- How To Add Knit Stitches At End Of Row (2 methods - one for each end!)
Adding stitches in the middle of a row can be done with increasing techniques such as m1, kfb or yo.
So adding stitches to the end of a row uses casting on methods. But which method to use? There are literally hundreds of casting on methods documented. I'll show you today how I recommend adding stitches to the end and beginnings of rows.
Here's a link to the jargon demos pdf, as mentioned in the video, so you'll have all the jargon videos right at your fingertips and never be confused by abbreviations again. :0)

Far Behind, by Silent Partner
I’m a 12 year beginner and I’m making a sweater for my Barbie doll the video was very helpful for the making of the sleeves . Thanks a bunch !:D
Yay! I’m so glad this was helpful for you! happy knitting 🧶
I've knitted (self taught) for over 35 years and I am a knitwear designer, yet didn't know how to do the cable cast-on until now. Brilliant. thank you!
Hi Nikki! That's great news - welcome to the world of cable cast-on. :D You'll love it :D happy knitting!
Me too 🤫
Wow. I've been knitting for almost 40 years and have never seen that type of casting on at the end of the row. Thanks Hannah. I'm subscribing.
Glad it was helpful! happy knitting 🧶
Hi! So lovely to hear that this was an eye-opener for you. Welcome to the gang! Happy knitting 🧶
I've watched other videos to see how to cast on at the end of a row but couldn't follow them - this is genius and I picked it up immediately. Thank you ❤️
So glad it helped you! Happy knitting 🧶
This is by far the best illumination I've found on the internet.
Thank you so much
Hi Gudrun, so glad it was helpful! Happy knitting :D
I can’t thank you enough for posting this as well as your comment about the types of increases for the middle of the row as opposed to the end of the row. My pattern does not specify which method to use. It just said inc at the end of the row and continue to work in pattern. Since my project has tons of mini cables, I was frantically searching for the correct method to use so I wouldn’t mess up my work. Four knitting books and many videos later, I came across your technique. Finally, a solution!!
Fantastic! So glad you found this when you needed it. Happy knitting 🧶
Thank you, Hannah! A pattern I’m working requires stitches to be cast on both sides just like on your video, and I was clueless! (I’m a beginning knitter.) But, thanks to you, I’m no longer confused about the method am feeling confident about continuing my project.
You are so welcome, glad it was helpful :D
Thank you Hanna. I have been looking for a good way to increase a row without it looking "messy" and this methods works great. I had to increase/add in 35 stitches and keep it in pattern. The second method works perfectly and the end result so smooth. You rock!
Thanks for letting me know! i'm so happy you found what you needed. :D happy knitting!
I love your 2nd method of casting on. Thank you! I've watched several videos and just couldn't get it till I watched to yours.
Great! so glad you found this one helpful. Happy knitting 🧶
Thank you for taking time to make such a helpful video. I am a self taught knitter and some problems emerge from my own mistakes.. Your video cut to the chase; it was easy to follow and on point. Thanks.

So helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! happy knitting. :)
The cable cast is something new I need for my current project! 👍🏻
That was perfect timing! happy knitting. :D
Ahhh wonderful! I’m so happy I found you. So many patterns assume we know how to do these things. The only question I have - after adding the 2nd set of add on cast ons, you said to knit through just like the other. Do you mean knit all the way across, through the main part as well as the first set of add ons?
Most patterns will tell you how far to knit, but generally it's the whole row, including all the new stitches.
I want to Knitting a slice of bread u save me 😍😍 ,thank u
That's a fun project! Happy knitting 🧶
Nice video
Thanks, Satrangi 😍 Happy knitting!
thankyou i used to knit alot but i forgot how to add on
So glad you found this! Happy knitting 🧶
Just what I needed thank you!
Yay! so glad you found it when you needed it. happy knitting! 😀
Thank you so much
You're welcome. Happy knitting 🧶
Thankyou Hannah. Your tutorials are consistently clear and to the point with excellent clarity in videos.
I'm lost to find an answer anywhere for a pattern wording which is unclear to. Hope you don't mind just clarifying for me. Pattern for coat hood reads: Work in SS Inc 1 st each edge of next row 6 times. Does this mean I increase 6 st at beginning and 6 st at the end of the same row? I've never seen this before in a pattern and hope you don't mind me asking. Thankyou.
Thanks, Louise. I’m so glad you find the tutorials helpful.
I’m thinking this actually means:
For each of the next 6 rows increase a stitch at the end and a stitch at the beginning. Total increase, 12 sts over 6 rows.
Have a look at the photo and the shape of the hood, and look ahead to find the finishing instructions. Sometimes the sewing you’ll have to do once you’ve finished the knitting will give an idea of the shape you’re supposed to be making.
Happy knitting 🧶
@@KnitWithHannah thankyou very much Hannah.
Just what I needed, coz I have a BRILLIANT idea! 😂
Great! Happy knitting 🧶
I need to add stitches to both ends of my work. If I add stitches, knit across my work, then add stitches to the other end, won’t my work be lopsided? The 2nd side I add stitches to won’t be on the same row I initially added stitches to.
