Your first row after picking up the stitches was 9 stitches, I was confused until I paused and counted what was on your needle. I'm only mentioning it, to maybe help other adventurous beginners. Thank you for showing us this beautiful technique ❤
You;re a really good teacher -- you remember what it's like to be a newbie at something, explaining all of the things that a newbie will have questions about. Teaching is something a lot of people are doing these days, but not many have the skills to do it well. I will be back-- thanks!
Thank you for that clear knitting-anatomy lesson. I’m a new knitter and I always prefer understanding what I’m doing rather than just following directions. This was a major light bulb, thank you!
I learned to knit at age 7, from my paternal grandma. She was a sergeant. She wouldn’t let me knit on in my pattern until I could read my stitches to her. It was the best gift ever. My knitting life was so much easier my entire life. I was braver, could fix errors, and recognize mistakes early. I am so glad you encourage knitters to “read” their stitches. Love your videos.
Game changing video for me. ThAnk you for the slower speed talk and knitting. Every detail of what you do and how to do it is so easy to see and replicate. You have a gift well beyond knitting
Hi Suzanne, I only just found this video and thank you. I have shied away from doing crescent shawls because I really don't like the beginning tabbed CO. This is such a wonderful method. I find it fascinating that many designers I see in Ravelry don't use this method. Go figure. This works great and have used it multiple times. Won't ever start a tabbed CO without it. Thanks again.
You think of EVERYTHING! This video is TERRIFIC!! It has made all the didference in making my shawl look so much more polished!! I can’t thank you enough!! You are the best!,💕 Linda
I would just like to endorse what most of the people who have watched and commented have said and that is you are very clever at designing and teaching. (Also at technology). I am so pleased that you explained about the crescent shawl and the modifications. I am also so very grateful that I found your group on Facebook and all of your tutorials. You are an Angel but without wings. Thank you.
You've given me hope that I can still knit a shawl despite my growing memory problems, and I'm very grateful. I can't wait to try it! Thank you so very much!!!
Thank you very much for giving us all the modified start to the crescent shawl. This past week I have been working on tabless methods to avoid any hump below the center back neck. AND YOU HAVE NAILED IT. Thanks ever so much.
Thank you of the middle of the France. I understand how to stich a crescent shawl. Your tuto is clear. My English is too bad to express how I am Glad. Viel DANK für das Tuto. Endlich verstehe ich.
Awesome! Thanks! If you haven't subscribed to my channel yet, please do, and share my videos with your friends. There is lots more to come! Happy knitting.
Thank you for this video Suzanne. I just bought a pattern and had no idea what to do. After seeing your video it all makes sense and I have to confidence to begin my shawl. Really appreciate your tutorial. Best wishes from Australia.
Hi, Suzanne! I am thrilled! I watched your "modified garter stitch tab" video; you are a great teacher. Yesterday, I began my first crescent shawl, using your method. It is wonderful! As I might say, "Slicker than goose grease; the slickest thing there is." Thank you so much for sharing. You now have another devoted fan following you! Stay well & safe! pj stitches!
Thank you! I always appreciate finding a tutorial given by a Continental knitter like me. Depending on the stitch involved, it helps a lot when trying to determine finger placement. Thanks again! Thumbs up!
what a great improvement, you're such a great teacher. Thanks for giving me the courage to try this, as i tossed my work many times with the garter tab. Thank you and greetings from the Netherlands
I would REALLY love to get the pattern you were working for this shawl. Might you know when I can find it? I know it's been a while, but figured it can't hurt to ask. Thank you for all your spectacular tutorials, you're an absolute wealth of information! All the best to you, Suzanne!
Hi, Suzanne. I just finished another shawl and wished I had this video before I started this one. But, no worries. I have tons of yarn to cast on another so I will definitely use this tutorial. Your version is so much prettier. Thanks so much for another great video. I have learned so much from you.
Very cool. Thank you! Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already - ua-cam.com/users/knittingSuzanne, and share my videos in your social media groups. Happy knitting.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Your modified garter stitch tab is genius! I would've hated that lump of garter stitch blocking the horizontal flow of eyelets! So I'll definitely put this tip in my Knitting Toolbox for future use, and especially when I knit the full-size version of the beautiful Crescent Shawl! Thanks Suzanne! I appreciate Plan B.
Hi Suzanne l love to watch your videos and listen to you. You are the best teacher for me. My english is not very good but l can understand every thing. Thank you so much. 😀 ❤️
So amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. Your way looks much nicer. I will definitely be starting my cresent and triangle shawls this way from now on.
Excellent tutorial!! I recently finished a crescent shaped shawl with fingering weight yarn that took quite a long time. So disappointed to see that center hump so pronounced. I think blocking made it worse. I also finally understand where and what kind of increases are used to create both crescent and triangle shaped shawls, thanks to this informative video. Seriously, thank you so much!!
You're always cxcellent, my dear! Although myself a knitting teacher I'm vory pleased to get some new ideas or new technics. You give them the best way I ever can like! Thank you! Be blessed! Yours, Conny L.
I subscribed. What a wonderful shawl. Please show how to change colors. I do not want a single color shawl. Best tutorial I have ever seen on knitting. *****

