I’ve recently discovered your wonderful videos. After watching a few, I was able to quickly learn the Norwegian knit and purl techniques that Arne has demonstrated. Being able to knit this way is a life changer for me because I have severe rheumatoid arthritis. The Norwegian method is very ergonomic and I experience far less hand pain. Thank you for all that you do and for showing me that I can knit again. I’m also a dog lover and very much enjoy your fearless moose hunter, Freya😊
Not to worry about any thumbs down (but I see there isn't any). I am so grateful for Arne's instruction on Norwegian knitting and purling. I persisted in trying to learn it about a year ago and now I am very comfortable with it and it has improved my knitting so much. As Arne said, once you get the purl down, it is like a dance.
I just started a pair of socks with K1, P1 rib but will rip out and start again with the twisted knit rib. Always inspired by you both! Lots of love from Canada. I was part of the late Toronto bus in St. Thomas, Ontario last Dec. and you were so kind to us all. 🇨🇦♥️🇳🇴
I prefer the twisted knit rib - it looks more sleeker specially in socks! The Norwegian style of knitting is an elegant dance. Thanks for teaching all of us.
I am teaching myself how to knit the Norwegian way..thx Arne..thats a great rib stitch too..I have to do this because I am Norwegian and I can teach my granddaughter. I am learning new things everyday from your channel. ❤👍🤗🐾
Knitting should be like jazz - smooth. I like that it also raises the knit stitch and make it more prominant. Dance, Arne, dance. :) Have a great week guys!
I agree with you! The twisted rib always looks so neat, tidy and the knit stitch is nicely defined. I've used it for mitten cuffs, sock cuffs and the brim of a hat, all with great success. Bring on the thumbs UP!!
I am trying to knit like you Arne , and I am so nervous that my stitches are so tight 😊the other day I was knitting ok and all of the autonomy brain went blank🤷🏿♀️ I tried to remember and I couldn't😨you say is like a dance, for you Arne ,I will keep on practicing, be cos I am no quitter, I will master this dance my friend , and when I do I will always remember you to taught me how to knit . 😍😘😉
Good evening to you both. Well I loved today's talk about the twisted knit stitch I have used it in the past and it is a lovely neat stitch. You are both so funny you make our Sundays so enjoyable. It was lovely to hear Freja and her imaginary moose lol. I hope you have an amazing week and hope the storm doesn't do any damage to your beautiful home. Stay warm and safe and look after each other. See you next week. Kram x
I'm just learning to knit and I favour the Norwegian style of knitting, I find it easier. I never knew why 5 needles are sold together but after watching you, now I know why. Ty for showing this ribbing technique.
Maybe Freya is seeing my cat name Moose! 😂😂 I recently came across you guys looking for a couple of books on Amazon called "Saltwater Mittens", about Newfoundland knit patterns and your book "Norwegian Knits with a Twist" came up in my search. I've been following you ever since. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and sharing some of your life and heritage.
I am doing a sock pattern that calls for this ribbing for the very top of the cuff. Initially I hated this stitch because I was fumbling so much (we call it knit through the back loop), but I’m slowly becoming okay with it. 😆 Thank you for commenting that it makes for a skinnier knit…I was having a hard time understanding WHY the pattern designer was using this stitch, but wanted to stick with it.
I'm looking at you do the Twisted knit😀 I think it looks very nice. I'm also seeing how you hold your yarn😁 how you keep it in one place instead of bringing the yarn to the front😉like I do, I do the Continental style knitting I bring my finger to the front with my yarn to do the pearl stitch😏 as always hello Arne & Carlito's my 2 favorite beutiful people in the world😘 thank you for another wonderful video 🤗
Perfect. This is exactly what I needed. I just finished knitting a pair of ankle warmers to keep my ankles warm in the winter. I like the end result (I knitted cabled ropes for the first time), but am not completely happy with the ribbed edge. So I'll try the twisted knit stitch in my next pair of ankle warmers (in a different color of course). Thank you!
I’m trying to knit your sweater Carlos but I can’t see the chart very well in the book but I love it on you and thank you Arne for showing us the twisted knit stay safe x x
We have a huge problem with moose in Newfoundland, eastern Canada! They cause hundreds of highway accidents every year! We need more Freyas to scare them back into the forest!
Hello good evening from a very stormy Germany😯. Your tipp is as ever very helpful. I tried it in the minute. And what a wonder: the purl stitches became much more stronger because the way of the yarn is not as long as with the other method with putting yarn in front! SUPER!!! I will do it the Norwegian way now! Thank you very much, all the best for you and the people you love. Heartly Gitta from Germany🍀😇😇🍀🌈
@@ARNECARLOS Thank you very much for your good wishes💟 yes it is horrable at some places but fortunately in our area its calm..til now... I wish you all a lucky wonderful time with always creative work! And KNITTING is a therapie for the soul. I think I will do it even when I'm "invisibly"(they call it death) and together with my husband-darling😇😇💗. But in the meantime I will do my very best here, beeing happy and looking at all the wonderful things! Its all experience for "later"! Sorry for my story but its a good feeling to write this because you both are so nice people. Heartly from stormy Germany GittaLloreley🍀😇😇🍀🌈🌞
I love you guys and I now mostly knit true Norwegian style. I still have problems with the purl stitch though. I just need to practice more and then I will have it down.
Thanks so much for this video. I love making this rib. I thought it funny that I learned to knit continental through RUclips. I am very uncomfortable with my index finger in the air. Turns out that I hold my yarn and scoop up using the Norwegian style of knitting. Yes!!
Thank you that was very clear , I'm going to try that on my next pair of mitts. It's always lovely to see you both laughing together ! Have a wonderful week !
