Thank you for yet another phenomenal tutorial. The light bulb turned on for me - I see now why my purl stitches got twisted whenever I picked them up and always had to knit them differently on that first pickup row. Explaining the why behind this is so helpful so I thank you for that. As others have mentioned in the comments, the graphics were also very informative so merci beaucoup to Francoise and Andre as well. Thank you so much, Suzanne for teaching us how to be more mindful knitters. I love the engineering behind knitting. It brings so much joy and freedom.

Thank you! This video was a godsend. I am grafting the bottom onto a cardigan and it has ribbing panels on each side. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working and your tutorial made me realize that I had to reduce one stitch on the back needle immediately before the ribbing. Everything lines up now and looks great. 👍

I love the way you explain the stitch anatomy prior to beginning grafting! It is so clear to me now. I only wish I’d had this video to refer to when I was attempting to graft a cable swatch for the PKC. And I’m sure my problem was with putting the stitches on the back needle, as you pointed out.

Its so great to see new videos from you, Suzanne. I have been unable to knit for months due to arm pain, had cervical spine fusion in March and now doing PT. Hope to be back to knitting soon. Watching these videos makes me very eager to knit again!

What a wonderful tutorial! I have to perform some knitting "surgery" soon on a sweater that has vertical 1 x 1 ribbing columns at each edge and I could not figure out how I was going to graft them back together! This has made it so clear and I am now happily practicing my new skills before tackling the sweater :) thank you so much for this video!

Thank you for this! I am a bit dyslexic and a combination knitter. It always confuses me when someone says 'knit wise' and 'purl wise' or as if to knit or as if to purl. Watching close up the path of the needle with the terminology is extremely helpful. I would really love a video of this with a side by side comparison of using the knitting needle to manipulate the yarn. It seems to me that the inserting the knitting needle is the exact opposite of where you insert the darning needle. I think this is why I get so turned around in my head with these types of directions.

Margaret, try thinking about it this way - when the stitches are off the needle and laying out flat before you, you can see that the right leg and left leg of each stitch is flat, right next to each other. If you were to take your knitting needle and go from front to back through on of those stitches, it would bar knitwise. If you were to go from the back to the front, it would be purlwise. For those who are combination knitters this still holds true. It is just that the stitch is on the needle in the opposite stitch mount. So if you think of going through the stitch from the front, that is knitwise, from the back, that is purlwise. The same holds true for the tapestry needle.

Hey, Susan; Hope all is swell - haven't seen hide nor hair of you in a while. Thought of you this morning having watched a bobby-pin technique for laddering-down ... it keeps the ladders in order/place for easier pickups ... and wondered if you knew about it. I dunno if the link will work on here, but I'll add it into my comment's comment - as, in past experiences, sometimes YT will cancel a post with a link in it.

This video came out at a perfect time for a sweater I’ve just finished. I’m thinking it is too long. Contemplating whether to rip back (not really excited about since I did a tubular cast off) or remove some rows above the ribbing. The sweater was knit top done and circular. The top down I don’t think will be a problem. More concerned about completing the Kitchener when this was performed in the round. Any suggestions? Love this video! Great job explaining 😊

Thank you, Suzanne, for two excellent videos! Your explanation and illustrations of why the top and bottom loops aren't both stitches was an "Aha!" moment for me. I look forward to your 2x2 rib grafting video, but was hoping you could take it a step further and graft 2x2 knitting in the round as many bottom up sweaters are knit this way. I have a bottom up sweater knit in the round that needs length. The body is mostly knit with some purl stitches that line up with the purl stitches on the ribbing. If I add length to the body after the ribbing, is it possible to graft the two together so that they line up? What do you do with the extra half stitch when you get back to the beginning of the round?
@SuzanneBryan
Жыл бұрын
When you are knitting in the round, the ½ stitch at the end is actually abutted against the ½ stitch at the beginning, to create a full stitch. If you visualize that flat piece having been cut open, you can see how that stitch would have been cut in half. So half on one end and half on the other end. Does that help? I have a whole series on grafting that I am planning, so stay tuned for more.

Side question, unrelated to grafting. Can you teach a class or make a video on making a collared half-zip pullover sweater? I want to learn how to create a tidy zipper facing. I’m using Elizabeth Zimmerman’s half-fisherman’s rib stitch for the body but don’t have a pattern for the zipper. I wanted to buy the Lanark sweater pattern but it’s no longer available so I’m just making my own drop shoulder recipe. Do you already have a closed zipper facing video? Also, I would pay for a pattern or class on this subject. Thanks so much 🙏🏻

May I ask how to graft on provisional cast on stitches. Thanks.
@SuzanneBryan
Жыл бұрын
Yes, in this video - I set it up with the one piece of fabric and removed the center row. Those loops remaining on the top half, are the same as the loops that you would have after you remove a provisional cast on. This leads me to think that a video on how to remove a provisional cast on and pick up the stitches would be a good video. When you are working with plain stockinette, it is not an issue, but when you have knits and purls going back and forth, then it becomes more difficult to see how to pick up those loops in the correct stitch mount. Great question. So, the answer to your question, is that just as I picked up those loops from the top half, that is the same way you would pick up the loops from a provisional cast on.