Hi, Suzanne. I just ran across this video as I was trying to learn the garter tab. I'm a new knitter--45 years of crochet and 2 weeks of knitting. I love to make shawls so I'm thrilled to find your videos. Could you recommend a pattern for me? I have learned many things and am anxious to make something. I have all kinds of yarn in my stash with needles, so no limits there. Again, thanks so much. I really enjoy your teaching!!

Hi, Mrs Bryan, thanks for the video. I'm from Brazil and a beginner . Here, we don't have so much tutorial about knitting shawls, I don't know why. I love so much the tutorial about shawl and its lacy, it's gorgeous! But, unfortunately, I don't find too little pattern, video or tutorial in portuguese. I know a bit English language and still it is more difficult for me. I see you and I so much thankful. God bless you and yours hands!

Excellent tutorial. I would like my crescent shawl to have even longer thinner ends. Where would I add increases if I wanted to do this? At the end of the garters?
I'm going to use this method to start a crescent shawl and then switch to a lace pattern. I found some nice lace patterns but have not found a shawl pattern I want to use so I'll make up my own using your directions to start and increase until I have enough stitches for the lace repeats. Thanks.
Hi, here is a second post written by me, cs it's a different theme: So, btw: you work with the fantastic HiyaHiya Needles, I guess: Great! Tthey are my favorites, from all needles of the world! I do so myself and I've dremeled the adapters and use the connectors of the red lace mini and Small - steel needles of Chiaogoo. Dremeling away the last tiny „step“ at the ends of the needles and dremeling 2 screw - rounds away I can use the S and mini HiyaHiya - cables as well as the original cables. Most of the time I use the mini cables. The HH - cables in mini and in Small do always fit in S, in mini from 2, 75 mm. I use the shorties of Chiaogoo, red and blue cables lace (!!!) and dremele them fitting to the others. It's more difficult cs the mini connection is tricky. So there I use the original cables to tips. And: there are some straight needle - parts which one can use to create longer needles up to straight needles for HiyaHiya. I use them with my shorties and, most of all, to create very long needles with little cables to knit lever style. I love to create, without with both kinds of sets you have all you can whish, too! Bye, dear, be blessed!
Thank you for a very clear lesson. I've never made a crescent shawl. The place where I feel the cold the most is the outside of my upper arm. I've seen movies with the shape I think would work best. Not triangle or crescent. But generous in length all the way down to the elbow. Sometimes on Brit TV period pieces they are even worn over coats. What shape might those be? I'm on neither Rav or FB. Won't join for private data reasons
I happened upon this video and enjoyed it so much! I subscribed immediately! You explain things so well. I wish I had learned to knit in the style you do (carrying the yarn in the left hand). I've tried, but it is really difficult to change. I am a nervous knitter, b/c I don't know how to pick up dropped stitches and undo mistakes. My projects consist mostly of sweaters for my dog. What is a "lifeline", anyway? You are amazing and I look forward to watching more of your videos.

Excellent tutorial. I would like my crescent shawl to have even longer thinner ends. Where would I add increases if I wanted to do this? At the end of the garters?
You would add increases on the edges every time, both right side rows and wrong side rows.. Experiment with a swatch first.
I'm going to use this method to start a crescent shawl and then switch to a lace pattern. I found some nice lace patterns but have not found a shawl pattern I want to use so I'll make up my own using your directions to start and increase until I have enough stitches for the lace repeats. Thanks.
