I design my own patterns, and you answered a question I constantly run up against---how to increase (at the shoulders of a circular item) without making the front or back longer on one side than the other. I've only been knitting about fifty years and I'm still learning. Your tutorials are so clear, concise and probably my favorites to watch.

This has become my “go to” video for increase stitches because of the excellent comparison of 3 types. My one suggested improvement would be visuals to identify the 3 (just numbers). That would make it easier to scrub through the video to find a specific stitch. That said, this has been very helpful so thank you! 🙏🏻 (And, yes, I have returned here several times because I am not an expert knitter so I am in need of review/refreshers on how-to between projects! 😝) 👍🏼

Thanks a lot for this great and helpful video! I actually discussed different increases about a week ago with a knitting friend and am now thankful to show her this as an explanation what left and right increases are. As a continental knitter I often find it difficult to follow some more complex stitches you demonstrate because I'm not really familiar with the english knitting. So it would be great if you could show a continental version of the more complicated things you demonstrate in the future.

Tyler Pittman I am 95% sure those are part of the Knitter's Pride Symphony Dreamz's set. Beautiful laminated birchwood needles. I'm as sure as I think I am because I use them myself and they are fantastic. Not only high quality, but KP cords are just phenomenal for both regular and magic loop knitting, and the needles themselves are this glorious slickness somewhere between average plant-based needles (like bamboo) and slick, treated metal (like Addi's); so not sticky, but not fly-off-the-needles slick either. I am obsessed. And to seal the deal, they're crazy, crazy affordable for an interchangeable set. I feel like I'm *this* close to reaching advanced knitting status, and I still think they're exactly what I want. Definitely check them out.

Have you heard if the twisted yarn-over increase? It ends up looking similar to the Make 1 increase but is a bit more invisible because it doesn't mess with the tension of the surrounding stitches as much. It has both left and right-leaning versions and is worked in a similar way to Make 1 increases, but it takes two rows to complete rather than just one.

Thank you for this very helpful video tutorial. I found this very informative, as was the decrease video you posted last week. I was wondering if you were planning on producing a video which matched increases and decreases? For instance, if I were making a blanket using M1L and M1R as the increases, which decrease method would you pair with it? Being a new knitter the answer is not obvious to me and I would appreciate the insight of an experienced and talented knitter such as yourself. Crystal

Crystal Kopec - thanks for the note, and the suggestion. I personally like to keep things simple, and I rarely find a need to use an increase or decrease other than the six (three incs, three decs) I've shown in these two videos. If I was matching up M1 stitches with decreases, I'd use k2tog and ssk. Really, they're the nicest looking, easiest to work, easiest to remember, and good for just about everything.

Thank you for the tutorials, they are super helpful to a beginner like me who has taken on a bigger project that I was ready for! (thankfully the sweater is for my dog who doesn't care what it looks like!). I am assuming that lifted increases are similar to kfb in that you need to account for the stitch used in the pattern? The pattern I am using is very simple, just says increase on both ends of the knit rows, so I have been working the increases 1 from the edge... again the puppy isn't too concerned how it looks but is that the best place to add the increase? thanks
