I’m trying to make flowers…. there’s a pattern on ravelry.comfor them and really want to make them. I’mstill trying but I keep dropping the needles and the stitches always fall off =(
aw! what are you trying to do with them? icord? cabling? im a bit crap at both of those =s x
thanks! I’m trying to learn how to use dpns right now…. and I’m getting no where….
aw, thanks! i worked it out though
happy knitting x
Make sure your yarn is on the right side of your needle. It should be at the front for purl stitch and the back for knit stitch. Also, remember that the purl on one side comes up as a knit stitch on the other side. I can’t realy explain it but try it and you’ll see!
Hope this helps
when i turn it around to do the next row, it goes all knotted! help, someone please =/
xxxx
um that is kind of hard and kind of esay
no, she is correct. I did exactly what she said and my basket weave came out beautifully.
She is explaining it wrong. You knit on a purl and purl on a knit. If your last row ended with a knit, your next row would start with a purl. Same principal for basket weave which she also explained wrong.
Do you start each row with the stitch you started with or do switch to the other one?
yay this rocks!! expert village is the best! thank you!!!!!
finally, a rib stitch video that I can understand… thanks !
thanx so much! Very helpful and easy to understand!
Hi, Michelle. Greetings from a 49 year old guy in Scotland. Thank you so much !! I finally cracked the purl stitch from watching your video. I’d watched several other vids on youtube many times each, but just wasnt’ getting it. Am now purling away quite happily. Will my next scarf really be rib stitch? Or, maybe box stitch !
Thank you, that was super informative.