I love the banter you two have with each other. I am using the twisted knit on a raspberry stitch for one of my daughters scarf. She picked it out. Sophia even laid out the many colored yarns for it. Hope you have a great week.
I absolutely love watching your RUclips Channel! Cannot knit like you do, but enjoy watching you, your interactions, your creations, your style, your humor, your country, and on and on the list goes! You are fun! ❤️
I love it when you talk about moose. I don't see them in Southern CA! Maybe in a zoo :-( Love the twisted knitted rib video! Thank you! Who in the world could be angry with you guys??? Love you!
I knew about the twisted knit stitch but hadn’t really seen some ribbing done with it and I really like the look of it. It might have been nice for the dog sweater that I’ve started for my son’s greyhound. Of course, I’m also wishing I had won those Prym knitting needles you gave away a while back!!! ;} Anyway, I was interested in seeing how Arne purls because I’ve noticed before that his stitch making was a little different so I’m glad for the knitting culture lesson along with his demo of it. I will give it a try. I knit my stitches the same way but I usually bring my index finger forward and then catch the purl stitch with the needle so my finger does move a little bit. I love your videos and love learning new things!! Thanks for all the teaching!
Thank you! I just learned how to knit and purl through the back loop when closing yarn overs, so this was perfect! This showed me how to apply it to ribbing. Love you both and love your energy !
You are so right Arne! What is up with a finger in the air! I’m a Swedish knitter in Iowa. You taught me the wonderful way of purling, I love it. Thank you 🙏!
I love you guys! I knit a beanie with your technique ! I must confess that I have to slow the velocity in order to understand the intricate purl way 😆 Carlos is so faster! My daughter said her beanie is like an intelligent pillow because it returned to his form! And I knitted too one twined and is perfect!!! So I will dance and dance!💃💃💃
I love the videos. Thank you for sharing and I shall try the purl and twisted knit rubbing... and Freya’s vigilante moose alert is adorable . Sending many blessings to you all 💫💫💫❣️
Thank you for helping me to decide trying Twisted Rib for my socks cuffs, hadn't officially seen in a pattern but must have heard somewhere it was a good technique to use- about to try now. I've used in other knits, mostly cable patterns but not socks. I love how neat the twisted stitches look! Many thanks from Canada for all your great content!
Hello Arne and Carlos. I have been binge watching your videos and love your interaction with each other. ** Arne I live only 45 minutes from Dollywood so I hope you get to come visit there soon. I wouldn't travel from Norway to see it but if you are nearby, it is an experience.
Hi A&C my mother taught me that. She only knitted ribs with a twist saying it will shape better. Just like Arne. Don't know where she learnt it. My mother was born in Gothenburg:))) You two always makes me happy
Ahhhh, thank you for this way to do pearl... I have been teaching myself to do continental knitting because I learnt the English way in my right hand, but I find holding the yarn in my left hand difficult to keep the tension. Pearl is horrible, but this is much easier.
Thank you two SO much for teaching me how to knit the Norwegian way! I am 1/4 Norwegian with ancestors from Alesund and Hjorundfjord areas. Now I can knit the way they did. 😊 Now if only I had good access to wonderful wool locally like you do, but it is hard to find! Need to find a good source online with low shipping fees to Canada.
Just thought I’d tell you..... when a dog barks outside our cottage, I’ve started saying moose moose every time, and I haven’t explained to my husband 🤣🤣
I have been struggling with the purl stitch but I think Ive cracked it after this tutorial. I have been doing the twisted rib stitch as my tension is not great and this as you say make the individual stitches pop. Great video😁
Bittersweet story: my mom taught all three of her girls to knit as young as 5. Her knitting was exquisite. Fast forward three decades and my excellent knitter sister got a job in a yarn shop and was told she was knitting incorrectly. She re-learned and showed me. We were bewildered. Fast forward two decades and I find ‘Eastern European’ knitting online. It’s the way my mom knitted! She was correct, just different: knit in the back, purl wrapping the stitch clockwise. So when I see this renewed interest in twisted stitch, it feels so affirming.😊 and you are correct it makes the knit stitch Pop! My mom was taught knitting by an Eastern European woman!
Hei. Så fint å se at dere også bruker vridd rett. Vanligvis strikke jeg frem om tilbake, slik blir den vridde rette over vrangmasken fra omgangen under. Legger opp 1 maske ekstra som brukes å sy sammen med madrass sting i siden. Håper dette også er nytt for noen, kanskje ikke for dere to. This also work wonders on bought sides of your knitting, sawn together with madrass stitches 👍🧚♀️
Thank you for this demo, can one do a twisted rib with a 2 color corrugated rib? I’m struggling with the Norwegian purl. Please show that again sometime soon. It seems to flow very well from the knit stitch. Like a waltz Arne!
Hahaha, I was reminded of something my Ex used to do to joke around. He was a big riot, that guy. Well, must`ve been something I was attracted to in the beginning, lol. Anyway, he used to shout out and point with his finger in a random direction, when he wanted to distract you from something and go: "Oh look, a baby moose!" Hahahaha, so many times people fell for this. Maybe Freya is a little joker too ;-) lol. Love that ribbing technique you guys. Thanks for sharing. I will try it out on my next project. :-)
You guys are awesome! I really appreciate this. I recently made a sweater and could really use this for the ribbing on the neck. Now I will do this the next time I make my sweater! Thank you so much. Also ArneThat blue sweater with the white 8-leafed Rose is absolutely stunning on you! Carlos you look great too but that color looks really good on Arne! Happiest of weeks to both of my favorite knitters!!!

