Oh no I am so sorry to read this. Everyone’s brains work differently, but this video might possibly help: how to tie a slipknot (ideal for knitting) ruclips.net/video/oPzlZCIDsf8/видео.html though it is from the same angle 🤞🏽

Thank you so much for watching 🥰 happy knitting 🧶

Oh gosh it’s so hard to give advice without seeing what is going on. Quite a common problem is the last stitch getting caught up on the needle when you get to the end of the row, so it is always worth counting how many stitches you have when you finish a row to make sure you are working on the right number. Also, if the last stitch is loose, don’t worry about it, it tightens up when you knit the next row and as you get more confident with knitting the tension generally becomes more even. Sorry I can’t be more precise about your issue, hopefully this is some help?!?

Glad it was helpful! 🥰

You are so welcome! 🎃🥰

@castawayknitting Again! Thank you. I made a couple pumpkins. I also made larger one, sage green, off white. Beautiful.

@ oh brilliant! I think they look great in loads of different colours all bunched up 🥰

I just use whatever I have lying around as long as it matches the size of the needles. This was 5.5mm 👍🏽🎃

Yes, you can! Thank you 🥰🎃

(And the type/thickness of wool?)

So sorry, I have only just seen this comment. Just make sure that the size of wool matches the size of the needles. Step 1 in this series talks briefly about this - have a look at the belly band of the wool and go for something like 6mm with 6mm needles to match. The thicker the wool, the faster it knits and the chunkier the finished product 👍🏽

@castawayknitting OK. Thanks! 🙂👍

Thanks so much 🥰 I hate knitting tension squares, but after many years I have realised it is worth it 😖! Amazing what a difference needle size makes 🥰🥰

You are so welcome

My pleasure 😊

😖oh dear, this sounds like a bad experience! Though I think it’s happened to most of us 😢🫶🏽

It’s just a wee line of green wool in a running stitch up the side, this is a quick view of it, hope it makes sense 🙏🏽 thanks for asking 🥰 ruclips.net/user/shortsN8Tkvv00GYA?feature=share

Any time!

You’re welcome 😊

Glad you think so! 🧣🧶

Brilliant! I’d love to hear how it goes 🥰🧶

The easiest way to remember! 🥰🧶

You're so welcome!🧶🙌🏽🥰

Any time!🧶🥰

I like this method as you don’t need to worry about how much tail you need when you cast on, so it’s great for when you have to cast on a lot of stitches. It is also great for beginners as it is quite straightforward for keeping the stitches even. I hope you get in well with itx thanks for watching 🥰

You can and it can create a very loose knit which could work as a shawl. Or if you are a new knitter and your knitting is very tense and tight, bigger needles help 👍🏽🧶

🧶🥰

Thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰

You’re welcome 😊

Surprising isn’t it? I learned that the hard way (one huge glove 😂) 🥰

You’re welcome 😊

Crazy isn’t it? I learned the hard way by accidentally making HUGE gloves to begin with 😂🙏🏽

So glad! 🥰

Thank you 🙏

I agree 🧶🎶

You’re welcome 😊, so glad you found it helpful 🥰

really helpful@@castawayknitting

🎃 they are so addictive aren’t they? Thanks so much for your comment, it has totally made my day 🥰🧶

Such an easy to follow pattern 🎃

That’s right, there is a full tutorial on my page, but this is great for decreasing the number of stitches you have, for example if you want to make a hat taper in at the top 👍🏽 thanks for looking 🥰

Me too!! Just makes me smile 😊

It sure is! 🥰🧶

I really think knitting is a kind of magic 🥰🧶🎃
