do with lint as well. Also what about needle sizing with amigarumi. I usually use quite a bit smaller size crochet hook than the recommended size when I do amigurumi. Also what would you suggest for start up needles. I do like to start with quality equipment to not make it more difficult because of sub par hooks or needles but can’t afford the very top of the line. I use Clover Amour crochet kooks which aren’t cheap but not as bad as some
I think you should jump into knitting toys. I recently did an entire video about beginner knitted toy patterns, I'll link it below. I would use the needles that are recommended for the pattern, it's a little different with knitting than crochet and "most" of the time you don't need to go down in size, as long as you're using the same yarn or a good substitute. ua-cam.com/video/V8FGe3Uc89g/v-deo.html

I love your videos! hey, can you make a video please on how to read a pattern knitting for toys? Because I've seen some of them asks for gauge, and I have no idea about what that is...
Thank you so much! Most of the time for knitting toys you don't need to worry too much about gauge but for making any kind of garments you do. This is a great article explaining it all: sheepandstitch.com/what-is-knitting-gauge/ Hope that helps! 💖💖💖
+LePetitSaint Crochet Also I've came acrossed with this: "TENSION 15 rows and 11 stitches over 5cm"... How do we do that?
For the purl technique, here is my verson of the poem:
In through the back yard
Around the face
But naughty lil' Jack
Can't keep the pace
Sorry if It has no sense but for me, it works to memorize the steps 😅
Love it! Thanks for sharing! 🧶🧶🧶
Hola que hermosos me gustaría saber como hacerlos, te escribo desde Colombia. Que precio tienen.
Muchas gracias! Aquí hay un enlace a los patrones. www.etsy.com/shop/Littlecottonrabbits 🍄🌺🍄🌺

How long does it take to complete an animal on average?
It's usually anywhere from 10- 14 days... I think! Some might be a bit faster and some slower. 💓💓💓

Please skip the music in the background when she talks.
Thanks for the feedback!
But - NO! You can't knit like that. *shocked*
Oh goodness. What do you mean?
@@EliseRoseCrochet Well, you take the yarn in your left hand, first between your pinkie and your ring finger, from back to front, then between your middle finger and your index finger from front to back. Roll around your index finger twice, and your index finger will control the tension of the yarn. ... In your right hand, you have only the needle, You never move the yarn, you only ever move the needle, and use it to pull the yarn through the stitches as needed.
I never realized that people in other countries were doing this any differently.
Yes there are two different ways to knit, there is English knitting (which is what I do) and then continental knitting which is what it sounds like you do. In English knitting you "throw" the yarn.
