this has been the best tutorial for combination Knitters that I've seen. Seeing the front and back of the work after each example is really helpful.

I have to have my mother watch this and save it because she has so many issues. She is left handed and was taught to knit like a right handed person but has always wrapped her stitches as in eastern knitting and trying to knit western knitting patterns. I am sure you have instructions on eastern knitting western patterns. Thank you.

This is the best video explanation of this style of knitting increases and decreases!!! I somehow taught myself to knit this way, because I thought it was easier. Once I figured out how to stop twisting stitches it worked great. I’m now learning lace knitting and it’s been a nightmare!! After seeing this video I know why!

That's because the hand you hold your yarn in (left or right) will not affect how the stitch is formed. The direction you wrap your yarn is what does that. For more information on the difference between a knitting style (how you hold your yarn - English, Continental, Portuguese), and a knitting method (how the stitch is formed to sit on your needle - Eastern, Western, Combination), check out the class - pattylyons.com/product/improve-your-knitting/

Super helpful. The only thing that I found a little confusing: when you are purling back at the end of the video, you are actually not purling eastern style, so you are not showing it the way most eastern or combination purlers would have done it. My guess is that many people who combination knit, do it because the purl is so much easier, you just push the yarn through the loop, without the forward flick of the indexfinger. Much faster, much less strenuous on your hands. (I am sure people wouldn't hate purling so much if they learned continental purling in the eastrrn style).

I just learned to knit and was having problems with rowing out, so I turned into a combination knitter and that worked great. but I only knew how to purl and knit and knew the other stitches would not work. So this was great!! I signed up for Roselle Tee Kal which is WAY WAY over my abilities but it was worth it as I'm learning so much anyway. I might never have the tee but oh well!!

There is not need for a one step right leaning decrease for combination knitters because the WHY of what it’s fixing is not needed. Really key into the why of a fix to understand it. It’s to solve the issue of the loose top stitch (stitch #1) because the next stitch you knit (stitch #3) only tightens the stitch underneath. For a right leaning decrease when you knit stitch 1 & 2 together it’s #2 that’s on top, so it’s tightened by st #3.

Also, fantastic explanations but, there seems to be a problem with the sound. It cuts out at 9:18 and doesn't come back til around 9:40.

This is a video for people that knit differently then many American knitters. There are many ways to knit and much of the world's knitters creates the knit and the purl differently then Western knitters, but patterns are all written for Western knitters. If this doesn't apply to you, don't worry about it, this video is not for Western knitters.

Great, isn't it? HH has got coloured cables in light blue so they can bee seen better!The HH - adapters l had to dremel the first 2 screwing - rounds away, too!

I guess I am not of the norm-I am an "Eastern" knitter for my knit stitches , but "Western" knitter when it comes to my purl stitches. It was the way I was taught when I was a young girl by a family friend.
@PattyLyonsKnitting

Are you sure??? An eastern knit stitch wraps the yarn over the needle and it would put the leading leg in the back on the next row, so to purl you would then have to enter the back loop and if you wrap over the needle (Western) that would put the leading leg to the front for the next row. So, if you are combining this way you'd knit through the front loop and wrap the yarn over the needle, then purl through the back loop and wrap the yarn over the needle.