Usually with a larger garment, where we often do this, the slight difference (it's more like half a row) won't notice at all once completed. This is how all patterns big and small do this technique. happy knitting 🧶
Thank you so much for this video! I’m new to Knitting and this helped a lot.
One question. Once you add on the stitches at the end of the row, you simply knit the stitch until the original?
Hi Tori, yes, you just follow the pattern - it will tell you whether to knit or purl or use a stitch pattern over the stitches you've just added. Happy knitting! 🧶
Very helpful, would this work if when casting on , finding out not enough stitches?
You’ll want to start over if you’re right next to the cast on. Or do a make one/kfb when you find there are one or two stitches missing.
I’ll usually start again from scratch, as a proportion of the whole knit casting on is a small effort. Happy knitting 🧶
Terrific video! A question: how would you add a stitch on both sides in a purl row?
For a single stitch I'd use a make one, for multiple stitches I use the same methods seen here, as the shaping is 99% of the time at a seam, so it won't be seen once the knitting has finished.
Thank you for the video.
My pattern says to cast on at both ends of the row, so am I right in understanding that effectively I have to cast on at the end on of one row, turn, work across, cast on at other end, turn and work across?
Yes, correct. That should be all sorted. happy knitting 🧶
Thanks.
You're welcome! happy knitting 😍
I don't understand the bit about why the long tail is better than the cable... I'm not sure which to use for my hat.
Hi Charlie, I'm not sure that I was talking about which cast on, other than for adding stitches in this video. But I always use a cable cast on for a hat, it's stretchy and a strong long-lasting for a brim.
Hi my add ons look so uneven i have to cast on 5 stitches at end of 2 rows then the same with 6 stitches then with 7 stitches
They likely will look uneven until you come to seam, that's when it can come together and you'll find it's hidden as you sew. Happy knitting 🧶
Thank you for sharing these techniques. QUESTION(S): Will these cast on's work when using circular needles? Or are these cast on's only for straight needle knitting. Thank you in advance for reading and answering this question/concern. If they don't work, do you know of any ways to cast on for circulars? Oh yes, I have also liked and subscribed to your channel upon finding it today/right now.
Hi, yes these cast ons will work on circular needles. If you'd like to learn more about knitting on circulars I have a short course, 'Circle Skills' that will help with the foundations of circle knitting. academy.knitwithhannah.co.uk/circle-skills
@@KnitWithHannah Thank you I'll look into it. I've been a knitter for years and have been away from it for about 7+ years. Getting older I am very rusty and trying to reaquaint myself with knitting again and techniques. Thank you again.
You’re welcome, happy knitting! 🧶
Super!
So glad you liked it! Happy knitting 🧶
How do we know, how many stitch we need to add ?
I hope you can answer me 🥺 because my knitting progress (scarf ) went weird it’s not square 🥲, the edge look kind of triangle
Hi Fuzzy Bee, it sounds like the Beginner Knitting Help video playlist might help: ua-cam.com/play/PLnqw36aiAI0gTYxZdtkjCxDjBxoI1txqC.html
I’d also suggest casting off ( ua-cam.com/video/3pKVKM7V5W8/v-deo.html ) and starting over as the first pieces that any knitter knits will likely be a bit wobbly. When you start again you’ll likely have straighter sides and you won’t need this video.
Any more questions let me know! Happy knitting 🧶
Hi Hannah. Do you help people that are struggling to understand a pattern?
Yes, Caroline. there are lots of abbreviation tutorials in the jargon playlist and I can help more specifically inside the membership. Both those links are in the description for this video.
What if I want to add stitches to each end evenly with the same method? Is it always going to end up one row less on one side?
Yes, once you’ve done an even number of rows, you’ll have the same number, but it will be slightly skew. Won’t really notice unless you’re using a very thick yarn. Happy knitting 🧶
@@KnitWithHannah thanks! I am using a heavy yarn so I ended up evenly adding stitches through the middle instead but it’s good to know for the future that I can do this too on lighter yarns :)
Turns out I’ve always done the cable cast on but didn’t know that’s what it was called. lol.
That’s cool, Jo!
what is the name of this stitch/pattern?
I’m knitting knit one two, purl one row, which is known as stocking-stitch or stockinette. Happy knitting 🧶
In Bengali u ll be called a ustad in knitting (means ur a teacher of the teachers)
Thank you Ananya! 😊
Oh
Happy knitting 🧶
How to add in the middle
Hi, would that be for a something like buttonhole, or just to increase a stitch or two at a time?
@@KnitWithHannah just to increase stitches but av seen a video u posted and liked thnx. also am your size body wise how many stitches shud i start the band with and how many stitches to add after the band.also for the arm too.
@@pyarachani6736 glad you found the right video! It's so complicated to decide how many stitches for different projects - if you're unsure, definitely look for a pattern.