Use that rib all the time...my mom taught me...it’s a good one😁
You're right Carlos , you are a lot of fun to watch . Thanks Arne , for teaching us the "Norwegian " way
You are welcome Lesia!
Finally I have learnt to knit the Norwegian way 💕🙏 thank you Arne and Carlos
You are welcome!
Where have you been all my knitting life?? You, Gentlemen, are spectacular. Thank you for ALL of your wonderful tutorials
I don't think I've seen a kinder or more gentle soul than Arne has. A wonderful human being :-)
Thank you!
I’ve recently discovered your wonderful videos. After watching a few, I was able to quickly learn the Norwegian knit and purl techniques that Arne has demonstrated.

Welcome to our channel!
Tell them Arne bring it on. Lol you are so funny. I love all that you both share.
"It's only knitting" You're so right! Love it!!!👍

I love how a tutorial for twisted rib dovetailed into a bit of a chat on Norwegian (or, to be more precise Nordic & Baltic) knitting traditions.
Thank you!
Thank you Arnie and Carlos, glad Freya keeps you safe from the moose, love your videos!
She is a good guard dog!
This is my favorite ribbing for everything! Moose!!!✌🏻❤️🧶
😀😀
Dear Arne & Carlos, really really thank you!!! Finally, I could understand.
Arne I like your bring it on attitude!!! Thanks for showing me a new way of doing cuffs I think our use it because I like them tight but stretchy.
Good!
Thanks for showing how you tension your yarn Arne, will be trying this rib for socks. Carlos, don’t be too harsh on Arne. 🤪 Look, there’s a moose!
Always a moose.
Thank you for your video, twisted ribs are my favorite ribs for sweaters, mittens, socks. Such a great result!
Glad you liked it!

Thanks to Freya for keeping you safe from Moose attacks. Now you can safely teach me wonderful things.
That is a great way to look at it!
You two are enchanting
Hello Arne en Carlos .

Hello ArneCarlos
Thanks for this new stitch. One day a moose will come to your window and Freya will bark "I told you so."
We can't wait until that happens!
Hahaha love this comment! It will probably poke its nose through the window! And what a nose that’ll be! Then you’ll have to knit them a sweater!
We have a huge problem with moose in Newfoundland, eastern Canada! They cause hundreds of highway accidents every year! We need more Freyas to scare them back into the forest!
Arne is like "bring it on" :-D hahahaha be careful now

Yesss you dance with yarn and needles ... Love and learn so much with your excellent lessons 👏👏👏
Thank you Chiaretta we are glad you find them useful!
Freya is an EMWS (Early Moose Warning System). I am going to try that ribbing on my next sock, I like how it looks.

This may sound stressful and ridiculous but I sure wish you guys had a daily show.
thanks! this purl method looks difficult, but i tried it and it is so much easier to do!

We hope you enjoyed your week!
Hi y'all, Arne your snow flake death sweater is awesome! Thanks for the video!
Thank you Maria!
Thank you! I used this ribbing on a Fair Isle sweater that I made for my sister and I loved the elasticity of it!♥️
Yes, it looks great and makes the rib elastic. Did your sister like the sweater?
Oh yes, she loved it and it looked beautiful on her!
I'm getting back to knitting socks and I can'twait to try the twisted knit stitch, thank you for sharing it.

Anyway, he used to shout out and point with his finger in a random direction, when he wanted to distract you from something and go: "Oh look, a baby moose!" Hahahaha, so many times people fell for this. Maybe Freya is a little joker too ;-) lol. Love that ribbing technique you guys. Thanks for sharing. I will try it out on my next project. :-)
Thank you for sharing that fun story Christina!
You make it looks so easy Arne.
A lot of practice!
@@ARNECARLOS practice makes perfect. I know. Sigh.
You guys are awesome! I really appreciate this. I recently made a sweater and could really use this for the ribbing on the neck. Now I will do this the next time I make my sweater! Thank you so much. Also ArneThat blue sweater with the white 8-leafed Rose is absolutely stunning on you! Carlos you look great too but that color looks really good on Arne! Happiest of weeks to both of my favorite knitters!!!
Thank you for watching Dorinda!
