#Cdd Knitting Decrease

Without getting into too many details, slipping stitches inaccurately in a knitted project will likely change the texture and appearance of your fabric. This can be as simple as rearranging by slipping a stitch one way or another in a decrease for a smooth/flatter decrease, or slipping the edge stitch of your fabric for a selvedge! Its good (arguably important) to know and understand the direction you’re slipping your knit stitches :) You will also need to slip stitches accurately in your setup rows for a sewn Italian bind off on most sweaters you knit! Happy knitting! #knittersofinstagram #knitting #strikke #sweaterknitting #knittingtips

A folded hem creates a very neat and tidy edge 🙌 Here, I’ve used a provisional cast-on, so I have two sets of live stitches that I can easily #knit together with the 3-needle join 🧶

When #knitting in the round, you’re essentially knit in an upward spiral. Because of this, changing colours creates a visible “jog” at the start of each new stripe. This is how you can even out the jog: ✨ Knit to the last stitch of the round ✨ Yarn over with the new colour (bring it up behind the working yarn) ✨ Knit the last stitch in the old colour ✨ Continue with the new colour—don’t twist the yarns ✨ On the next round, knit the yarn over together with the last stitch 🧶🙌

A two-stitch decrease with no directional lean. Step 1. Slip two stitches together, knitwise, to your right needle. Step 2. Knit one stitch. Step 3. Pass both slipped stitches over the knit stitch and off the needle. #thingsbethmakes #knittingvideo #knittingtips

Just discovered a fun easy to make design feature - raised knit stitches! This is super easy to knit, and creates almost like an i-cord in the middle of round! If you want to knit this in flat in stockinette, then row 2 would be normal purl stitches. What do you think? Follow @thelooptheory_ for more knitting tips!

Here is a neat and stretchy needle BIND-OFF for 1x1 rib. Repeat the same 4 steps across the row. 1. Start with a purl stitch Insert the needle into the purl stitch purlwise as if to knit. Pull the yarn through - leave the stitch on the needle. 2. Go through the two knit stitches Insert the needle through the front legs of the knit stitch before the purl and the knit stitch after the purl. Pull the yarn through. 3. Return to the same purl stitch Insert the needle into that purl stitch knitwise as if to purl. Pull the yarn through. 4. Drop and adjust Slide the two stitches off the needle. Gently snug the yarn to match the tension of the rib. Repeat these 4 steps to the end of the row until all stitches are bound off. 🧡Like this video and save it for later🧡 #knitting #tricot #strikk #knittingtips #knittersofinstagram

3-needle cast off An easy way to join #knitted pieces, ideal for shoulder seams 🧶🙌❤️

I'm picking up some stitches and adding something fun to this sweater. Watch the full video on my YouTube channel now. #knitting #workinprogress

Are you getting big holes at the underarms on your top-down sweaters? 🧶 Try this method to avoid them: Knit up the underarm stitches. At the body/sleeve junction, pick up 2 loops: one back to front, one front to back, then knit the sleeve sts. Pick up 2 loops the same way and knit up remaining underarm sts. On the next round, eliminate the extra loops: slip the last st before the junction knitwise, slip the first loop purlwise, knit together through the back loop (improved SSK), then knit the next st together with the remaining loop. (This loop will be twisted, and therefore it may be hard to get your needle into these stitches…) Tighten your yarn. Voilà!

How to fix a dropped stitch in #knitting In stocking stitch, it’s even easy to pick up a dropped stitch without a crochet hook 🧶

This is a simple way to tidy up the edges of your knitting by working the last stitch differently. Here I’m demonstrating the technique in ribbing, but it works beautifully with stockinette too. A small change that makes a big difference to your finished piece! We'll be using this simple technique in our upcoming cardi around the collar. #knittingtechniques #howtoknit #beginnerknitting #knitspiration #knittingcommunity
