    This is the best tutorial I’ve found online for the selvedge. Thank you so much!!

  • @elanaseptembear7216
    @elanaseptembear7216 2 месяца назад

    How does this change when if I want to change colors on my new row? Should I not worry about selvage when changing colors over a stripe?

    • @FallingbloxDesigns
      @FallingbloxDesigns 2 месяца назад

      I generally don't work color changes all the way to the edges but I do have one scarf where it was necessary. Because of the shape and size of body stitches vs (stretched) selvedge stitches, the selvedge color changes ended up a little out of alignment with the horizontal stripes. That's just going to happen, because you can't make a color change on a pair you're slipping rather than working. You can see what I'm referring to in the third photo on this Ravelry project: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/resistimus

    • @elanaseptembear7216
      @elanaseptembear7216 2 месяца назад

      @ Thanks for the example! The alignment isn’t too bad because it’s a two row stripe. The pattern I’m using has a one row stripe thrown in so at least one edge won’t have my color change, so I was looking for ways to avoid slipping on selvedge but I don’t think that’s possible. I might try stopping the color change right at the selvedge. Then at least the edges are consistent? Either that or knitting the edges together for the swirl which may look messier…

    • @elanaseptembear7216
      @elanaseptembear7216 2 месяца назад

      @ like on your Waverley pattern! if I keep the selvage edges consistent like that, hopefully it’ll come out nicely

    • @FallingbloxDesigns
      @FallingbloxDesigns 2 месяца назад

      There is no good three-color cast-on; I've tried. I recommend you cast on in two colors as usual, and then add the third color in the first row.

Oh, i was also able to do this bind-off with a crochet hook in lieu of a dominant hand needle for those of you familiar with crochet as well. ❤

    @valerieprice1745 11 месяцев назад

    One of the ancient Egyptian socks, 3,000 years old, has now been identified as two needle knitting. The idea that knitting is new comes from the progressive (Marxist) political ideology. The rarity of examples in textile archeology is likely due to rarity in the past, because weaving uses less yarn, and thus requires less spinning. In textiles especially, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

    Hello! I was researching my ancestors and one of them was a ‘doubler’ on the 1850 census. Any idea if this is what a double-knitter professional was coined as back then? I’m having trouble finding a true description of the term. Thank you!

    • @FallingbloxDesigns
      @FallingbloxDesigns Год назад

      No, but (according to a quick google search) you're not far off -- at least in the right field. according to a list of "Victorian occupations" a doubler was "A person who operated a machine used to twist together strands of cotton, wool or other fibre."

    I find the Italian cast on is easier for me. Your technique is great as well

    • @FallingbloxDesigns
      @FallingbloxDesigns Год назад

      The Italian two-color CO is wonderful if you want an invisible edge, but it's not stable so you have to make sure to do the whole thing in a sitting and immediately start the next row/round. I still prefer to teach and use this one, but keep the Italian one for specific uses. Glad you like both!

    • @FallingbloxDesigns
      @FallingbloxDesigns Год назад

      It could be, if you wanted to put purls into your mock-ribbing at the ends of the scarf, but it's not charted that way. It's just a 1x1 color pattern, not a texture pattern. It's meant to look like ribbing or tassels but doesn't have that kind of structure.
